INITIAL RESULTS from two Malampaya gas drilling programs are expected within the quarter, the Department of Energy (DoE) said in a statement on Tuesday.
-
It said the results are expected from two active drilling sites, the Camago-3 and Bagong Pagasa-1 wells.
A major natural gas discovery was announced this week for Malampaya East-1.
The discovery lies about five kilometers east of the existing Malampaya gas resource off Palawan province.
The new discovery is equivalent to roughly 14 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year, enough to power about 5.7 million households, 9,500 buildings or about 200,000 schools per year.
