据离岸工程5月8日报道称，钻井平台所有者日本钻井公司（JDC） 表示，Premier石油公司已经开始在印度尼西亚近海的Natuna使用自升式钻井平台HAKURYU-11进行钻井作业。
JDC于去年11月获得Premier石油公司 Natuna 海的钻探合同。该合同涵盖了Natuna近海的四口油井，历时 173天。
一旦该钻井平台在印尼完工后，将迁至越南近海的Vung Tau。该公司与越南石油钻井与服务公司签订了一份合同，将在 300天左右的时间里钻探五口井，另外还有一口井供选择。
Premier 石油公司于1996年收购了其在印尼的首个运营区块Natuna海 A区块。Natuna 海A区块由四个独立的油田组成，这些油田通过平台和与Anoa设施、Gajah Baru井口平台和中央处理平台的海底回接开发。
根据几项天然气销售协议（GSA），Premier目前通过Natuna 海A区块的油田向新加坡和国内市场供应天然气。Premier希望通过在Natuna 海A区块开发已发现但尚未开发的资源来回填这些长期合同。
