A production test on the Muruk 1ST3 exploration well in Papua New Guinea has been declared a success, with the well flowing 16 MMcf/day of gas, operator Oil Search said this week.
The well test confirmed a “very good quality reservoir”, despite gas flows being constrained by “tubing limitations and downhole issues”, Oil Search said, adding the test was undertaken to assess the reservoir productivity and recover hydrocarbon samples.
