China’s largest oilfield maintains steady crude oil output in Q1

China’s largest oilfield, the Daqing oilfield in Heilongjiang Province, northeast China, has maintained a steady level of crude oil output in the first quarter of this year despite a decrease in its natural reserves, a senior company official has said.

“The oilfield pumped out more than 10.6 million tons of crude oil and 670 million cubic meters of natural gas in the first quarter, basically the same as that of the same period last year,” said Sui Jun, deputy general manager of the Daqing Oilfield Co. Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PetroChina.
