	1/23/2012 - TNK-BP BEGINS OPERATIONS ON LAN DO FIELD DEVELOPMENT
TNK-BP has commenced its first offshore drilling operations on the Lan Do field development project offshore Vietnam. Lan Do field, located 28 kilometers east of Lan Tay Platform in Block 06.1, will be developed using two vertical subsea wells at a water depth of about 607 FSW (185 MSW). The subsea wells, which are presently drilling, will be tied back to Lan Tay Platform using a single 12-inch flow line. Gas production from Lan Do, which is scheduled to come on stream in the fourth quarter of this year, is expected to bring 2 billion cubic meters of gas annually to sustain Block 06.1’s current production of 4.7 Bcm.
