Flow rates29 May 2024 23:26
Here's the interesting thing about anticipated flow rates.
The contractors only received €1.1m prior to the end of the sidetrack and agreed to receive the balance of €1.4m net of VAT post sidetrack from production revenue, to be paid over the next four months.
That tells me both parties are confident in the sidetrack being successful and that the RNS will be based on the ESP, because if you take the four monthly payments due to the contractors (starting June) and add Beacons monthly costs the flow rates will have to exceed 300 BOPD, although I've only done an approximate calculation.
If that level is achieved after the four months Beacon would have a minimum of $400,000 profit per month to spend on additional drilling, thus increasing revenues further.
So although the share price is of concern I am in no doubt this well will deliver big numbers.
