澳大利亚石油和天然气巨头桑托斯有限公司 11 月 29 日报道,暂时关闭了位于澳大利亚西部近海卡那封盆地的 John Brookes 平台。

暂时关闭是在从澳大利亚西部海岸约翰布鲁克斯平台到瓦拉努斯岛天然气处理设施的主要天然气干线的海底法兰发现小量气体泄漏之后进行的。   

日常活动中发现泄漏,一发现泄漏立即关闭平台和管道并撤离人员。

该公司表示,正在与客户合作管理供应需求,直到管道完全修复。巨蜥岛将继续降低产量,预计桑托斯的预期生产市场不会发生变化。

Leak Causes Santos to Shut Down John Brookes Platform

Santos reported that it could take up to six weeks for its John Brookes platform offshore western Australia to return to full production after discovering the small gas leak.

Santos Ltd. temporarily shut down its John Brookes platform in the Carnarvon Basin offshore western Australia, the Australian oil and gas major reported Nov. 29.

The temporary shutdown follows the discovery of a small gas leak in a subsea flange on the main gas trunk line from the John Brookes platform off the coast of western Australia to the Varanus Island gas processing facilities.   

Found during routine activities, the platform and pipeline were immediately shut down and personnel were pulled out as soon as the leak was observed. 

With this leak, it could take up to six weeks for the platform to return to full production, according to Santos.

The company said it is working with customers to manage supply demands until the pipeline can be fully repaired. Varanus Island will continue to produce at reduced rates and no changes to Santos’ anticipated production market are expected.
