Bentara 2 come in at 100 meters of net pay and was higher than expectations

a snipet of news from back then
The Bentara-2 well is located in the Bentara field, offshore Sarawak, East Malaysia. After finalising the logging program, the well was completed and perforated over a six metre interval between 2,665 metres to 2,671 metres MDBRT and accesses an estimated reservoir net pay section of 9.4 metres. The zone was tested for a 23 hour period to prove up the reservoir production potential. The test successfully achieved a stable oil rate in the range of 1,685 to 2,275 stb/d with a choke size of 40/64 inch and a measured oil gravity of 30 degrees API.

The Bentara-2 well has now been shut-in and will await the arrival of the Early Production Vessel (EPV) to conduct extended production testing of the remaining reservoirs. Up to 14 reservoir sections have been identified in this well from the logging data, with a total estimated hydrocarbon pay potential in excess of 100 metres. Rig operations on the Bentara-2 well have now concluded, and the drilling rig is now preparing to move to the Balai field which is located approximately 25 kilometres east of Bentara for the drilling of the Balai-2 well.

This field is likely to be very big and may underpin the entrire Balai development thus a succesful Bentara 3 will in my view lock in FID on Balai and Roc will begin to get some of the Balai vlaue built into SP - at present zero is built in
