July 31 2025

A technical hiccup due to a pipe falling into a well has affected the pace of ongoing drilling at the Malampaya gas field, according to a highly placed source whose organization is part of the Service Contract (SC) 38 consortium for the project.

The source indicated that “there had been technical hiccup because of a pipe that had fallen into one of the wells being drilled; and that happened after the July 14 flyby inspection of President Marcos at the gas field.”

Manila Bulletin sent queries on this matter to Malampaya operating entity Prime Energy Resources Development, but comments or replies are still being awaited as of press time.
