BP Thunder Horse Ramps Up To Over 300,000 BOE/D In Mar

Emerging from years of technical problems, BP PLC’s (BP) Thunder Horse platform has significantly ramped up its oil and gas output – making the company the largest producer in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

A document on BP America’s Web site said that the deepwater platform was producing about 300,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day in March – up from the 200,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day the company reported in February.

“It’s a huge boost,” said John Parry, an analyst with IHS Herold.
