Vietnam Wants to Produce More Oil to Prop Up Economic Growth
[Dow Jones] Vietnam wants to boost its crude oil production in the second half of this year to help the country prop up its economic growth, after global crude oil prices have shown signs of recovery. Deputy Prime Minister Trinh Dinh Dung on Wednesday told state-oil firm PetroVietnam to try to exceed its initial output target set for the year, PetroVietnam said. Dung told the company that the economy is facing numerous challenges in the second half and wanted PetroVietnam to try its best, including by streamlining its structure and investment projects. PetroVietnam is among the largest contributor to Vietnam's state budget. The country's economy grew 5.52% in the first half of this year, far lower than its growth target of 6.7% for the full year. Vietnam's crude oil output was 18.75 million metric tons last year.
