Indonesia Kutei exploration basin
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
The Kutei Basin represents Indonesia's largest Cenozoic basin. It spans onshore Kalimantan and ultra-deepwater areas in the Makassar Strait. Most future exploration will target offshore opportunities, focusing on the Shelf and Deepwater basin fan plays. The basin has delivered the highest resource volumes among Indonesian basins. However, value creation has underperformed expectations. Challenging production sharing contract terms, extended project timelines and small discoveries have constrained returns. Recent developments signal improved prospects for the basin. Wood Mackenzie expects these factors to accelerate development and enhance performance in the coming years.
