This is consistent with 1Q25 production of 27.6 mboe/d, which benefited from one month of output from Triton. • Repairs at Triton have been completed, and production remains on track to restart in June. The FY25 production guidance of 33–37 mboe/d, with US$220–250 mm in capex, has been reaffirmed. Assuming 2Q25 production of 25 mboe/d (excluding Triton), this implies 2H25 production of 41–47 mboe/d. • The BE01 well (SQZ: 100% WI) has...

• The envisaged merger between EnQuest and Serica is not proceeding at this time. Given the drop in Brent since the potential transaction leaked on 7 March, this outcome is unsurprising. Given Serica’s prospects as a standalone company, there was no imperative for the company to force a deal. There are multiple catalysts to the share price in the coming months. • Production at Triton is expected to restart in June. With the W7Z well on the Guillemot North West field (Serica: 10%) and the EV02 we...
