Sinopec cuts gas output at Puguang field after pipeline fire
7/21/2016
(Reuters) China's Sinopec Corp. said on Thursday it had cut daily well-head production from its Puguang gas field in Sichuan province to 4 M cubic meters after a landslide a day earlier triggered a fire on a trunk gas pipeline.
The company also said commercial sales from the field has been reduced to 2.2 M cubic meters a day.
Puguang is Sinopec's largest domestic gas producing field.
