Betreff: EnCore Oil Press Release - Successful Cladhan Appraisal Well
Datum: Tue, 31. Aug 2010 08:31:49

Press Release

For immediate release: 31 August 2010

EnCore Oil plc (‘EnCore’ or ‘the Company’)

Successful Cladhan Appraisal Well

EnCore Oil plc (LSE: EO.) is pleased to provide an update on the Cladhan appraisal well located in UK Northern North Sea block 210/29a.

The appraisal well was drilled to a total measured depth of 11,215 feet, as a side-track into the Upper Jurassic channel sands, approximately 3,150 feet to the south of the original 2008 Cladhan discovery. The side-track encountered excellent quality oil bearing sandstones, resulting in a gross hydrocarbon column of 159 feet with 102 feet of net hydrocarbon pay. The sandstone has average porosity of 21 per cent. and average oil saturations of 86 per cent. No oil water contact has been observed.

Modular Dynamic Test sampling for both formation pressures and oil samples indicate good correlation of both oil type and reservoir pressure with the 2008 discovery well.  The original discovery well and this side-track have together confirmed a total hydrocarbon column in excess of 273 feet.

Drill stem testing will now be performed after which the next phase of the appraisal programme will be to drill a second side-track down dip of the original discovery well in order to confirm the extent of the reservoir and seek to establish the oil water contact.

Alan Booth, EnCore's Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“This is a superb result from Cladhan and is at the upper end of our expectations regarding the quality and quantity of reservoir sands. This result supports the idea that Cladhan is a significant stratigraphic trap which has still not encountered an oil water contact. We look forward to the results of the testing and the second side-track in order to help us determine the oil water contact and thus the extent of Cladhan. Only once this information is to hand will we be able to determine the relevant development options of Cladhan and provide an informed estimate of the potential size of the field.

“Aside from this exceptional result at Cladhan, we are hopeful of returning to Catcher this autumn, dependent on the signing of a suitable rig contract which is nearing agreement, but not yet confirmed. The group will target between two and four further locations on the Catcher block which, as with Cladhan, will help determine the size of the overall discovery and future development options. This is a really exciting time for EnCore and we look forward to the results over the coming months.”

The equity in the Cladhan joint venture partnership is as follows: EnCore Oil plc (16.6 per cent.), Sterling Resources Ltd (39.9 per cent., Operator), Wintershall (UK North Sea) Limited (33.5 per cent.) and Dyas (10 per cent.).

Peter Williams B.Sc. (Hons.) in Physics and EnCore’s Group Technical Manager, who has over 35 years' engineering experience in the oil exploration and production industry, has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this announcement.

Träumen darf man schon mal ;-)

Hallo Leute,
also im Prinzip gibt es fuer mich bei dieser Aktie nur eine Richtung. Korregiert mich, wenn ich falsch liege. Die kuerzlich gefundenen Felder, selbst wenn sie im schlimmsten Fall am unteren Ende der angenommenen Groesse liegen, sind immer noch riesen gross. Genauer gesagt, viel zu gross, als dass eine kleine Firma wie Encore Oil die Entwicklungskosten bezahlen kann...diese gehen mit Infrastruktur erbauen, Appraisal- und Produktionsbohrungen etc etc in den dreistelligen Mio Bereich....bei so einem Potenzial immer noch peanuts, rechnet man den gegenwert des Oels. D.h. eine wirtschaftliche Rentabilitaet ist in jeden Fall gegeben. Dennoch sind die Kosten fuer Encore zu hoch...d.h. es gibt genau zwei Moeglichkeiten. Encore verkauft seine Anteile an den Felder und wird in Geld schwimmen oder aber die gesamte Firma wird von einer groesseren geschluckt, welche die Entwicklungskosten stemmen kann. In beiden Faellen sehe ich nur eine Richtung fuer den Kurs von Encore und zwar Norden!!!
Gruss  

Was da in nicht mal 1 1/2 Std. an der AIM abging, ist schon bemerkenswert. Kurs in Frankfurt schon 1,20, so kann es weitergehen. Bei 1,40 könnte man sich überlegen, die Hälfte der Position glattzustellen, das wären 100% und man hat die andere Hälfte "für lau". Da kann dann kommen, was will, im schlimmsten Fall geht man mit plus/minus Null raus. Was ich mir aber nicht vorstellen kann.  

da weiss einer wohl schon wieder ein bisschen mehr als die anderen....was?  

Habe gerade mal meine Mailbox gecheckt, doch News von EnCore sind nicht dabei gewesen. Wenn es welche gibt, bekomme ich sofort Nachricht.

aber wieso auf einmal solche umsaetze? da muss doch was passiert sein.
naja, mal abwarten...wo hast du deinen SL gesetzt, wenn ich fragen darf?  

