Brent average this year has been $68.50
16th January RNS clearly states:
“”Under the Cooperation Agreement and applying the very favourable fiscal terms of the Block XX Production Sharing Contract, after payment of processing costs and transportation, and after the government's royalty and production share are deducted, Petro Matad will receive a net back of more than $40 per barrel based on a sales price of $70 per barrel. Block XX crude will be sold at the same price as Block XIX crude which is Daqing 33 minus $1/barrel. Daqing 33 is usually priced at a small discount to Brent, presently a 3.3% discount””.
Above is in line with MB statement during the AGM, see below.
March AGM @ 46:50 minutes, MB clearly states.
If we assume $70 Brent then after price adjustment processing handling and trucking fees block 20 receives around about $54 per barrel and applying the PSC terms MATAD Nets around about $43 a barrel.
