Jabiru field
The discovery of oil in the Vulcan Sub-basin at Jabiru, was the first commercial oil discovery in the Bonaparte Basin. Drilled in 1983, Jabiru-1A intersected at 57 metre gross oil column within sands of the Upper Plover Formation and basal Flamingo Group. The Jabiru structure is an eroded, Jurassic fault block, sealed by claystones and marls of both the Flamingo and Bathurst Island Groups.
At date of writing, a further 12 appraisal / development wells had been drilled, several of which were sidetracked. Five of these wells are currently producing.
Located in water depths of around 119 metres, the Jabiru development consists of sub-sea completions connected via flow lines to an FPSO vessel, the Jabiru Venture - a converted oil tanker. Oil is transferred from the FPSO to a shuttle tanker moored in tandem. Commercial oil production from Jabiru commenced in 1986.
Initial oil reserves at Jabiru are estimated at 107.2 million barrels. Cumulative production from Jabiru to the end of 2002 was estimated at 104.5 million barrels. Due to natural depletion, production has declined from its peak of 51,600 barrels/day at the end of 1989 to 5,200 barrels/day (Northern Territory Department of Business, Industry and Resource Development, 2003).
