Key highlights
- Completed the construction and commissioning of the Kerendan gas processing facilities
- Moved to commercial status from January 2016 (when we went onto Take or Pay)
Outlook
- Ramp up to full daily production of 20 MMscfd
- Complete the West Kerendan-1 Put on Production plan to monetise an additional 36 Bcf of gas and add c.7 MMscf to the production profile from 2019
- Major onshore 3D seismic programme ongoing to further characterise the field for full development
457Bcf
Discovered gas
122 Bcf of gas has been commercialised and there is a further 457 Bcf of discovered gas to be commercialised.
The first phase of the project has commercialised 122 Bcf through a Gas Sales Agreement with PLN (Indonesian National Power Company). This project provides 20 MMscfd produced into a 155 MW power plant 3km from the field. There is an additional 457 Bcf of gas that Ophir intends to commercialise in the next five years.
The North East and West Bangkanai PSCs, as well as the Bangkanai PSC (within which the Kerendan field is located), contain analogue structures. Ophir will complete 3D and 2D seismic surveys over West Bangkanai in 2017 to justify possible future exploration drilling.
