Drilling schedule25 Aug 2018 06:41
Couple of tweaks to my earlier post
Petro Matad (MATD)
Fully funded six well high impact drilling program in Mongolia, total prospective resources targeted 850 MMBO, ranging from near field E&A to basin opener potential:
1) Snow Leopard-1 well (Block V)
- Spudded 9 Jul 2018, 70 days max to complete, "results end Aug, early September".
a) 90 mmbo recoverable from two main target depths (20 mmbo + 70 mmbo) ("Snow Leopard has 2 main target sections with c.90MMbo recoverable potential [mid case])"; plus
b) There could be oil in the shallow turbidite deposits opening up an extra 200+ mmbo play even before they hit the deeper levels. ("If shallow turbidite concept is proven then a large (200+ MMbo) combination trap play opens").
c) Additionally, there are "3 or more additional stacked pay zones identified as potential upside."
There are also 13 or 14 prospects/leads of up to 500 - 600 mmbo recoverable within 35 km of Snow Leopard 1 on their acreage. ("Success de-risks 14 prospects/leads with resource potential of c.500MMbo").

2) Wild Horse-1 (Block IV)
- Spud Sep 2018, "results late Oct, early Nov".
- Targeting 480 MMBO.
- Named by Wood Mackenzie as in top 20 exploration wells worldwide to watch in 2018.
3) Block XX
- Near field Gazelle prospect targeting 13MMbo & rapid commercialization.
- Spud late Sep 2018, complete Oct 2018 (3 weeks).
4) Block XX
-TBC
-rapid commercialization
- Spud late Oct 2018, complete Nov 2018 (3 weeks).
5) New Red Deer prospect, 48MMbo in a basin analogous to nearby producing basins in Mongolia + northern China, within easy reach of existing infrastructure.
- Spud late April 2019, complete May 2019 (3 weeks).
6) Fox-1 (Block V)
- Spud early Q2 2019.
- Mean prospective resource 200 MMBO. High-quality 3D seismic late 2017.
5) Fully funded
- Oversubscribed placing in Jun 2018 provided final tranche of funding for all six wells above and management participated in placing.
- Country already produces 21,000 BOPD (2017) from fields close to Chinese border, including from Blocks XIX + XXI adjacent to Petro Matad’s Block XX. Very attractive fiscal terms).
