Badami Oil Field
Template:Short description Template:Infobox Oil field The Badami oil field is an oil field in the Alaska North Slope. The field is about Script error: No such module "convert". east of Prudhoe Bay and about Script error: No such module "convert". west of the western border of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge 1002 Area. Badami was discovered by Conoco in 1990 at the Badami Number 1 well. The Badami pipeline was constructed to connect the field with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System, more than Script error: No such module "convert". away. The oil field is described as a complex and discontinuous reservoir containing heavy weight oil gravity ranging from 21 to 30 degrees API.[1] Initial cost of development was approximately $300 million.[2]
BPXA began production in 1998, but production was suspended in August 2003. BP cited the field's poor performance producing only Script error: No such module "convert". saying it was not sufficient to offset costs. Production resumed in September 2005 on 6 month production and 6 month recharge cycles using technique's BP developed specifically for Badami.[3]
