PRESIDENT ENERGY PLC

("President", "the Company" or "President Energy")

PUESTO GUARDIAN CONCESSION, SALTA PROVINCE, ARGENTINA

OPERATIONS UPDATE

 

President Energy (AIM: PPC), the oil and gas exploration company, provides the following update on its Argentina operations.

Highlights

· Successful first workover of previously producing well, DP12, completed on time and budget

· Well back on stream with initial production in excess of 120 bopd in line with expectations

· Workover operations now commenced on the second previously producing well

· Commencement of the programme to work over and frac shut in wells on track to commence end March

 

Further to the Company's announcement on 20 February 2017, President is pleased to announce that the first workover of a previously producing well, DP12 at the Dos Puntitas field, has been completed on time and on budget.

The workover of DP12 went to plan with minimal non-productive time and the well, which had previously had a leak in the production packer and a faulty Jet Pump Bottom Hole Assembly, has been treated with an acid stimulation and is achieving an initial production in excess of 120 bopd, in line with expectations.

The rig has now moved to workover the second of the previously producing wells, DP1001 at the Dos Puntitas field, and operations have now commenced at that site after which the previously announced workover and frac programme of old shut-in wells is still expected to commence end March.

Peter Levine, Chairman, commented:

"A good start for the warm-up to the 2017 workover campaign where we have successfully broken in the Rig provided by our new drilling contractor Quintana, with the new crew and field management team bedding in and working efficiently. Pleasingly, no performance issues were experienced during drilling relating to the rig, crew or any other of President's contractors.

The experience gained so far stands us in good stead when we start to work over and frac the old shut-in wells come end of March onwards, targeting our objective of 1,200 bopd by end September 2017."
