North Baram & North East Luconia Play Analysis

Abstract

The North Baram & North East Luconia play analysis project objective is to further evaluate the remaining potentials in the open block which is straddling the West Baram and North Luconia Provinces. The study area covers a total of 25000sqkm extending from NW to SE of the Sarawak Basin which fall across two of the most prolific geological provinces in Malaysia, the Baram and Luconia provinces. This area underlain by three different geological provinces, the eastern part of the North and Central Luconia provinces and the extension of West Baram Delta province. There are three major play types were recognized and actively explored in the area namely; Pre-MMU (Cycle I & II) play at the North East Luconia, Post-MMU play (Upper Cycle V-VI) at North Baram Delta and Carbonate play at the Central Luconia province. However there are still remaining potential of Lower Cycle V play in N Baram Delta, Pre-carbonate play in Central Luconia & Post-MMU play in NE Luconia that have yet to be tested and evaluated.
