Santos reports Indonesian Q1 production

Australia-based oil and gas firm Santos Limited has released its 2014 first quarter report. The following is an edited excerpt of the report on the company?s oil and gas production in Indonesia.

Production
Santos? net entitlement to gas production of 6.2PJ was lower than the corresponding period with new production from Peluang offset by lower entitlement at Oyong and Wortel and a planned shutdown at Maleo. Combined Wortel and Oyong gross gas production for the quarter was 78.5 mmscf/day, with gross production from Maleo of 59 mmscf/day.

Development projects
Peluang (Santos 67.5%, operator)

Sanctioned in February 2013, the Peluang gas project is located adjacent to the Maleo gas field, offshore East Java in Indonesia. Peluang is a single horizontal well development with a minimum facility wellhead platform tied-back by pipeline to the existing facilities at Maleo.

Gas production from Peluang commenced in March 2014, and the project was delivered ahead of schedule and on budget. Gross peak production from Peluang is expected to be 25 million standard cubic feet per day. (end of edited excerpt)
