Zakum oil field - Zakum Yuden (English spelling)
An oil field located off the coast of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It was discovered in 1964 by Abu Dhabi Marine Area (ADMA), a joint venture between British Petroleum (→BP) and Française des Pétroles, in the southeast of the Umm Shaif oil field. The ultimate recoverable reserves (→Recoverable reserves) are 1 billion barrels (1 barrel is about 159 liters ). Production began in 1967. The crude oil has API gravity of 40 degrees and sulfur content of 0.9% by weight, making it a light, low-sulfur crude oil in the Middle East. It is shipped from Das Island along with Umm Shaif crude oil. Secondary recovery by large-scale water flooding is planned. Japan Oil Development joined ADMA in 1973.
