“Ross lets see you numbers for this decline? Come on back it up.”
Really not difficult. In fact, getting to Q2 production ex CB is about as easy as it gets.
The global Q2 average is 4,399 boe/d.
As Q2 volumes include approximately 1.5 months of CB production at 1,910 boe/d we just have to half that figure to identify the CB contribution to the global Q2 average - 955 boe/d.
Then we just have to subtract that 955 boe/d from the global Q2 average for Q2 production ex CB of 3,444 boe/d compared to 4,317 boe/d in Q1.
A real shocker that is worse than even I predicted and that kills the plateau theory stone dead.
