Borneo is fringed by six large Neogene deltaic basins, all but one producing substantial hydrocarbons. The Sandakan basin off Northeast Borneo is the exception, but the latest exploration results suggest that it will not remain so. The paper describes its complex history; its exploration history; exploration results; stratigraphy; and geologic structures and traps. The Sandakan basin is conservatively estimated to contain 1 billion bbl of oil and 3tcf of gas.
