("PPP" or "Pennpetro")
Pennpetro Announces Oil Production Update on Chalk Talk 1H Well
Highlights:
· First full week of test production from Chalk Talk #1H well sees
consistent oil production.
· Oil production of 794 barrels for the week or 113 barrels of oil
per day average.
· Workover rig for PPP's Chalk Talk #4H well still on track for
early December.
· Transport and oil sales agreement signed that sees PPP being paid
on the 20(th) day after the end of every month.
London, 14 November 2023 - Pennpetro Energy PLC (LSE: PPP), an independent oil
and gas company focusing on development and production in the Peach Creek
(Austin Chalk) Oil Field in Gonzales County, Texas, USA, advises that the
Company's 100% Chalk Talk #1H ("CT1H") well has completed its first full week
of test production, since the workover rig demobilized from the well site and
the sites were fully commissioned, with a total of 794 barrels of 33 API oil
for an average of 113 barrels of oil per day ("bopd").
Current production levels are significantly above the well's July 2022 shut in
rate of around 15-20 bopd. This increase can be put down to the workover rig
successfully cleaning out a number of bridge plugs (or blockages) below the
bottom of the casing.
Tom Evans, Pennpetro Energy's CEO said:
"Our Chalk Talk 1H well in Texas is continuing to perform very well and shows
excellent flow rates with last week's test production averaging 113 barrels of
oil per day."
"Our US Nobel Petroleum Team have also managed to secure a transport and sales
contract that will see oil sold from our Whistling Straits oil facilities paid
for on the 20(th) day after the end of every month."
"The workover rig is still due to arrive at PPP's 100% owned Chalk Talk #4H
well in early December and we look forward to having two wells feeding into
the Whistling Straits facilities by year end."
