Oil & Gas
A key part of Star Energy’s vision is to be the fastest growing energy company in Indonesia. To realize this, the Company will be aggressive in acquiring small to medium sized energy assets in proven producing areas with access to markets and infrastructure.
A portfolio of exploration prospects with a balance of risks will be assembled to ensure
Company’s growth through lower risk activities, while exposing the company to the possibility of discovering large fields through higher risk exploration plays.
Since its inception, Star Energy has been very successful in prosecuting this strategy and is currently producing and exploring for petroleum in a number of areas in the Indonesian archipelago.
In the Natuna Sea, Star Energy took over the operation of Kakap Block producing oil and exporting gas to Singapore.
The Sebatik PSC is located in the Tarakan Basin close to the border with Malaysia in East Kalimantan. In October 2005 Star Energy signed a 30 year production
Sharing contract (PSC) to explore an area that has been more or less underexplored for more than a quarter of a century. The Tarakan Basin is one of the major oil
and gas producing provinces that have been established for almost a century.
Sebatik and Nunukan Islands are situated in the northern part of the Tarakan Basin within the Sebatik PSC. On the south-east coast of Sebatik Island several oil
seeps occur along a well exposed section dominated by several major faults. The obvious inference shows that the faults have controlled oil migration most likely
originating from a working source kitchen. The recent discovery in Badik-1 well to the south of the Sebatik Block has high graded the offshore area of the PSC to be
the most attractive portion for hydrocarbon prospectivity in the PSC. The Sebatik PSC
covers around 1,385 km2 with 354 of the PSC being onshore and 655
offshore where Star Energy acts as operator on the PSC.
Star Energy acquired about 520 line kilometers of 2D onshore seismic in 2006 and
performed several G&G studies. In July 2011 BPMIGAS granted Star Energy, an
extension of the exploration period. In March 2012 Star Energy successfully completed a 2D marine seismic of around 510 line kilometers without LTI. Based on
newly acquired seismic and play mapping derived from field study performed recently, itis clear that Sebatik PSC possesses the potential for hydrocarbon systems and exploration opportunities in the northern Tarakan Basin.
CBM
On 5 September 2012, The Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry awarded Consortium of Star Energy CBM (Sekayu) Ltd and Ephindo Sekayu 2 Incorporation. the #exploration night to develop GMB Sekayu II coal bed methane (CBM) field in South Sumatra with a coverage area of 451 km?
Star Energy’s 269 interest in this new GMB (Gas Metana Batubara) Sekayu II — CBM field would give us an interesting mix of business involvement in energy as part
of our Non-Organic Growth initiative.
Upon signing of the Sekayu II CBM PSC during GASEX 2012 event in Nusa Dua on 9
October 2012, Star Energy has taking the next step to provide diversification to our Portfolio.
The project is scheduled to start its campaign in 2013 with exploratory-coring well,
dewatering and production test to meet the first three years commitment.
