Morning all excerpt from Boil's interim results.
Dunrobin (UKCS P2478) - Reabold (Admin.) 36%; Baron 32%; Upland Resources 32%
The publication of the CPR by RPS Group in February 2023 provided independent confirmation of the Company's belief that the western part of the Dunrobin complex had matured into a drillable prospect where a relatively low-cost exploration well can target more than 100 MMbbl of gross Pmean Prospective Resources with modest geological risk.
In July 2023, post period end, the joint venture announced that it had been granted a two-year extension to Phase A of the licence by the UK North Sea Transition Authority ("NSTA"). The additional commitment is to acquire a minimum of 30 square kilometres of 3D seismic data which will complete the 3D coverage over the Dunrobin West prospect.
Plans for execution of this new seismic programme during the first half of next year are underway with contractors, stakeholders and the NSTA. On completion of this work, aimed primarily at further reducing pre-drill risks and volumetric uncertainty, the partners intend to re-engage with potentially interested third parties in respect of the drilling of an exploration well. A 'Drill or Drop' decision on P2478 is now required on or before 14 July 2025.
