Hydrocarbon production was 2.23% lower compared with the first quarter.
Natural gas production decreased from 62,600 boe per day to 58,700 boe per day, while the oil production shrank from 57.500 boe/day to 55,000 boe/day. The Brazi power plant was not operational in the second quarter because of the planned turnaround.
“The planned turnaround of the Petrobrazi refinery was prolonged by two weeks due to discovery maintenance. All units are gradually being restarted. We estimate the full impact of the turnaround on the Q2/23 Clean CCS Operating Result to be around mid-double-digit million euros. The Brazi power plant was closed for the entire quarter due to the previously announced extension of the shutdown,” the company said in a report to the Bucharest Stock Exchange on Monday.
