GSS Zaoyuan ODP

Green Dragon Gas (GDG) has announced that the China National Development and Reform Commission has approved a project code for the overall development plan (ODP) on the Greka Shizhuang South (GSS) Zaoyuan portion of the main GSS block, concluding that the ODP does not require an approval process and only requires registration. We wait for further details on the debt access or project finance that this ODP registration will afford GDG, such that the company can fund an accelerated drilling programme and re-finance maturing debt. Our base case valuation of 227p/share is predicated on GSS/GCZ RBL debt access and a significant step-up in drilling activity in 2018. See our note of 20 February 2017 for valuation scenarios.
