oa Carbonate Pinnacle Reef Discovery in West Salawati, Challenging Economics Valuation for Prospective Discoveries

The BLLA prospect was explored with the objective of assessing the hydrocarbon potential within the Intra-Kais reefal buildup carbonate facies. The well successfully penetrated the reservoir, reaching a total depth of approximately 11,482 feet. Oil was discovered with a net pay thickness of 284.3 feet.
