Sapura OMV Upstream has started gas production from the Jerun Field in Block SK 408, 160 km northwest of Bintulu, Sarawak.

The joint venture discovered the field in 2015 following drilling of multiple exploration wells, and it took FID on the project in 2021.

Jerun is producing through an integrated central processing platform, with the gas exported through a new 80-km pipeline to the E11RB production hub, for onward delivery to Bintulu and Malaysia LNG.

The platform is designed to produce up to 550 MMcf/d of gas and 15,000 bbl/d of condensate during peak production. Other partners in the block are Petronas Carigali and Sarawak Shell.
