+++ Description
- Gas from the Maleo field is being produced from a Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU) supported by a new six well wellhead platform which is connected to a 7.4 kilometre spur-line to the East Java Gas Pipeline for distribution to the Surabaya and Gresik gas grid.
- The MOPU is a converted jack-up drilling rig which was modernised and upgraded in Dubai into a standalone, relocatable gas production facility. It is being leased under a multi-year service agreement with Radiant Utama Interinsco (Indonesia) working with Global Process Systems Inc (Dubai).
- Using a modified jack-up rig enabled Santos to achieve first gas only 16 months after final investment approval.
- Gas will be supplied at a plateau rate of up to 110 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) and is expected to operate at plateau production for approximately 5 years.
- The Peluang Gas Field is a tie back to the MOPU
