ASX Announcement/Media Release

9 December 2015

MORE THAN 50% INCREASE IN PRODUCTION FOR NEW ACQUISITION

  • November gross production from the Silvertip Field in Wyoming averaged 656 BOEPD - an increase of more than 50% in production since Incremental took control of the Field;

  • Gross production from all fields has increased to 820 BOEPD for the month of November (average weighted NRI of 82.5%) enhancing the value of the assets;

  • 27 additional wells have been returned to production as part of the 2015 workover program.

Incremental Oil and Gas (ASX:IOG) has achieved more than 50 per cent increase in production at its new Silvertip Oil and Gas Field, located in the Big Horn Basin, Wyoming USA.

In October and November 2015, nine additional workovers were completed bringing the total number of shut-in wells brought back into production to 27.

Two behind-pipe recompletions were conducted in October 2015 in non-producing formations. These ‘behind-pipe’ potential zones had been identified in an extensive study undertaken by Incremental since acquisition and the wells and zones chosen were the first potential candidates.

“Both wells were perforated, acid stimulated and placed on production. The results are very positive with the recompletions being economic at current oil and gas prices,” said John Whisler, Incremental Managing Director.

The Company will continue to monitor results over winter and evaluate other candidate wells for more value-adding recompletions in 2016.

“We’re highly leveraged to an increase in oil and gas prices and focussed on executing our positive cash flow acquisition strategy by taking advantage of lower contractor rates to achieve significant success in Wyoming,” said Mr Whisler.

“Our talented team has been able to efficiently execute our turnaround strategy and continues to review new potential acquisition targets. The current climate is creating opportunities and we’re excited about pursuing a well-researched and selective acquisition strategy,” said Mr Whisler.
