Hurricane Energy - Lancaster EPS performing above expectations

In June 2019, Hurricane Energy successfully delivered first oil from the Lancaster early production system (EPS) on time and on budget. Initial production performance has been ahead of management expectations providing support for increasing the EPS production plateau from a current base case of 17kbd to c 30kbd from Q420/Q121. Key to achieving this would be access to gas export, together with success at the ongoing Lincoln Crestal well, 205/26b-14, in the Greater Warwick Area (GWA). In this note, we update our short-term oil price deck (continuing to use last published EIA short-term forecasts) and adjust operational metrics to reflect the latest company guidance. In addition, we increase our risking of GWA to reflect the results of the Warwick Deep exploration well and remove the risked value we had included for Halifax. Overall, these leave our valuation broadly unchanged at 102.8p/share (+0.5%).
