Hi DC,
You say a "light load" but 340k barrels over 25 days (maybe somebody could clarify if it is 25 days as I don't have the info to hand) is 13.6k bopd, which is right where it should be at this stage in the EPS programme.
I've asked HUR about whether they will be providing any further insight into EPS production before the January 2020 CMD and got an answer back which needs further clarification (for which I have asked).
However, it looks like there will be no further production info until the CMD, unless there is a problem meeting the outlined targets, and in which case, the company will issue an RNS.
So it's case of no news is good news !
Whilst this is not ideal, I can see why they are doing it, as production will go up and down to a certain degree and if an offload was giving a slightly lower production figure than the one before it would probably create great anxiety on here, even if it was because the AM was having more maintenance work done (for example) during that 4 week period and nothing to do with the actual well performance.
Having said all that, I still think they could issue a production updates now and then (tweets maybe) with clarification of any discrepancies if applicable, but I don't think it's going to happen.
Amaja is the only reliable source on here for EPS production figures.
