Project Profile
Location: Upper Assam Basin, India
Discovery: April 2017
The Moran Petroleum Mining Lease (PML) is located in the Upper Assam Basin, India. Oil India Limited (OIL) made two hydrocarbon discoveries in the Moran Petroleum Mining Lease (PML) in April 2017 in the wells Borbhuibil-1and Lakwagaon-1. The well Borbhuibil-1 encountered multiple sands in Barail and Lakadong+Therria formations. On testing, a 15m Barail sand at a depth of 3322m produced oil at the rate of 28 m3/d. A 10m Lakadong+Therria sand at a depth of 4300m produced oil at the rate of 100m3/d. The feasibility of bringing the discovery on production is under study. In the well Lakwagaon-1, discovery of a gross column of 30m oil sand in Barail formation has been made which produced 42 m3/d of oil on initial testing. The well is currently on production.
