Don't know them but they have a take on yesterdays news at least..
Block Energy Plc (BLOE.L) Announced, in its operations update, that the company is on track for near-term commencement of phase one of three phase work programme focussed on scaling up production to 900 barrels of oil per day (bopd) within 18-24 months via a fully funded, low-cost low- risk workover and side-track programme of existing wells across licence base.
It has hired a number of highly experienced geologists and geophysicists as work programmes are ramped up on the ground in Georgia.
A full time HSE manager has also been hired to start implementing the company's policies and procedures related to the safety of its operations and the protection of the local environment in Georgia.
Meanwhile, the company is targeting to commence drilling the first high impact horizontal side-track in the West Rustavi permit during Q4 2018 and to be completed and on production by the end of this year.
It is forecasting initial production from this well to be approximately 300bbls/d and has identified four other existing wells in the permit that can be re-entered and side-tracked in a similar manner.
Once drilling has commenced at West Rustavi, the company's working interest will increase from 25% to 50%.
Seems if they're targeting 300BPD from the first Rustavi sidetrack by EOY and then are planning 4 more 900BPD may come quicker than they've estimated?
Know that sounds rampy just stands out that they give low predictions for 12-24 months work so 300BPD from the first of five workovers seems impressive and a little out of kilter.
