Anglo-Dutch supermajor Shell is expected to spud imminently a wildcat targeting the Gemilang prospect off Sabah, East Malaysia.
The Seadrill drillship West Capella left Singapore in October and was expected to arrive at the Gemilang-1 well location off the north-west coast of the island of Borneo around the start of this month.
The drillship will remain on location for around one month.
