The underwater inspection of the oil platform in the Central Azeri field, suspended by the Azerbaijan International Operating Company due to gas leakage, started today, said SOCAR president Rovnag Abdullayev.
"The platform has technical problems, due to which its operation has been suspended. This is a gas leakage. Today, the divers will descend to the sea floor and we will define the place of gas leakage", said he.

It should be reminded that gas leakage occurred on September 17 and the staff was evacuated. The Central Azeri field production made 270,000 oil barrels daily in average.
