Recently, CNOOC commenced production at the 16-2 oilfield / 20-2 oilfield joint development project. Located in the Eastern South China Sea, the project is part of the Liuhua cluster.

The Liuhua oil fields project includes the joint development of the Liuhua 16-2, 20-2 and 21-2 oil fields. The three fields lie in the South China Sea in water depths ranging from 380m to 430m.

Last month, CNOOC said that its profits in the first half of the year plummeted by nearly two-thirds as the Covid-19 pandemic affected fuel demand. In the first half of this year (H1-2020), CNOOC registered a profit of $1.5bn.

In June, CNOOC announced that it made a significant discovery of Huizhou 26-6 in the Eastern South China Sea.
