BY JOYCELYN LEE

Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas), as part of a group of companies, has won an exploration and production contract in Sudan, according to newswire reports quoting a statement from the company May 3.

Petronas and its partners - Sudapet Ltd, IPC Sudan Ltd and OMV Aktiengessekshaft - were awarded a contract for Block 5B onshore by the Sudanese Government. Petronas will hold a 41 per cent stake in the block while IPC and OMV will each own 24.5 per cent and Sudapet the remaining 10 per cent.

"The contractor will reprocess all existing seismic data, acquire and process 1,000 line-km of new 2-D seismic data as well as drill three wildcat wells. The contractor's minimum financial commitment for the contract is USD33 million (RM125.4 million)," the statement said.

Petronas is involved in four other blocks in Sudan's oil-rich Muglad Basin.
