HANOI, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Vietnam will blend crude produced at the ConocoPhillips-led (COP.N) Su Tu Vang oilfield into its Su Tu Den stream, boosting overall output by 60,000 barrels a day in 2009, a Petrovietnam official said on Wednesday.

The official reiterated a third-quarter 2008 start-up date for Su Tu Vang, which will initially pump about 30,000 bpd before output ramps up to a higher plateau. He also said a new Su Tu Den Northeast field would deliver 30,000 bpd sometime in 2009.

"Both have the same specifications at the current Su Tu Den so it is likely they will be marketed (for sale) as Su Tu Den," the official said on Wednesday.

Su Tu Den's output now hovers around 60,000 bpd, he said.
