Indonesia’s national oil and gas company Pertamina is hoping to advance development of its Parang oil and gas offshore discovery on the Nunukan production sharing contract in 2019, writes Amanda Battersby.

It plans to drill two or three delineation wells next year on the block after the successful Parang-1 wildcat.

Drillstem testing was carried out on the probe, which was drilled by Apexindo’s jack-up rig Raniworo.
