The field started production in 2017 (OGJ Online, Aug. 30, 2017). Initial development included the drilling of six wells, construction of the Hollong plant, and pipeline construction.
In addition to the planned wells, second-phase development will include expansion of the gas processing plant, more pipeline construction, and an increase in production to 55 MMscfd.
