International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) are continuing to monitor and respond to the situation with local and national resources The Palang Merah Indonesia is currently requesting for DREF to supports it operation in South Kalimantan and West Sumatra and Geophysical Agency predicts the peak of La Nina to occur in December 2020 and January 2021 The peak of La Nina coincides with the peak of rainy season which usually occurs between January and February The agency also states that this phenomenon could increase precipitation which triggers heavy rainfall across the country Indonesia frequently suffers flood and landslides several provinces in the country had reported floods and landslides since the beginning of the year flooding several areas in Lhokseumawe and Langsa The flood had caused four sub-districts namely Blang Mangat and Muara Satu to be inundated with floodwater ranging from 60-70 cm hundreds of people from 171 households were temporarily displaced Flooding also inundated hundreds of houses in the affected areas flooding inundated four sub-districts namely Langsa Barat Approximately 9,448 people who reside in the four sub-districts were affected several Langsa areas inundated again on 12 January 2021 The Langsa Offshore Technical Assistance Contract (TAC) is located in the offshore part of the North Sumatra Basin in the Straits of Malacca 90km east-north-east of Mobil / Exxon’s giant Arun gas / condensate field Two commercial oil pools have so far been discovered in the contract area A total of four successful oil wells were drilled into the two fields by Mobil in the 1980s The wells flowed at a combined rate of 18,833 barrels of oil per day (bopd) plus 9.6 million standard cubic feet a day (MMscfd) gas spent about $33 million before relinquishing the area when oil prices collapsed in 1986 Three wells have been brought on-stream during the new developments A range of 2D seismic data was recorded during the 1970s on a grid of approximately 1km in size The control on the velocities required for seismic interpretation was constrained to just two wells Matrix Oil ran 3D seismic data of higher quality on a 25m grid that allowed for a much more accurate picture of the structural framework of the two oilfields a total of five wells were available to the new operator enabling a more accurate calibration of the seismic data The new interpretation suggests that oil accumulation in the L field extends over a greater area than previously indicated Recoverable proven reserves were consequently increased from six million barrels to 13 million barrels while proven and probable reserves of the area were upgraded from 18 to 33.5 million barrels of oil Production commenced at the Langsa oilfields in November 2001 The Langsa field has been developed using the 32,000t MV Alpine as the central point of its floating production This is located between the two commercial fields and secured by eight anchors The tanker holds approximately 230,000 barrels of oil and was taken to Singapore to be converted The first off-take of Langsa oil from the FPSO vessel was 100,000 barrels of oil MODEC and ITOCHU will operate the field under a $47 million three-year lease contract for the FPSO and the subsea flowlines to tie-in the three wells Langsa has announced plans for a fourth well to lift oil from the Langsa L field MODEC awarded Wellstream a contract in June 2001 to supply flowlines and risers Delivery of the flowlines and risers was carried out in August 2001 As the conveyed fluid is sour and flows at high temperatures Wellstream used unplasticised PVDF for constructing the internal fluid Give your business an edge with our leading industry insights View all newsletters from across the GlobalData
