KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (PCSB) has made a gas discovery with the Hadrah-1 exploration well on block SK411 offshore northwest Sarawak, Malaysia.
Located in the shallow waters of the Balingian Province about 170 km (106 mi) offshore, the Hadrah-1 well was drilled to a total depth of 1,850 m (6,070 ft) in November 2021. It encountered gas within an approximately 200-m (656-ft) thick sequence of high-quality sandstone and carbonate reservoirs.
PCSB is the operator of the block, with 90% participating interest in its production sharing contract. E&P Malaysia Venture Sdn Bhd. holds the remaining 10%.
Hadrah-1 is Petronas’ third gas discovery in this province in 2021, after Sirung-1 and Kulintang-1 in March and May, respectively. In 2019, oil and gas were also discovered within the same play at the D18 field.
