Lundin Petroleum subsidiary Lundin Malaysia has achieved first oil from the Bertam Field offshore Malaysia, according to a news release.
The field began production April 5 from four pre-drilled development wells. The remaining production wells will be drilled sequentially and put onstream through the remainder of 2015, with the field’s gross plateau rate of 15,000 bbl/d of oil expected to be achieved by late 2015, Lundin said in the release.
The field is located on Block PM307, offshore the eastern side of Peninsular Malaysia. Lundin Malaysia is the operator with a 75% working interest and Petronas Carigali is partner with a 25% working interest, the release said.
The Bertam Field has been developed with a wellhead platform adjacent to a spread-moored FPSO vessel in a water depth of 75 m (246 ft).
