據油田技術8月1日消息稱，馬來西亞國家石油公司宣布，位于馬來西亞半島離岸140公里PM304區塊的East Cendor油田于2021年6月23日實現了首次石油生產。

　　該油田由Petrofac(馬來西亞)有限公司(Petrofac)、科威特外國石油勘探公司和馬來西亞國油勘探公司根據PM304區塊生產分成合同開發。Petrofac是該區塊的運營商。

　　East Cendor 是繼 Cendor、West Desaru 和 Irama 之后 PM304 區塊開發系列中的第四個項目。該項目包括開發一個新的井口平臺 (WHP) 和安裝一條新的 6.3 公里管道，將油田連接到現有的 FPSO Cendor。該油田的最高產量預計將超過7000桶/天，這將進一步延長PM304區塊的經濟壽命。

　　馬來西亞石油公司管理高級副總裁 Mohamed Firouz Asnan 表示：“East Cendor首次成功開采石油，證明馬來盆地絕不是一個成熟的油氣省。PM304區塊最初是一個小型油田開發項目，早在2006年就在Cendor油田首次投產。然而，通過對該區塊潛力的持續評估，該區塊的總產油量仍在增長，結果證明，該區塊的潛力很大。”

　　“Cendor原油以其輕、甜的品質而聞名，一度被認為是世界上最貴的原油。隨著East Cendor項目的成功，預計未來將開展更多積極的開發活動，將PM304區塊內的大量剩余資源貨幣化。

　　Offshore Malaysia field brought online

　　PETRonAS has announced that the East Cendor field in Block PM304 located 140 km offshore Peninsular Malaysia achieved its first oil production on 23 June 2021.

　　The field was developed by Petrofac (Malaysia) Limited (Petrofac), Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Co. and PETRonAS Carigali Sdn Bhd, under the Block PM304 Production Sharing Contract. Petrofac is the operator of the block.

　　East Cendor represents the fourth in the series of development in Block PM304, after Cendor, West Desaru and Irama. The project comprises the development of a single new Wellhead Platform (WHP) and installation of a new 6.3 km pipeline linking the field to the existing FPSO Cendor. The field’s production rate is expected to peak at over 7000 bpd which will further extend the economic life of Block PM304.

　　PETRonAS Senior Vice President of Malaysia Petroleum Management, Mohamed Firouz Asnan, said: “East Cendor’s first oil success proves that the Malay Basin is by no means a mature hydrocarbon province. Block PM304 started as a small field development with first production from the Cendor field back in 2006. However, the total oil-in-place volume grew through continuous efforts in appraising the block’s potential, which turned out to be large.

　　“Known for its light and sweet quality, Cendor crude was billed as the most expensive in the world at one time. With the success of East Cendor, more active development activities are expected in the future to monetise the large remaining resources within Block PM304.
