Field and context
Ichthys is a giant gas-condensate field in the Browse Basin’s Caswell Sub-basin, offshore north-western Australia. The upper reservoir is the Early Cretaceous Brewster Member of the Upper Vulcan Formation, comprising deep-water channel-and-lobe sandstones; the lower reservoir is the Jurassic Plover Formation, dominated by fluvial-deltaic sandstone. Development uses clustered subsea wells feeding the central processing facility through an extensive gathering system.
