Hibiscus field growth potential

  • Recent results of reprocessed seismic suggest an increase in the Greater Hibiscus oil-in-place volumes by potentially ~3.0x
  • Interpretation indicates Hibiscus South and Mupale as a single structure
  • Verification could give ~155 million barrels recoverable
    • ‒ Assuming 55% recovery factor
    • ‒ 280 million barrels oil-in-place
    • ‒ Current NSAI reserves: 45 million barrels
  • Planned new well to confirm interpretation
  • Potential to increase FPSO production capacity

Hibiscus/Ruche – determining driver for further Dussafu growth

  • Ruche restart planned when COVID-19 restrictions are eased to allow efficient project execution
  • Progressing alternative field development plan to reduce CAPEX and time to first oil
    • ‒ Alternative includes jack-up conversion instead of building a new wellhead platform
    • ‒ Potential to reduce cash break-even to approximately USD 25 per barrel Brent and yield 15% IRR at <USD 30 per bbl Brent
    • ‒ Development plan includes Phases 1 and 2, based on already proven reserves
  • Hibiscus/Ruche development restart currently assumed in Q4 2020 based on revised CAPEX and schedule
