Mubadala Petroleum has informed that the first three development wells in the Manora Oil Development, in the Northern Gulf of Thailand – MNA-01, MNA-02 and MNA-03 – have now been completed.
Mubadala Petroleum is the operator of the Manora Oil Development joint venture and Tap Oil Limited has 30% interest.
The company expects that production will start from all three wells, resulting in a higher initial rate than forecast with two wells. Completion on MNA-05 has now started. Platform commissioning at Manora is well underway with hook up and commissioning nearing completion. Mubadala Petroleum says the production is now expected to start by mid- November.
