Plant was kept on production near minimum rates to avoid need for full plant shutdown and safeout. 2. BPX stopped bringing production rates up. The GC informed PCC that the compressor would not be shutdown again to troubleshoot problems. BPX shut in all L.P production at 1730 hours to stop flaring. 3.
