Posted on: Tuesday, 4 November 2008, 12:00 CST
Total has announced a significant gas and condensate discovery in Block B offshore Brunei, in a water depth of 62 meters, around 50 kilometers from the coast.
Total operates the block with a 37.5% interest, in association with Shell Deepwater Borneo (35%) and local partners (27.5%). Drilled to a final depth of 5,227 meters, the ML-4 well discovered a new gas-bearing compartment in the Maharaja Lela/Jamalulalam Field.
A gas column of over 400 meters was encountered in reservoirs equivalent to those already in production in the field. Following the successful MLJ2-06T well, the ML-4 well completes the first phase of an exploration drilling program that will resume in 2009. The gas is delivered to the Brunei LNG liquefaction plant.
