The Sacha field has been in production for more than 50 years and has an average API crude oil grade of 24.9. It is managed by Petroecuador. For his part, Correa explained that the increase in production is possible thanks to the location of successful wells, techniques such as hydraulic fracturing, reactivation of closed wells, matrix stimulation, secondary exploitation, among others.
