and 100% drilling success!!!
Production
Exillon Energy has reached a production of 6,500 bbl/day, where 3,350 bbl/day comes from the Exillon TP fields, and 3,150 bbl/day comes from Exillon WS. With the construction of additional in-field infrastructure, the Group intends to increase production to 9,000 bbl/day in Q4 2010.
Gross production for the six months to 30 June 2010 averaged 3,195 bbl/day. This represents an 84% increase over the comparable period in 2009 when the average daily production rate was 1,732 bbl/day. The Group's revenue for the period comprised revenues from sales of crude oil and amounted to $27.4 million. 96% of the revenue was derived from Exillon TP, which represents just 41.4% of the Group's 2P reserves and 24.9% of the 3P reserves.
Drilling
Exillon WS drilled seven wells during the period, achieving a 100% drilling success rate. The wells were drilled with an average drilling time of 30 days per well, and at an average cost of $1.2 million. Five wells drilled on EWS I fields were tested and achieved an average test flow rate of 668 bbl/day of water-free oil naturally to surface.
