A new oil field was discovered in Việt Nam’s continental shelf by the Russia- Việt Nam oil and gas exploration joint venture, Vietsovpetro, on November 30, 2016.
Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Company Limited (BSR) signed a
contract on August 28 with UK-based Amec Foster Wheeler Energy Limited
to assist in the Dung Quat Oil Refinery expansion project.
Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai has urged the Vietnam National Oil
and Gas Group (PetroVietnam) to quickly restructure its operations this
year, following a prime ministerial decision.
Vietsovpetro, a joint Vietnamese-Russian enterprise for oil and gas
exploration, aims to complete the installation of the Tho Trang 01
(White Rabbit 01) oil rig at the beginning of July.
