("SDX" or the "Company")
STABILISED PLATEAU PRODUCTION OF 50 MILLION SCFE/D ACHIEVED AT
SOUTH DISOUQ APPROXIMATELY THREE MONTHS AHEAD OF TARGET DATE
SDX Energy Plc (AIM: SDX), the MENA-focused oil and gas company,
is pleased to announce that it has achieved its targeted stabilised
plateau production rate of 50 MMscfe/d from its operated South
Disouq concession (SDX: 55% working interest) in Egypt
approximately three months earlier than initially expected.
Gas has been flowing through the South Disouq Central Processing
Facility ("CPF") since 7 November 2019 with all four discovery
wells and the CPF performing as expected.
All gas production is sold to the Egyptian national gas company,
EGAS, at a fixed price of US$2.85/Mcf, with the Government of
Egypt's entitlement share of gross production equating to
approximately 51%.
Mark Reid, CEO of SDX, commented:
"We are very pleased to announce that we have achieved our
stabilised production guidance of 50 MMscfe/d approximately three
months ahead of our original target date. The performance to date
of the CPF and the four wells has exceeded our expectations and,
with the commencement of our South Disouq drilling campaign in Q1
2020, we are looking forward to an exciting period of activity in
this concession."
About SDX
SDX is an international oil and gas exploration, production and
development company, headquartered in London, United Kingdom, with
a principal focus on MENA. In Egypt, SDX has a working interest in
three producing assets. In the South Disouq gas field in the Nile
Delta, the Company is operator and has a 55% working interest. In
the Eastern Desert, adjacent to the Gulf of Suez, the Company has
two non-operated oil interests; 50% in North West Gemsa and 50% in
Meseda. In Morocco, SDX has a 75% working interest in the Sebou
concession, situated in the Gharb Basin. These producing gas assets
in Morocco are characterised by exceptionally low operating costs
and fixed price gas contracts making them particularly resilient in
a low oil price environment. SDX's portfolio also includes high
impact exploration opportunities in both Egypt and Morocco.
