     <p>The first cargo of crude from Statoil's Siri field off Denmark will reach the Mongstad terminal and refinery near Bergen on 11 April.</p> 
     <p>"Since this is our first Siri consignment, we'll initially process a small proportion mixed with other crudes to check its properties," explains staff engineer Eivind Blindheim in Mongstad's production planning unit.</p> 
     <p>Siri lies 130 nautical miles west of the Danish port of Esbjerg, and shuttle tanker <em>Navion Clipper</em> will take a day to carry the initial 270,000 barrels to Norway.</p> 
     <p>The field began operation on 1 March, and currently produces 25,000 barrels of oil per day. This output is due to reach a daily plateau of 50,000 barrels during the summer.</p>
