Arrow Exploration (AXL LN/CN)C; Target price of £0.70 per share: Gearing-up for acquisitions? – 1Q25 production was 4,085 boe/d with no horizontal wells drilled in the period. RCE is more mature than CN and while no drilling has taken place at RCE, the decline rate between 4Q24 and 1Q25 was only ~5%. 1Q25 Production was constrained by increased water production preventing the company increasing the speed of the pumps at some of its producing wells. The increased amount of produced water increase...
• The analysis of the well test result at well 36-2R suggests recoverable resources of 0.84-1.24 mmboe for the 4,000 feet lateral. The reservoir characteristics are consistent across the length of the lateral with consistent contribution from the reservoir matrix to the flow rate. Extrapolating these results across a longer lateral of 10,000 to 15,000 feet suggests recoverable volumes per well of 9 bcf to 37.5 bcf with a condensate yield of 20-60 bbl/mmcf. The base case is 15-17 bcf (plus conden...

• The 1Q25 production and cash position at the end of March were in line with previous indications. However the adjusted working capital was ~US$15 mm higher than cash given an oil inventory increase of 0.89 mmbbl. • Valeura has taken FID at Wassana (G10/48 licence), resulting in the conversion of 8.6 mmbbl 2C contingent resources into 2P reserves. Wassana’s 2P reserves now stand at 20.5 mmbbl, with the field expected to produce 10 mbbl/d in 2H27, representing almost 45% of FY24 production. • T...
• Zephyr has secured a US$100 mm drilling funding agreement with a US private equity firm to enable growth in its non-operated asset portfolio in the Williston Basin. The structure appears to be similar to a “DrillCo”, in which the investor will fund up to 100% of Zephyr’s drillex on a case by case basis. The agreement covers drilling on future well acquisitions but also could apply to new wells proposed on the Zephyr’s existing acreage. • The funding should enable Zephyr to scale production in ...

Re-iterating FY25 guidance – 1Q25 production was ~12 mbbl/d, including 6,841 bbl/d in Gabon, 3,661 bbl/d in Equatorial Guinea and 1,492 bbl/d in Tunisia. Production in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea was previously reported by BW Energy and Kosmos Energy. Equatorial Guinea output was temporarily impacted by unplanned downtime at the Ceiba Cluster, but operations ...
• The State 36-2 well achieved peak rates of 2,848 boe/d, including 856 bbl/d of oil, on a small 18/64 choke. During a separate, 48-hour phase of testing on an 8/64 choke, production ranged between 700-1,066 boe/d, with 200-400 bbl/d of oil. Importantly, there was no material drop in bottomhole pressure in either test, confirming that sustained production at these levels is feasible long-term. Zephyr highlighted that well deliverability is more than sufficient for commercial operations. • In add...
Arrow has released its full year 2024 results, demonstrating the cash generation achievable from its onshore Colombia production, and the ability to generate overall free cash flow while still implementing an extensive drilling programme to support and grow production. We expect more of the same over the rest of 2025, with a total 23 well drilling programme currently underway.