Schon 10 Mio Stücke allein an der AIM gehandelt. SL habe ich nicht gesetzt, bei größeren Rücksetzern stocke ich nochmal auf. Sonst siehe #159.

was denkst du ueber meine oben genannte these?  

NORTH SEA PARTNERS SEEK TO ESTABLISH EXTENT OF DISCOVERY

BY DAVID TELFER

EnCore Oil has announced the result of successful testing operations on the Cladhan appraisal well in the UK northern North Sea.

stable rate of about 5,900 barrels of oil per day (bpd), with the flow rate restricted by the capacity of the equipment.

EnCore said operator Sterling Resources had indicated that, with larger completion tubing it estimated that the well was capable of producing more than 15,000bpd. Alan Booth, EnCore's chief executive, said: "The quality and deliverability of the Cladhan reservoir has been further confirmed by this excellent test result. We believe it is very likely that a commercial accumulation at Cladhan has already been established.

"We look forward to the results of a sidetrack well which we hope will enable us to define the location of the oil-water contract."

Sterling chief executive Mike Azancot told the Press and Journal: "Now the challenge is to figure what the development's going to be and plan for further appraisal."

The second sidetrack of the appraisal well is so important as its purpose is to seek out oil-water contact. The deeper the rig drills without encountering water, the larger the field's reserves will be.

While he indicated that the second sidetrack is going ahead, Mr Azancot said a further appraisal well planned in the second quarter of 2011 might be drilled during the first quarter instead, contingent on weather, rig rates and the views of other partners in Cladhan.

An optimistic Mr Azancot said the Cladhan programme had without doubt delivered excellent results.

Mr Booth added that, at the Catcher area in the central North Sea, EnCore was finalising well locations with its partners following the acquisition of site surveys which were now almost complete.

He said: "We hope to return to drilling at Catcher in late September or early October for a programme of between two and four wells.

"A turnkey contract for use of the Galaxy II rig is being negotiated and it should be ready for signature once the necessary approvals have been received. Until the contract is signed, exact timing of the drilling programme cannot be guaranteed." The equity in the Cladhan joint-venture partnership is Sterling (39.9%), EnCore (16.6%), Wintershall UK (33.5%) and Dyas (10%).

Partners in Catcher are En-Core (15% and operator), Premier Oil (35%), Wintershall UK (20%), Nautical Petroleum (15%) and Agora Oil and Gas (15%).  

Also bei einer Flowrate von 15.000 Bpd und einer Beteiligung von 15% sind das genau 2250 B jeden Tag....zieht man da die Entwicklungs- und Produktionskosten noch ab bzw. geht von 12$ pro B an Produktionskosten aus...bleiben bei dem heutigen Oelpreis noch ne ganze Menge an Dollars uebrig fuer das kleine Unternehmen. Und geht man von einem aehnlichen Ergebnis bei Cather aus, sind die gerade mal 330 Mio an Marktkaptilaisierung peanuts...fuer mich weiterhin ein klarer Kauf. Oder sieht das jemand anders. ALlein die Reserven uebersteigen den Wert der Firma bereits...

Successful Test Result at Cladhan and Catcher Update

EnCore Oil plc (LSE: EO.) is pleased to announce the result of testing operations on the Cladhan appraisal well, located in UK Northern North Sea Block 210/29a.

The well, 210/29a-4Z flowed at a stable rate of circa 5,903 bopd (barrels of oil per day) for over 13 hours through a 28/64 inch choke with a final wellhead pressure of 1,874 psi (pounds per square inch). The flow rate was restricted by the capacity of surface facilities and due to the small diameter of the testing tools and the 3.5 inch tubing used while testing. The Operator, Sterling Resources, has indicated that with larger 4.5 inch completion tubing, they estimate that the well is capable of producing over 15,000 bopd. The testing confirmed light oil with a gravity of approximately 34 degrees API and a gas oil ratio (GOR) of 245 scf/bbl.

After completing the well test operations, the well will be plugged back and a further side-track downdip and to the southeast of the original discovery well will be drilled to better understand the location of the oil water contact (OWC) in the field. The side-track operation will commence later this week and is expected to take approximately two weeks subject to weather and operational delays.

Alan Booth, EnCore's Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“The quality and deliverability of the Cladhan reservoir has been further confirmed by this excellent test result. Until we can establish the depth of the OWC, it will be difficult to accurately define the size of the Cladhan accumulation although we believe that it is very likely that a commercial accumulation at Cladhan has already been established. We look forward to the results of the side-track well which we hope will enable us to define the location of the OWC.

