MOSCOW, March 15 (Reuters) - Tengizchevroil (TCO)
restored oil output on its Tengiz oil field in Kazakhstan to
normal levels after a fall during unscheduled maintenance early
in March, a company representative told Reuters in an email on
Wednesday.
Chevron-led TCO said all oil production trains on
the oil field were now online and output was back to normal, it
said.
Daily oil output on Tengiz was down by 11% from March 1-6
owing to unscheduled maintenance on one of the production
trains.
Oil output on Tengiz was up to 645,000 barrels per day (bpd)
on March 10, from 563,000 bpd from March 1-6, according to two
sources familiar with the daily oil production data.
Chevron holds a 50% stake in TCO, Exxon Mobil owns
25%, Kazakh state firm Kazmunaigas holds 20% and 5%
belongs to Russia's Lukoil .
