Rio de Janeiro, Brazil/Hamilton, Bermuda, 4 December 2023: Seacrest Petroleo
Bermuda Limited (“Seacrest Petroleo” or the “Company”) today provides an update
on production and offtakes.
Production continues to recover rapidly and as of 2 December has already reached
99% of early November levels. The pace at which the Company has restored
production materially exceeds the assumptions underlying the existing
7,400-7,600 bopd FY23 guidance.
The Company completed a full offtake of a crude oil cargo on Wednesday, 29
November. With the offtake of this cargo and another offtake scheduled for this
week, storage capacity and terminal operations have returned to normal.
Michael Stewart, Seacrest Petroleo CEO, said “We are very happy to report that
our production recovery has exceeded our earlier expectations. We have proven
our organizational and technical abilities to overcome challenges while managing
risk and are looking forward to further growing production through our ongoing
infill drilling program.”
