The Kakap PSC is located in the Natuna Sea, 490 km northeast of Singapore and 1250 km north of Jakarta. Since 2003, Star Energy has been the Operator of the contract area which covers 2,000 square kilometers in two separate blocks. The PSC contains oil and gas fields which are operated from four platforms with six subsea tiebacks. The contract for Kakap has been extended by the government until 2028.

Current daily production in 2008 is around 8,000 barrels of oil and condensate and 60 million cubic feet of natural gas.

All the oil and condensate are sent to Kakap Natuna FPSO for processing and storage, and then transferred to tankers for export.

Sales gas is processed at the KF platform before being shipped via the undersea pipeline of the West Natuna Transportation System (WNTS) to Singapore.
