RE: Harbour Energy PLC Timpan exploration well result11 Jul 2022 22:13
Great result, great test but RNS was quite cautious isn't it and what is wrong with this share price? Is everyone listening to a political scientist about oil & gas price?
Anyway, for those who are interested in some of my findings:
- In the submission to Indonesian ministry of environment/forestry, the Indonesian document says that the Timpan-1 DST only expects a rate of 15-50MMscf/D. So at 27MMscf/D + 1884bopd of condensate (CGR of 70bbl/MMscf), this must be close to their Base Case with the added bonus of light condensate?
- High API suggests quite a high proportion of Propane/Butane prices which is exactly what the market needs now as Asian refiners switch from Naphtha to Propane? No mention of high CO2 or H2S either so this is also a bonus!
- Timpan-1 not only proved the strong AVO responses are real but also proved the Bampo carbonate is productive (so I guess the well flowed without stimulation?). This opens up not only the Timpan Cluster (Timpan, Timpan Utara, Halwa Utara/Selatan) but also the Sangar cluster (Sangar Selatan, Sangar Utara, Gayo).
- So 6 Tcf confirmed with 420mmbbl of condensates? At a conservative 70% RF for the gas and 20% for the condensate, this would make it 4.2Tcf and 84MMbbl condensate. Value that at a flat $16/MMBtu and $80/bbl makes it worth 67.2B + 6.7B = 73.9B! Surely that would be commercial even if it costs 50B to rebuild that LNG plant?
- IHS has even done the economics for nearby Rencong prospect when the gas price was only $5/MMBTU and oil price $55/bbl in 2021 assuming low CGR of 15bbl/MMscf! It's now $16/MMBTU and $100/bbl and Timpan is 70bbl/MMscf! This would easily shift the MEFS to around 0.75Tcf or so.

- HBR should just get that Repsol deal done before Rencong-1X is drilled. This company is going to transform into a giant gas company!
