KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 7): Hibiscus Petroleum Bhd’s 50%-owned Anasuria Operating Co Ltd (AOC) is expected to drill and complete its first side-track well on the Guillemot-A field by the first half of 2018.

The execution and completion of the side-track well located off the North Sea in United Kingdom is a planned production enhancement project at the Anasuria Cluster concession off the North Sea, which will unlock 1.01 million barrels of oil from its current net 2P (proven and probable) reserves.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, Hibiscus said AOC was recently awarded a drilling rig contract by North Atlantic Drilling Ltd, a subsidiary of Seadrill Ltd — an international drilling contractor that owns or leases a fleet of more than 50 drilling rigs.

“Under the contract, AOC will procure the services of Seadrill’s West Phoenix drilling rig, a sixth-generation semi-submersible unit, to drill the side-track (known as GUA-P2),” Hibiscus  said.

West Phoenix was chosen via a tender exercise for reasons including certainty of the rig’s delivery schedule, strong past operating performance, crew competence and good health, safety and environment record.

The contract, effective for a minimum duration of 30 days, is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2018.

Hibiscus said the GUA-P2 side-track project is an opportunity to re-enter the existing GUA-P2 well, and drain additional volumes of hydrocarbons by side-tracking the well into existing reservoirs.

AOC plans to complete the project by the end of June 2018, with production from the side-track well to commence upon completion of the project.

Hibiscus managing director Dr Kenneth Pereira said its plans to further extract value from the Anasuria Cluster are progressing on track.

“These projects are mainly funded from internally-generated funds. The GUA-P2 side-track project is part of a series of production enhancement projects shortlisted for execution in 2018 and 2019.

“These are targeted to increase production to 5,000 barrels per day by financial year ending June 30, 2020, while also increasing our 2P reserves,” Pereira said.

Pereira said Hibiscus would see an increase in production and reserves, alongside its other projects.

Hibiscus stock fell two sen or 2.35% to close at 83 sen today for a market capitalisation of RM1.31 billion.
