Gas issues could spur exploration offshore Malaysia

Dateline 2019-06-24, Offshore:

Malaysia’s need for additional gas supplies could trigger a new round of upstream investment in Southeast Asia, according to Wood Mackenzie.

There have been multiple breakdowns in the Sabah-Sarawak gas pipeline and Petronas’ large Kasawari gas project offshore Sarawak has still to receive the go-ahead.

This has resulted in a short-term supply problem for Malaysia’s Bintulu MLNG plant, and the shortage could continue until at least 2025, when new fields are due to come onstream such as Kasawari, Jerun, Timi, Rosmari, and Marjoram.

Dateline 2014-08-26, The Rakyat Post:

Oil major Shell today said it had found more gas at a block offshore Malaysia where it drilled a successful well earlier this year.

The energy firm made the gas discovery in 800m-deep water at its Marjoram-1 well, 180km off the Malaysian coast in Block SK318.

Shell announced in April its first successful gas find in this new drilling area.

“Our strategy to expand our heartland areas through technologically advanced exploration is delivering tangible success in deep-water in Malaysia,” said Andrew Brown, Shell’s director of international upstream.
