f Utilizing Sequence Stratigraphic Concepts to Define New Plays in NW Sabah Basin

NW Sabah basin, located in offshore of northwestern Sabah continental margin, is one of the most prolific hydrocarbon producing basins in Malaysia. The basin has been explored the last 110 years since the first exploration well Menombok-1 was drilled in 1897. The sequence stratigraphic study for NW Sabah Basin was conducted since first March 2007 in conjunction with basin evaluation study for this area. The main objective is to identify new hydrocarbon plays and leads other than the conventional play type in the study area with seismic sequence stratigraphic application.
