Yadanar offshore gas project platform to undergo maintenance

The Ministry of Energy is planning to conduct maintenance over the weekend for the Yadana offshore natural gas project platform, ministry sources say.
During the maintenance process beginning tomorrow, only 130 million cubic feet of natural gas can be produced for local use. The Yadanar gas project can produce 150 million cubic feet of natural gas in running condition when not under maintenance, according to the ministry.


Despite the reduction by 20 million cubic feet of natural gas, some gas-propelled plants under the ministry are also under maintenance. The ministry continues to distribute natural gas to gas turbines in Yangon Region and in other factories that run with natural gas, the ministry says.

On September 21, some faults in compressor A and B in the Yadanar gas project were discovered and gas production was suspended for maintenance at that time.

Meanwhile, the ministry intends to complete the maintenance as soon as possible. It is planning to flow 50 million standard cubic feet per day into 24-inch gas pipelines using high pressure mode, according to the ministry.
