Harbour Energy plc partner Mubadala Energy has made a “significant” gas discovery in the Layaran-1 well on the South Andaman licence, offshore North Sumatra.
HALWA-GAYO
Layaran-1 is the first of a four-well exploration campaign targeting the same Oligocene play as the Timpan-1 well drilled on Andaman II, operated by Harbour with a 40% interest, in 2022.
The rig will now move to drill the Harbour-operated Halwa and Gayo wells on Andaman II.
The partners in the South Andaman II licence comprise Mubadala Energy (80%) and Premier Oil South Andaman Ltd, a Harbour Energy company (20%).
