About Hurricane
Hurricane was established to discover, appraise and develop
hydrocarbon resources associated with naturally fractured basement
reservoirs. The Company's acreage is concentrated on the Rona
Ridge, in the West of Shetland region of the UK Continental
Shelf.
The Lancaster field (100%) is Hurricane's most appraised asset,
with five wells drilled by the Company to date. It has 2P reserves
and 2C contingent resources of 523 million stock tank barrels of
oil. The Company is currently proceeding towards the first phase of
development of Lancaster, an Early Production System which will be
the UK's first basement field development. It involves a two well
tie-back to the Aoka Mizu FPSO and is expected to initially produce
17,000 barrels of oil per day. First oil is targeted for 1H
2019.
Hurricane's other assets include Lincoln (50%), Warwick (50%),
Halifax (100%), Whirlwind (100%), and Strathmore (100%). Together
with Lancaster, these assets have total combined 2P reserves and 2C
contingent resources of 2.6 billion barrels of oil equivalent (2.3
billion barrels of oil equivalent net to Hurricane).
In September 2018, Spirit Energy farmed-in to 50% of the Lincoln
and Warwick assets, committing to a five-phase work programme
targeting sanction of full field development in 2021.
