The West Patricia Field in Block SK 309 is located approximately 22 Nautical miles offshore Bintulu off the coats of Sarawak, in a water depth of 40 metres. The West Patricia Field has now entered the full development phase. The initial reservoir appraisal phase saw the installation of the 15,300 BOPD (WP-PA) Wellhead Production Platform, the 40,000 BWPD (WP-IA) Water Injection Platform and the associated evacuation pipelines and the 718,000 BBLS Tanker Storage Facility (WP-FA). A second 15,300 BOPD Wellhead Production Platform WP-PB was installed 3rd quarter of 2004 along with additional pipelines to evacuate the crude to the WP-FA Storage Tanker.
