Notes to Editors
Pantheon Resources plc is an AIM listed Oil & Gas company focused on
developing the Ahpun and Kodiak fields located on state land on the Alaska
North Slope ("ANS"), onshore USA, where it has a 100% working interest in c.
193,000 acres. In December 2023, Pantheon was the successful bidder for an
additional 66,240 acres with very significant resource potential, contiguous
to the Ahpun and Kodiak projects. Following the issue of the new leases, which
are expected to be formally awarded in summer 2024 upon payment of the balance
of the application monies, the Company will have a 100% working interest in
c. 259,000 acres. Certified contingent resources attributable to these
projects exceeds 1 billion barrels of marketable liquids, located adjacent
to Alaska's Trans Alaska Pipeline System ("TAPS").
Pantheon's stated objective is to demonstrate sustainable market recognition
of a value of $5-$10/bbl of recoverable resources by end 2028. This will
require targeting Final Investment Decision ("FID") on the Ahpun field by the
end of 2025, building production to 20,000 barrels per day of marketable
liquids into the TAPS main oil line, and applying the resultant cashflows to
support the FID on the Kodiak field by the end of 2028.
A major differentiator to other ANS projects is the close proximity to
existing roads and pipelines which offers a significant competitive advantage
to Pantheon, allowing for materially lower infrastructure costs and the
ability to support the development with a significantly lower pre-cashflow
funding requirement than is typical in Alaska.
The Company's project portfolio has been endorsed by world renowned
experts. Netherland, Sewell & Associates ("NSAI") estimate a 2C
contingent recoverable resource in the Kodiak project that total 962.5
million barrels of marketable liquids and 4,465 billion cubic feet of natural
gas. NSAI is currently working on estimates for the Ahpun Field.
