TEHRAN (Shana) - The second offshore platform of South Pars Phase 22-24 Project was successfully installed on Thursday.
According to Pars Oil and Gas Company (POGC), the HL5000 barge installed the 24A satellite platform, weighing 2,300 tons, at its designated spot in the Persian Gulf in a matter of two weeks.
Push-pull technology was used to transfer the platform to its designated spot by an FLB124 barge.
Once fully operational, the platform would supply 14.2 million cubic meters per day of natural gas.
Last month, the main platform of Phase 22 came online.
Farhad Izadjou, operator of phase 22-24 project at South Pars gas field, said Platform 24A was the most developed platform ever to be installed at the offshore gas field.
He said Iranian experts carried out designing, construction, installation and commissioning of the platform and domestic manufacturers supplied most of the data-x-items used for building the structure.
Phase 22-24 is being developed for production of 56 mcm/d of sour gas, 50 mcm/d of methane, 2,900 tons/d of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), 2,750 tons of ethane, 75,000 barrels/d of gas condensate and 400 tons/d of sulfur.  
The project is being carried out by a consortium of Petrosina Arya and Iran Marine Industrial Company (SADRA).
