Miri River Ferry Point landing ramp photo, taken in 2007 - before the land reclaimation to become what is now known as Marina Bay. See historical photos of this area here.
In the 1920s, these were the years when the Miri field began to decline. Exploration was carried out further and further afield. In 1926 an exploratory team had gone as far as Padang Barawa between the Sungai Seria and Sungai Barawa. Not much attention was paid to their findings then, but now with the Miri field declining the old maps and charts were taken out and studied again.
