They estimated the cost in the coming year at 5 M . 5M per year for 55 years totals 275M . Some wells do operate for 55 + years . On average the cost per well is amortised over 27.5 years. These numbers are determined by outside engineers so the company cannot fudge the numbers.
An update of this issue is addressed on p.14 of the company's presentation. Clearly, the overall decommissioning costs will be lower.
