Production and Operations Update
Saltfleetby
Gas sales from the Saltfleetby Field equalled 4.16 million therms in aggregate
for the months of July, August and September 2025, compared to 3.90 million
therms sold in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of circa 6.7%. Third
quarter 2025 production equates to an average of 1.39 million therms per month
(up circa 6.9% from 1.30 million therms per month in the second quarter of
2025). Gas condensate (liquid) production averaged 69.5 bbl/day, up circa 3.7%
against an average of 67 bbl/day in the second quarter 2025. Saltfleetby
operational efficiency remains at 87% for the Quarter.
Higher production at Saltfleetby this quarter reflects improved well
performance, improvements in well management, and optimisation of Booster
Compressor operation with lower well head pressures.
Well performance under the new operating regime of lower well head pressures
continues to be evaluated by the sub-surface team and the operations team with
the aim of delivering further increases in production.
The annual maintenance shutdown was delivered two days ahead of schedule, with
four days of lost production associated with the shutdown, during the month of
July. The annual shutdown was delivered without incident and with no harm to
the environment, and all regulatory commitments were met.
Brockham
Oil volumes produced from the Brockham Field equalled 3,632 barrels in
aggregate for the months of July, August and September 2025, with an average
of 39.5 bbl/day. This is a decrease of circa 6.6% compared to 3,890 barrels
for the second quarter of 2025 averaging 43 bbl/day. Brockham operational
efficiency remained at 100% for the Quarter.
Finance Update
Estimated revenues during the quarter were £3.21m (Quarter 2: £3.44m), a 7%
reduction on the second quarter due principally to lower gas prices which
averaged £0.79 per therm (Quarter 2: £0.84 per therm).
As previously announced, low priced legacy hedging volumes rolled off in June
2025. Hedged volume for the quarter was 3,220 million therms at an average
price of £0.84 per therm, resulting in a hedging profit of £0.152m for the
quarter.
Further to the announcement of 13 October 2025, Angus Energy confirms that
positive discussions with its creditors regarding restructuring of its debt
remain ongoing. While the Board is encouraged in respect of recent progress in
these discussions, the Company cautions that if a suitable agreement is not
reached, it would create a material uncertainty around the Company's ability
to continue to operate as a going concern. The Company will inform the market
once an agreement has been reached and the terms of such agreement, and in the
meantime continues to carefully manage its working capital position in
conjunction with its lenders.
Potential Acquisition by Reverse Takeover
Further to the announcement of 13 October 2025, the Company is continuing with
its due diligence on the purchase of a group of producing assets located in
the Gulf of America. The Board is meeting in the next week to agree whether or
not to proceed with the transaction as currently structured. The Company will
update the market accordingly in respect of any further developments.
Management Update
Further to the announcement of 11 July 2025, and as requested by Forum Energy
Services Limited ("Forum"), Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorius was appointed as
non-board Interim COO. After completing a review of the Company's
operations, Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorius has resigned to pursue other
interests. On behalf of the Company the Board wishes to thank him for his
guidance and efforts during this time.
