Erfelden Operational
Update
Beacon Energy (AIM:BCE), the
full-cycle oil and gas company with a portfolio of onshore German
assets through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rhein Petroleum GmbH
("Rhein Petroleum"), announces that mobilisation
of the drilling rig for the SCHB2 side track, which had originally
been scheduled for mid-April, has been delayed by approximately two
weeks.
The rig is currently contracted to a
third-party operator for well operations located approximately 50km
from the Erfelden site.
The Company has received
notification from the rig contractor that due to extended ongoing
operations encountered by the current operator, release of the rig
is now expected at the end of April 2024.
The Company will provide a further
update once mobilisation of the rig has commenced. Side track
operations are expected to commence around seven days after
mobilisation. The side track operation itself is expected to take
approximately 14 days.
Larry Bottomley, CEO of the Company,
said:
"Beacon Energy is obviously unable to control third-party
delays of this kind however it is minor slippage to our previously
guided timeline. We continue to prepare the site for the arrival of
the rig so that the side track activities can commence as soon as
possible. We look forward to the commencement of the side track as
we seek to realise the full potential of the SCHB2 well and will
provide further updates on mobilisation as
required."