“Aside from the operations at Cladhan, at Catcher in UKCS Central North Sea Block 28/9, we are finalising the well locations with our partners following the acquisition of site surveys which are now almost complete. The necessary technical, drilling and safety evaluations for the use of the Transocean Galaxy II heavy duty jack-up rig are continuing and, subject to the necessary regulatory approvals of these, we hope to return to drilling at Catcher in late September / early October for a programme of between two and four wells. The turnkey contract with ADTI for use of the Galaxy II rig is being negotiated and it should be ready for signature once the necessary approvals have been received. Until such time as the contract is signed, exact timing of the drilling programme cannot be guaranteed.”  

dass dem Wert so wenig Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wird, da er fuer mich ein riesen Potenzial hat. Gibt es hier keine weiteren Investierten?

Ich denke, dass bis zur Verkuendung, ob Uebernahme, Verkauf der Lizenzen oder eigenes Development nicht viel passieren wird. Das heisst also erst mal abwarten und auf die Entscheidung bzw. die Entwicklung in Zukunft mit Freude warten.
Wie oben erwaehnt: der Wert der Firma ist deutlich unterbewertet, allein schon durch die Reserven in den zwei Feldern. Dazu kommen noch weitere Lizenzen bzw. Anteile, welche Encore besitzt und ebenfalls vielversprechend sind.  

...gibt es momentan zwar keine so wirklich, jedoch wird hinter den Kulissen bereits verhandelt, wie es mit Encore weitergeht. Eine Uebernahme ist fuer mich weiterhin die wahrscheinlichste Loesung. Fuer eine grosse Firma, wie BP oder Shell ist Encore zu klein, fuer kleine Firmen zu teuer, so dass ein mittlegrosser Kandidat aus dem Konsortium der beiden Felder der perfekte Eigner waere und fuer beide Parteien mehr als lukrativ.
Bislang sieht die Kursentwicklung hervorragend aus...

FOUR EXPLORATION WELLS TO BE DRILLED ON DISCOVERY

ENCORE Oil said yesterday it had agreed a contract for the Transocean Galaxy II jack-up rig to drill up to four exploration and appraisal wells on the Catcher discovery in block 28/9 in the UK central North Sea.

Catcher, thought to contain up to 300million barrels of oil, was found in June and is said to be one of the biggest UK discoveries in recent years.

The Transocean Galaxy II is expected to return to the Catcher area later this week and its first target will be the Varadero exploration prospect to the w st of the Catcher discovery.

EnCore chief executive Alan Booth said: "We are delighted that the rig contract has been signed. We remain excited about the upside potential of the Catcher area which we hope will be better understood in the coming weeks and months."

The equity in the block 28/9 partnership is EnCore Oil (15% and operator), Premier Oil (35%), Wintershall (20%), Nautical Petroleum (15%) and Agora Oil & Gas (15%).

Meanwhile, Subsea 7, the subsea engineering and construction company, said yesterday it had been awarded a four-year framework agreement with Shell Upstream International Europe for subsea pipeline installation across its European offshore fields and facilities.

The contract has a further three one-year extension options and with other recent contract awards will see Subsea 7 recruiting for in excess of 200 positions between its Aberdeen and Wick sites.

The Shell contract will cover the provision of subsea pipeline installation services on a call-off basis.

This includes project management, engineering and procurement services through to reeled pipeline installation offshore using Subsea 7's pipelay vessel the Seven Navica.

Subsea 7 said the new contract was in addition to a long-term underwater services contract that the company has with Shell.

The contract is due to start immediately.

Auch Premier Oil fast wieder am ATH und auf dem Weg in die Gewinnzone.
Ganz schön viele Instis dabei. Sollte es auf eine Übernahme von EnCore hinauslaufen, könnte ich mir Premier Oil dafür vorstellen.

Second Successful Cladhan Appraisal and Update on Catcher Operations

EnCore Oil plc (LSE: EO.) is pleased to announce initial results of the second side-track on UK Northern North Sea Block 210/29a which contains the Cladhan discovery.

 

 

Well  210/29a-4Y, the second side-track to be drilled on the Cladhan  discovery, was drilled to a total measured depth of 11,530 feet,  approximately 1km to the southeast of the original 2008 discovery well.  Initial results from logging while drilling data indicate the side-track  encountered a 258 feet gross hydrocarbon bearing reservoir interval  (169 feet vertical thickness) with 108 feet net pay (71 feet vertical  thickness). The well has established oil down to 9,643 feet subsea. No  oil water contact has been penetrated.

 

(.....)

Alan Booth, EnCore's Chief Executive Officer, commented

“This is another  excellent result from Cladhan. It is still too early to put a precise  figure on how large the discovery might be, but we are now very  confident that we have a potentially significant commercial  accumulation. We hope to return to the Cladhan area at the earliest  opportunity to establish both the southern extent of Cladhan and drill  further down dip in search of the contact.
