Jura Announces Release of Interim Filings and Operational Update
November 29 2021 - 2:29PM
Jura Energy Corporation (“Jura”) today announced the filing on
SEDAR of its condensed consolidated interim financial statements as
at, and for the three and nine months period ended September 30,
2021 and 2020, and its management’s discussion and analysis for the
third quarter of fiscal year 2021.
Operational Update
During the three months period ended September
30, 2021, the gas production from the Zarghun South lease was
dropped significantly. The decline in gas production is attributed
to a significant drop in wellhead flowing pressures and excessive
formation water production caused by a water breakthrough in the
naturally fractured Dunghan reservoir. Jura holds a 40% working
interest in the Zarghun South lease through its wholly-owned
subsidiary Spud Energy Pty Limited, and the lease is operated by
Mari Petroleum Company Limited. Considering the significance of
these factors, Jura engaged McDaniel and Associates Consultants
Limited (“McDaniel”) to provide an updated reserves estimates of
the Zarghun South lease as of September 30, 2021.
In its updated reserves report as of September
30, 2021, McDaniel estimated Jura’s proved gross reserves at
Zarghun South lease at approximately 9.76 Bcf, and proved plus
probable gross reserves at approximately 16.38 Bcf. McDaniel
estimated pre-tax net present value of the proved and proved plus
probable reserves at approximately US$17.36 million and US$28.87
million respectively, using a discount rate of 10%. This represents
an estimated US$31.60 million (65%) decrease in the estimated value
of proved reserves, and an estimated US$41.19 million (59%)
decrease in the value of proved plus probable reserves, in each
case from the last published estimates as at December 31, 2020
(published in Jura’s AIF dated April 29, 2021).
