Commenting on the results, Philip Stephens, Chairman of Egdon said: “The Company has continued to make good progress on implementing its strategy against a backdrop of reduced oil prices. The Wressle oil and gas discovery has been successfully drilled and tested at rates exceeding 700 boepd combined from four intervals. We are now working towards the early development of this discovery and expect Wressle to add to our existing production and revenues. We have continued the development of our Northern England unconventional resource exploration portfolio, with the exercise of our option on PL161 and PL162 and ongoing detailed assessment of the acreage acquired from Alkane Energy. We have seen a further high value farm-out deal between IGas and INEOS in recent weeks and Egdon continues to review the best timing to introduce a suitable funding partner into our high quality unconventional resource acreage. We anticipate undertaking further drilling for conventional resources in the coming period on the back of successful planning applications, and, subject to receipt of all necessary consents, participation in the first exploration well for unconventional resources in the Gainsborough Trough. Our strong balance sheet leaves us well positioned to enable us to deliver on our forthcoming work programme and strategy.”View or Download Interim Results Press Release
