Project Profile
Location: Thailand, South-East Asia
Water Depth: 60 m / 198 ft
Area: Block B5/27
Production: cumulatively >50 million barrels of oil (2014)
Start-up Year: March 2005
The Ben Yan and Jasmine fields are located on the northwest flank of the Pattani Basin. The field was developed with six fixed platforms. Produced oil is stored onboard the Jasmine Venture MV7 FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading). The FPSO has a storage capacity of 800,000 bbls. Ban Yen produced first oil in 2008.
Through successful execution of the field life strategy, Jasmine has consistently performed above expectations and reserves have been increased substantially from the estimate made at the time of purchase in 2004. In 2011, production output was 17,500 bopd and the facilities recorded over 40 million barrels of cumulative production. In December 2012 the production milestone of 45 million barrels was reached; a substantial increase from the estimate made at the time of purchase in 2004. In 2012, production output was 14,400 bopd and all production is sold for local use to meet Thailand’s growing energy needs.
The Jasmine field had cumulatively recorded more than 50 million barrels of oil production, significantly beyond original expectations. (2014)
