Pancontinental Energy Says Study at Petroleum Exploration License Offshore Namibia Indicates Low Gas-Oil Ratio Oil, Shares Fall 8%

MT Newswires Live07-31

Pancontinental Energy (ASX:PCL) said that a quantitative interpretation study indicates that there is good potential for a high net-to-gross reservoir system at the petroleum exploration license 87 at the Orange basin in offshore Namibia, with fluid substitution modelling indicating the presence of a low gas-oil-ratio oil, according to a Thursday Australian bourse filing.

The firm estimated prospective recoverable resources for the license at a best case of 2.27 billion barrels of oil, a high case of 5.35 billion barrels of oil, and a low case of 467 million barrels of oil.

Pancontinental engaged a Namibian consultancy, Risk Based Solutions, to provide support as it prepares the environmental impact assessment for future exploration or appraisal drilling within PEL 87. It has begun the environmental impact assessment process for exploration drilling approvals.

The firm's shares fell 8% in recent trading on Thursday.
