The Gachsaran oil field is an Iranian oil field located in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province and is around Gachsaran city or Dogonbadan.[1] It was discovered in 1928 and developed by Anglo-Persian Oil Company. It began production of crude oil in 1930. The total proven reserves of the Gachsaran field are around 52.9 billion barrels (9.394 billion tonnes), and production is centered on 560,000 barrels per day (89,000 m3/d).[2] The field is owned by National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) and operated by National Iranian South Oil Company (NISOC).[3]
Production History
[edit | edit source]Gachsaran is a mature oil field that experienced its peak production in 1976. Production from the Gachsaran oil field is declining due to its mature status, with peak production occurring in 1976. Contributing factors include a lack of investment, sanctions, and the natural decline rate of mature fields.
