BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 25. The Iranian Offshore Oil Company (IOOC) has carried out some repair work on well ARK-1 at the Resalat oil field and re-launched the well, Trend reports referring to the company’s website.
According to the report, extraction from well ARK-1 has been suspended for some time due to the failure of the pump. The mentioned pump was replaced in the well for 12 days. This operation was carried out with the ‘Sahar 2’ drilling rig.
"In fact, the operation and a number of repairs were carried out by larger drilling rigs. However, the sanctions imposed on Iran's oil industry no longer allow it, and for the first time it was implemented with the ‘Sahar 2’ drilling rig," the report said.
Iran's Resalat oil field is located 85 kilometers south of Lavan Island in the Hormozgan Province. Reportedly, Iran extracts 46,000 barrels of oil from this field per day.
