TONY< Tornado, RERUN your crazy calculations?
In the first quarter of 2026, we have seen a material increase in realized prices. Our first 4 cargoes of the year have averaged $90 per barrel.
As luck would have it, we are pricing a Jubilee cargo during that week and realized a price of $130 a barrel, which is the highest realized price Tullow has ever achieved on a cargo.
In addition to higher oil prices, West African crudes are now trading at a material premium to Brent, given the lower geopolitical risk associated with loading and delivering barrels from that region compared to the Middle East. It's worth noting our hedges are priced against Dated Brent. Therefore, we have 100% access to this premium. So to provide an idea of the sensitivities and the potential upside, the graph on the right shows our 2026 free cash flow potential between $65 and $150 a barrel.
Incremental cash flow for every $10 price increase above our guided range is around $30 million. This chart also highlights the $130 a barrel level we achieved on the last cargo, which delivered over $116 million of revenue to Tullow.
