According to news service Shana, the Phase 17 platform is in its pre-commissioning stage and will deliver sour gas by January 2015.
The two phases combined are expected to produce 50 MMcm/d (1.77 tcf/d) of natural gas, 80,000 b/d of gas condensate, and 400 tons/d of sulfur.
Both are operated by a consortium of Industrial Development and Renovation Organization (IDRO), Iranian Offshore Engineering and Construction Co. (IOEC), Oil Industries Engineering and Construction Co. (OIEC), and SADRA Co.
