Abstract
Summary
A joint exploration-development campaign was devised and executed in 2022 to unlock significant stranded volumes in a structurally complex field in offshore Brunei. 3 wells in total were drilled. Despite the region being regarded as a mature setting, the near field exploration well resulted in the biggest oil find within BSPs exploration portfolio in the last decade. The two appraisal/development wells contributed towards a 50% increase of the reference case EUR and derisking the previous development low case. Overall the campaign has transformed the project into a top-ranking oil project within BSPs portfolio and highlights the value in continuing to explore and appraise within mature settings.
