Drilling of the first of the three firm new wells has reached a depth of 2,500 metres. On the current rate of progress target depth of approximately 3,300 metres should be achieved in the next 7 days.

The workover of the Triche well continues on plan. It is projected that in the event of success the workover will result in both the Triche and Simmons wells being placed back on production during the first week of December.

Paraguay

The previously announced farm out of the Pirity Concession remains on track to be completed at the end of the month.

A more comprehensive announcement in relation to this transaction is expected to be made on or about 30 November.

"While there is certainly a lot of excitement surrounding the forthcoming flotation of the Company's subsidiary Atome Energy PLC just as exciting is the important work that the team continues to deliver on the ground in Argentina, the United States and Paraguay.

"Thus I am pleased to report that the progress continues and I remain grateful to my colleagues for their diligence and continued honest endeavour in keeping on point and focused on our objectives within the hydrocarbon businesses. Thanks to them our plans remain on track and our production is increasing".
