Zhaikmunai income up in first half of 2008

(SRI) - Kazakh LSE-listed oil producer Zhaikmunai said on Friday its net income rose 22 percent year-on-year in the first half of 2008 to $17.6 million, thanks to higher oil price and growing output.

“Production volumes increased 7 percent for the first six months of 2008 to 892,000 barrels,” the company said in a statement. At the same time, revenues from oil sales nearly doubled to $77 million, it said.

Zhaikmunai also said it had made six commercial discoveries in its licence area in northwestern Kazakhstan and submitted reserve estimates to the government.
