Egret oil field, also known as Egret Field,[1] is a complex oil and gas field in the South China Sea and 45 km north-west of Seria, Belait District, Brunei.[2][3] It is located at the depth of 60 m,[3] and operated by Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP).[4]

History

The oil field was first discovered in 1971,[5] but was deemed non-commercial.[6] Moreover, it was predicted that the oil field would produce an estimated of 30 million barrels for 15–20 years.[7] In order to supply the Brunei LNG plant in Lumut, a US$79 million development of the Egret field was planned by the BSP in November 2001[8] and 2002.[9][10] The Phase 1 project was planned to be completed by August 2003 (at the cost of US$ 22 million),[9][11] while Phase 2 was predicted to be in 2006,[3][12] with the development probably costing US$ 79 million.[9] It was not until 2006, the extraction of oil and gas began.[7] The EGDP-01 platform was put in the field and the gases would then be carried by pipelines to the Brunei LNG plant, via South West Ampa gas field.[10]
