Field and context
The Alba field is a significant oil accumulation in Block 16/26, discovered in 1984 and developed to exploit heavy oil in unconsolidated sands. Oil is the primary hydrocarbon with significant associated gas. Reservoir drive relies on water injection to maintain pressure and support long-term recovery.
