Apache said after completing an initial assessment of the impact of the blast, it hoped to have production back to its normal level of 315 million cubic feet per day by December.

“Our estimated timetable is to restore gross production at a rate of 180 million cubic feet of natural gas per day… by August 15, ramping up to 315 million cubic feet per day in December,” said Tim Wall, the managing director of Apache’s local subsidiary.
