4 kboepd (2023 production)
Our Chim Sáo fields in Vietnam averaged 4 kboepd in 2023 (2022: 4 kboepd), with additions from new wells online offsetting natural decline. In June 2024, we took the decision to terminate the previously announced sale of our Vietnam business. We have since relaunched the sales process with an aim to complete a sale in early 2025, as we continue to ensure that our capital and resources are deployed in line with our strategy.

The Chim Sáo oil field was discovered in 2006 and first oil was achieved in October 2011. Oil production is exported via a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, and gas is exported by pipeline to Vung Tau near Ho Chi Minh City.
The Dua oil and gas field was subsequently developed as a subsea tie-back to Chim Sáo with first production achieved in July 2014.
