Atlantic Petroleum - Orlando Field Production Update

Atlantic Petroleum - Orlando Field Production Update
Tórshavn, Faroe Islands, 2020-07-16 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- P/F Atlantic Petroleum
(NASDAQ Copenhagen: ATLA DKK & Oslo Stock Exchange: ATLA NOK) announces an
Orlando field production update following the disclosure of production
information from the Licence Operator under the terms of the associated Sale and
Purchase Agreement (SPA) with Decipher Energy.
Orlando Field Production Update
The Licence Operator, Decipher Production, has advised Atlantic Petroleum that
the Orlando field production is currently shut-in due to maintenance and
enhancement work on the Ninian Central Platform.
Prior to the shut in that commenced in April, Orlando production revenue reached
the threshold for payment to Atlantic Petroleum to be received from Decipher
Energy. However, at the time the oil price was lower than the deferred payment
threshold of USD 35 per barrel. Therefore, the shut-in has had little impact on
Atlantic Petroleum in Q2.
Atlantic Petroleum expects to receive its 2% revenue share once production on
Orlando re-commences, as oil prices have recovered to levels above USD 35 per
barrel.
Atlantic Petroleum will provide the market with an update once Orlando revenue
is received.
Orlando Overview
The Company has retained an economic interest in the Orlando Field; sold in
2017 to Decipher Energy. Under the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Company, via
Atlantic Petroleum North Sea Limited, is due to receive a deferred consideration
of 2% of the sale proceeds of the first 5MM barrels of Orlando production, of
which USD 1MM was pre-paid in 2017. After the first 5MM barrels have been
produced on Orlando, Atlantic Petroleum North Sea Limited is due to receive
4.35% of the sale proceeds from Orlando production. Production from the Orlando
field began on the 29th March 2019.
