SapuraOMV Upstream Assets Sdn Bhd (SUA) achieved first gas at Jerun field in Block SK 408, about 160 km off the coast of Sarawak, Malaysia.
Jerun field was discovered in 2015 by SUA following the drilling of nine exploration wells from 2014 to 2015. Comprising an integrated central processing platform, Jerun will export gas through a new 80-km pipeline into the E11RB production hub for onward delivery to Bintulu-based customers including Malaysia LNG. The Jerun platform is designed to produce up to 550 MMscfd gas and 15,000 b/d condensate during peak production.
SUA is operator of Jerun (40%) with partners Sarawak Shell Berhad (30%) and PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (30%).
