conduct petroleum exploration within block 09
The block 09-2/09 includes the following: KinhNguTrang (KNT) a
discoveries, Song Ngu (SN) and Lead A prospects.
The KinhNguTrang (KNT) was discovered following the drilling of KNT
wells in 2010, 2011 and 2012 relatively and tested at commercial oil rates. The KinhNguTr

KNT structures located approximately 16km from CLPP and 14km from E1 Platform of Rang
Dong Field of Block 15-2 (JVPC) or 50km east of Bach Ho (Block 09.1) while KTN structure is
located 5km from KNT structure.
With the oil discovery in the KinhNguTrang field, the tentative first oil target of the early
development plan is 4th Quarter, 2016 from KinhNguTrang discovery. The KinhNguTrang South
will then be put into production in 3th Quarter, 2018.
Depending on the results of t
such as Song Ngu and Lead A, these prospects will be considered to put into development
together with KinhNguTrang field.
In general, the offshore facilities concept is determined based on t
flexibility to cater to the future, and to maximize the return on investment by considering using
the existing facilities in the nearby fields. The following concepts have been considered during
the screening selection study do

The Petroleum Sharing Contract of Block 09-2/09 was signed between Vietnam National Oil &
Gas Group (PVN) and Petrovietnam Exploration Production Corporation (PVEP) on the 6th
August 2009 and effective from 21st August 2009 (Effective Date) providing for PVEP to
conduct petroleum exploration within block 09-2/09.
2/09 includes the following: KinhNguTrang (KNT) and KinhNguTrang South (KTN)
discoveries, Song Ngu (SN) and Lead A prospects.
The KinhNguTrang (KNT) was discovered following the drilling of KNT-1X, KNT

South (KTN) was then also discovered by drilling of KTN-1X and KTN-
2014 with a good well testing result.
Other exploration wells will also be drilled during 2014 - 2015 to explore and confirm the oil and

Depending on the results of the exploration of other potential prospects in the block 09
such as Song Ngu and Lead A, these prospects will be considered to put into development
