Galoc – Marginal Field Development Plan

Bryce Martin

Abstract

The Galoc oilfield was discovered in 1981 and reinvestigated with an extended welltest in 1989. Several proposals have been considered and finally Galoc is being developed. This paper will discuss the many different threads, that when combined has brought together novel appraisal strategies, production design and high oil prices to start the first new oil development in a generation.
