South Sudan plans to raise production to 290,000 b/d in the 2017-18 fiscal year, which runs from 1 July to 30 June, finance minister and former oil minister Stephen Dhieu Dau said on 27 January. This is substantially higher than the 220,000 b/d the country was producing before the outbreak of fighting in December 2013, and almost three times the current volume being marketed by the government and its joint venture partners.According to trading data seen by African Energy, a total of 3.3m bbls of crude were due for lifting in February, equivalent to 118,000 b/d.
