Comments
After closing the Santa Cruz transaction last week of May (see
NewsWeb announcement here), Interoil is happy to reassume the
monthly Production Report following a suspension period of four
months. A period where Interoil profited to reorganize the
Argentine business either operationally among Santa Cruz and Mata
Magallanes Oeste and, more importantly, on the marketing side. In
this respect, Interoil was able to sign a series of offtake
contracts either for the oil and the gas, specially the Plan Gas
5.2 (see Interoil's Half-Year 2023 report here) improving
significantly Interoil overall net revenues in Argentina.
On the production flows Interoil’s average daily operated
production increased by 160 boepd when comparing May (last
Production Report published) against September figures, where most
of the additional production comes from the Argentinean operations
opposingly to a reduction in the Colombian figures.
In Argentina, the operated production increased by 207 boepd
when comparing September against May. Most of this increment comes
from the reactivation of shut-in wells after reassuming field
activity with the pulling rig last month plus the reconfiguration
of the compressor operational parameters. In this regard, Interoil
is pleased to have the pulling rig finally in operation since it
triggers a series of downhole interventions programmed for the
Santa Cruz assets. Another vital milestone for Interoil in
Argentina comes from the 12 boepd incremental production in MMO
thanks to the reopening of two shut-in wells. It should be
mentioned, the Santa Cruz pulling rig is expected to be mobilized
on site as some gas well interventions are needed to increase
fuelled gas from shut in wells to stream around 150 boepd from
existing wells in the coming months.
In Colombia, Puli C production experienced a reduction of 27
boepd due to downhole problems in some production strings. Interoil
is working in bringing a pulling rig to intervene eight shut-in
wells aimed at recovering around 100 boepd of production in the
coming weeks. In the Llanos area, Vikingo production flows
decreased by 20 bopd following its natural depletion rate. The
exploration campaign in Altair and LLA-47 blocks remains on hold
pending approval from local authorities. Conversations with the ANH
concerning the formal approval is still on hold waiting for the new
authorities to take position.
