Russia-based oil and gas giant Gazprom Neft has commissioned its 10th production well (P-07) at the Badra oil field, a report said.

With production volumes at the newly launched well now at 6,527 barrels per day, its commissioning has allowed daily production levels at the field to reach 67,000 barrels, added the Iraq Business News report.

Three other wells were also commissioned at the field earlier this year, collectively producing 24,000 barrels per day. Drilling of four further wells — P-10, BD-2, P-14 and P-19 — is currently ongoing, with construction expected to be completed in early 2017.
