  • Descrição: The recent completion of extensive reinterpretation of geological and geophysical data from the Mahakam delta of Indonesia has afforded a clearer understanding of the area's petroleum system. Mahakam is a Tertciary delta on the east coast of Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo Island. The sedimentary cover extends from Upper Eocene to Quaternary with a maximum thickness of about 12,000 meters developed directly beneath the present delta. Large amounts of oil and gas from a number of fields have been found in a Middle to Upper Miocene deltaic sequence. The definition of a number of new plays was possible owing to a renewed geological and geochemical model that led to better comprehension of the overall petroleum system. A historical and forecast production profile of the area indicates that the bulk of an expected increase in gas production in the near future will come from Tunu field. A further production increase from Tunu, together with the development of a significant discovery of Northwest Peciko, will allow new production peaks to be reached onwards from 1994.
