Stones also had a better month and achieved 70% of nameplate capacity. It\u2019s interesting that five leases have come on line and then have effectively been killed off in this thirty month period: Amethyst (a small gas field that died after sputtering along for about six months, and not shown as the flow was so small), one lease in Lucius, Kodiak, one lease in Caesar\/Tonga\/Tahiti, and one in Rigel. Dalmatian South production fell immediately after start-up and was offline for a couple of months but came back in June (there are plans for subsea pumping to be installed but I don\u2019t now the present status).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/peakoilbarrel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/GoMJunePOB002.png\" alt=\"chart\/\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The big drops have been for BP, with Thunder Horse off line for part of June, and for Anadarko with the Constitution shut down extending into a second month (I think a bit longer than was planned).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/peakoilbarrel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/GoMJunePOB003.png\" alt=\"chart\/\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/peakoilbarrel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/GoMJunePOB004.png\" alt=\"chart\/\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GoM June Production Update Production Production for June by BOEM was 1631 kbpd and by EIA 1636, compared with 1673 and 1659 kbpd, respectively, in May.
