Comment[edit]

222.153.146.233 13:58, 3 January 2007 (UTC)Seria is the town where many children were born to parents working for the BSP Oil Company (Brunei Shell Petroleum) . Seria was effectively an oilfield camp - albeit a comfortable town , with recreation clubs - Panaga for the expatriates and Senior staff of BSP , SRC (Shell Recreation Club) for the regional staff and I believe there was another club for the labour force. Most of the chilren of the BSP company went to the local schools until Form 5 and then went overseas for higher schooling and university or technical colleges The expatriate children usually went to their home country for secondary school but did their primary schooling at Panaga school, - the Principal for many years was Geoffrey Daniels 222.153.146.233 13:58, 3 January 2007 (UTC)Jonathan Clark, son of Roy and Coral Clark222.153.146.233 13:58, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Statements in inaccurate section or article[edit]

The following statements in the History section seem to be placed in inaccurate section or irrelevant to the section or even subject of this article:

  • A total of 36 oil wells were completed in 1935, while number of oil wells was increased to 53 in 1936. should be for Seria oil field article, not this article.
  • In 1938, the first Seria Mosque was completed. should be in Facilities section.
  • In 1953, a record breaking 36,496,599 barrels were produced, followed by a major blowout in well Seria 328 during a drilling operation. should be for Seria oil field article.
  • In 1954, the BMPC in Seria has a total of 1,277 European and Asian staff, should be in the Brunei subsection of Shell plc article.
  • later that year, the Seria Mosque was rebuilt at a cost of B$250,000. should be in the Facilities section.
  • The extensions of Seria oil field namely South West Ampa Field and Tali Field respectively began production in 1964 and 1978. should be in the Seria oil field article.
  • From April 25 to May 8, 1989, thick smoke from the Rasau-17 blowout in Rasau had covered parts of Seria and Kuala Belait. should be in Rasau article.
  • The 8 acres (32,000 m2) An-Naem Islamic cemetery was opened in Anduki, in 1993. should be in Facilities section.
  • In 2010, the B$20 million Tenaga Suria Brunei (TSB) solar farm began operation in Seria. should be in Facilities section.
  • On September 25, 2015, a major fire broke out at a department store in town with no injuries recorded. seems irrelevant per WP:NOTNEWS and ought to be omitted.

The article Seria Coast should be merged to this article under the Geography section as the former article seem to not satisfy WP:GNG; the said article has been a stub since 2020. Azuru79 (talk) 13:50, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seems reasonable. CMD (talk) 07:16, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
