Canadian firm Husky Energy said construction of a wellhead platform and pipeline infrastructure at the liquids-rich BD fieldis, in Madura Strait block, offshore East Java, is about 45 percent complete.
The company said in a statement Tuesday that an FPSO is being built to process the gas and liquids production from the field, and a rig procurement process has been completed.
"The field is on track for first production in 2017," Husky said.
It explained that a tendering process is under way for a floating production vessel and related engineering, procurement, construction and installation contract to develop the combined MDA-MBH fields in the Madura Strait.
"These fields are expected to be progressively brought on production in the 2017-2019 time frame. A plan of development has been approved for the MDK field, which is scheduled to be tied into the MDA-MBH fields in the same time frame," the firm said.
Combined net sales volumes from the BD and MDA-MBH fields are expected to be about 90mmcf/day of gas and 2,400 boe/day of associated liquids.
A 3-D seismic program on the Anugerah block offshore East Java was recently completed. The data is being evaluated to determine the potential for future exploration activity, the firm said.
