Operational Update

Production over the month of August to date is above guidance with a current gross daily average rate of 1,311 boe/d (80% oil).

The first phase of the planned workover program at Cheal is now complete. Namely, the workovers at the Cheal-A11 and B6 wells were recently completed and the wells are now back on production and producing from the Urenui formation.

The second phase of the planned workover program is scheduled to commence in late October 2018. The Cheal-A7 well will be converted to a water injector in the Cheal A pool, which will target the Urenui and Mt. Messenger intervals. As part of this campaign, perforations will be added to the Urenui formation in the Cheal-B7 and B10 wells that are currently producing from the Mt. Messenger formation, and the Cheal-B5 well will be reinstated as a producer with artificial lift to produce from both formations. 

Currently, a rig is being mobilized onto the Cheal-E2 well to install an artificial lift system in order to provide continuous flow from the well, and the rig will then be demobilized after completion. There has been a positive response from the Cheal E waterflood program, with both production and pressure increases having been observed. The Cheal E waterflood program has been expanded to include the conversion of the Cheal-E4 well to a water injector in two Mt. Messenger formation intervals, which is anticipated to sweep oil towards the Cheal-E1 producer well from the southern area of the field.
