据离岸工程网站8月26日消息 印尼石油和天然气监管机构已经批准了东爪哇盆地Paus Biru海上气田的开发计划。
该油田位于印度尼西亚马都拉岛外的马都拉海峡由Medco运营的三邦近海区块。除了Paus Biru油田,海上区块还包括Oyong和Wortel油田。
该项目的合作伙伴Cue Energy表示,印尼上游监管机构SKK Migas目前已批准该油田的开发。
2018年12月,Ophir Energy在成功钻探Paus Biru-1探井期间发现了该油田。Medco在2019年收购Ophir Energy后成为运营商。
批准的开发计划包括一个带有无人井口平台(WHP)的单水平开发井,通过海底管道连接至距离约27公里Oyong油田的现有无人井口平台。
来自Paus Biru的天然气将通过现有管道输送至由Sampang PSC合资企业运营的免费陆上生产设施,并在那里进行加工。
合资公司现在将进入前端工程设计(FEED)阶段和天然气销售协议谈判,预计将在2021年年中做出开发项目的最终投资决定,预计2022年末将推出第一批天然气项目。
Cue Energy首席执行官Matthew Boyall说:“Paus Biru开发计划将持续到2021财年,最终投资决定将在第四季度进行,第一批天然气预计将在2022年生产。这项开发不仅将为Cue提供自己的现金流,还将支持和扩展Oyong和Wortel的现有生产。”

Indonesian Regulators Approve Paus Biru Gas Field Plan
Indonesian oil and gas regulators have approved the plan of development of the Paus Biru offshore gas field in the East Java Basin.
The field is located in the Medco-operated Sampang offshore block, in the Madura Strait, off Madura Island, Indonesia. Apart from the Paus Biru field, the offshore block also contains the producing Oyong and Wortel fields.
Cue Energy, a partner in the project has said that SKK Migas, the Indonesian upstream regulator, has now given its approval for the development of the field.
The field was discovered by Ophir Energy in December 2018 during successful drilling of the Paus Biru-1 exploration well. Medco then became the operator after buying Ophir Energy in 2019.
The approved plan of development consists of a single horizontal development well with an unmanned wellhead platform (WHP), connected by a subsea pipeline to the existing WHP at the Oyong field, approximately 27km away.
From the Oyong WHP, gas from Paus Biru will be transported using the existing pipeline to the Grati Onshore Production Facility, which is operated by the Sampang PSC joint venture, where it will be processed.
The joint venture will now proceed into the Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) phase and negotiation of gas sales agreements. A Final Investment Decision (FID) for the development is expected to be taken by the joint venture mid-2021, with first gas expected late 2022.
Cue Energy CEO Matthew Boyall: "Paus Biru development planning will proceed through FY21 with a Final Investment Decision targeted for Q4 and first gas expected in calendar year 2022. This development will not only provide its own cashflow to Cue but also support and extend the existing production from Oyong and Wortel."
