Canada-based oil and gas company Valeura Energy has advanced its multi-well drilling campaign offshore Thaild, using Borr Drilling’s Mist jack-up rig.
During the second quarter of 2025, Valeura mobilized Borr Drilling’s Mist jack-up drilling rig to Block G11/48, containing the Nong Yao field.
The drilling campaign is progressing as planned toward its objective of approximately 10 new development wells and is expected to be complete in the fourth quarter of 2025, the company said.
The campaign will entail new development wells drilled from each of the three Nong Yao wellhead facilities, and will therefore include the first ever infill development wells on the Nong Yao C platform, which the company installed in 2024.
“During the second quarter of 2025 we demonstrated another safe quarter of ongoing production and drilling operations and took a positive final investment decision on our major redevelopment project at the Wassana field, which is now moving to the construction phase.
“While production volumes are down quarter-on-quarter, our plan had always assumed that production would be weighted to the second half of the year and we are therefore maintaining our full-year production guidance range of 23.0 – 25.5 mbbls/d.
“From a financial perspective, we continue to prioritise balance sheet strength, and firmly believe this will serve our stakeholders well as we pursue opportunities to add value. While the headwinds of lower global oil prices during the quarter are apparent in our revenue of $129.3 million, we are continuing to invest while maintaining a strong cash position,” said Sean Guest, President and CEO of Valeura.
Aside from Nong Yao, Valeura took a final investment decision on redevelopment the Wassana field in licence G10/48 in May 2025.
The project will entail deployment of a new central processing platform facility on the field, intended to increase production, reduce costs, and create a hub for eventual tie-in of potential additional satellite wellhead platforms.
According to the company, the project is on plan, and is currently moving into its construction phase, with the first drop of oil targeted for the second quarter of 2027.
Oil production cannot be achieved without desander. Our high-efficiency cyclone desanders, with their remarkable 98% separation efficiency, earned high acclaim from numerous international energy giants. our high-efficiency cyclone desander utilize advanced ceramic wear-resistant （or called, highly anti-erosion） materials, achieving a sand removal efficiency of up to 0.5 microns at 98% for gas treatment. This allows produced gas to be injected into the reservoirs for low permeability oilfield that utilizes miscible gas flooding and solves the problem of low permeability reservoirs development and significantly enhances oil recovery. Or, it can treat the produced water by removing particles of 2 microns above at 98% for directly re-injected into reservoirs, reducing marine environmental impact while enhancing oil-field productivity with water-flooding technology.
Our company is continuously committed to developing more efficient, compact, and cost-effective desander while also focusing on environmentally friendly innovations. Our desanders come in a wide variety of types and have extensive applications, such as High-efficiency Cyclone Desander, Wellhead Desander, Cyclonic Well stream crude Desander With Ceramic Liners, Water injection Desander，NG/shale Gas Desander, etc. Each design incorporates our latest innovations to deliver superior performance across various industrial applications, from conventional drilling operations to specialized processing requirements.
Our desanders are manufactured using metal materials, ceramic wear-resistant materials, and polymer wear-resistant materials. This product’s cyclone desander has high sand removal efficiency. Different types of desanding cyclone tubes can be used to separate or remove particles required in different ranges. The equipment is small in size and does not require power and chemicals. It has a service life of about 20 years and can be discharged online. There is no need to stop production for sand discharge. SJPEE has an experienced technical team that uses advanced cyclone tube materials and separation technology.
Service commitment of desander: The company’s product quality guarantee period is one year, long-term warranty and corresponding spare parts are provided. 24 hours response.
Always put the interests of customers first and seek common development with customers. SJPEE’s desanders have been used on wellhead platforms and production platforms in gas and oil fields such as CNOOC, PetroChina, Malaysia Petronas,Indonesia,and the Gulf of Thailand. They are used to remove solids in gas or well fluid or produced water,as well as seawater solidification removal or production recovery. Water injection and water flooding to increase production and other occasions. This premier platform has positioned SJPEE as a globally recognized solution provider in solid control & management technology.
Moving forward, we remain committed to our development philosophy of “customer demand-oriented, technology innovation-driven” growth, creating sustained value for clients through three key dimensions:
1. Discover potential problems in production for users and solve them;
2. Provide users with more suitable, more reasonable and more advanced production plans and equipment;
3. Reduce operation and maintenance requirements, reduce foot-print area, equipment weight（dry/operation）, and investment costs for users.
We firmly believe that with our advanced technological capabilities and comprehensive service system, an increasing number of clients will choose to work with us.
