Europa Oil & Gas is an active oil and gas explorer throughout the European region. It holds core producing oil assets in the UK, along with a wide range of exploration and appraisal projects in various stages of development in the UK, Romania, France and Western Sahara.
The Company currently produces oil from three UK onshore oilfields, with ongoing appraisal work in Romania. The Company also holds a key gas appraisal asset in southwest France. Exploration for both conventional and unconventional hydrocarbons is an integral part of the portfolio and the Company continues to pursue this upside potential in all areas.
Europa Oil & Gas boosted by higher output and prices
UK-onshore oil group Europa Oil & Gas (LON:EOG) saw first half revenues jump by almost two-thirds as output and prices both rose.
Turnover jumped by 61 per cent to £2.1 million in the half year to January 31 as volumes from its three producing fields rose by 23 per cent to 187 barrels per day.
Income was also boosted by a 39% rise in oil prices to US$108.9 per barrel.
The company currently has three producing assets all located in the East Midlandsand consisting of a 100% working interest in the West Firsby and Crosby Warren fields and a 65% working interest in the Whisby 4 well.
Higher output reflected the West Firsby WF-9 well coming on stream and reduced downtime after the blizzards had affected the the previous year.
Hugh Mackay, chief executive, added that daily production has been consistently higher than the previous year despite a recent workover programme for the West Firsby 7 well.
“Our UK production continues to generate more than enough cashflow to cover our operating costs and provides a solid foundation from which we can develop our other highly exciting assets.”
“Little or no value is being attached to our highly prospective portfolio of exploration and development assets that include the Berenx gas appraisal project and the Tarbes Val d'Adour re-development project, both of which are located in France.”
Management is committed to realising the inherent value of Europa’s portfolio, he added.
