PETRONAS Carigali has made six oil and gas discoveries in five blocks off the coast of Sarawak, Malaysia.
The Gedombak well in Block SK306 and the Mirdanga well in Block SK411, the Sinsing well in Block SK313, the Machinchang and Pangkin wells in Block SK301B, and the Kalung Emas well in Block SK315, stem from new and existing group of oil fields and exhibit low levels of contaminants.
The discoveries were achieved on the back of an intensive domestic exploration drilling campaign commenced in late 2022 that had also led to the discovery that year of Nahara-1 in Block SK306, a significant oil discovery by PETRONAS Carigali within the last decade.
This achievement is also attributed to PETRONAS Carigali’s innovative ‘clustered exploration’ approach, a unique style of prospecting suited for highly matured geological provinces.
With a keen focus on ensuring energy security while supporting the energy transition, the company aims to leverage its expertise and techniques to continue driving growth and innovation.
