摘要

The ROD integrated oil project entailing the development of several fields in the Berkine basin has run into further delay.According to the operator,BHP Billiton,which has a 36.04% interest in the project in association with Sonatrach,productivity at the construction site has been lower than expected,as a result of which the fields are now expected to enter production in the fourth quarter of this year.
