Exxon Mobil Corp has restored crude output at its nascent project off Guyana’s coast after addressing problems with gas reinjection equipment, the South American country’s environmental regulator said on Friday.
Output at the offshore Liza field, which Exxon operates in a consortium with Hess Corp and CNOOC Ltd has been restored to between 80,000-90,000 barrels per day (bpd), after falling to between 25,000-30,000 bpd, according to Vincent Adams, head of Guyana’s Environmental Protection Agency.
