Malaysia Malay 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 Malay Basin is a highly prolific mature oil & gas province that continues to offer compelling exploration opportunities in existing Neogene and Paleogene plays with additional upside in deeper stratigraphic intervals. As energy security and low carbon fuels are prioritised, gas exploration in mature and deeper plays is expected to continue. Beyond exploration, operators are likely to pursue Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) and marginal field commercialisation to slow production decline. The basin's proximity to established export routes keeps value creation attractive for both oil and gas. Despite this, future oil and gas discoveries can leverage existing infrastructure for low cost development and positive value creation.
