据积极投资者4月21日消息,未来两年,Zephyr Energy PLC与bp合作, 对威利斯顿盆地非经营性资产组合中的32.8万桶石油产量进行了对冲。
该计划将保证3000万美元的预计收入,包括基于当前价格为每桶100.80美元,并到2024 年上半年末逐步下降至82.20美元的原油商品互换协议。
该计划旨在为其高级债务提供现金流担保,并在很大程度上降低Paradox盆地项目即将进行的钻探的资金需求风险。
该公司表示,该协议涵盖的产量不到未来两年其非经营投资组合所有储备类别总预测产量的 50%。
预计在未来24个月内,威利斯顿盆地的提升成本平均约为每桶16美元。
威利斯顿盆地资产的合格人士报告(CPR)也是基于远低于对冲计划水平的价格。
Zephyr的首席执行官Colin Harrington表示:“在过去的12个月里,Zephyr成功完成了五项在威利斯顿盆地生产非经营性资产的收购。
“最近全球油价大幅上涨,导致价格远高于我们完成这些收购时的预期水平,因此我很高兴能够在此时宣布实施我们的首个对冲计划。
“我们预计,至少在未来12个月内,我们所有预测的资本承诺都将通过现有现金资源和生产现金流的组合获得全部资金。”
他补充道:“CPR对Paradox项目的主要调查结果预计将于下周初公布。”

Zephyr Energy hedges 50% of production with BP
Zephyr Energy PLC has hedged 328,000 barrels of oil production from its non-operated asset portfolio in the Williston Basin over the next two years with BP.
The programme, which will guarantee US$30mln of forecast revenue, comprises crude oil commodity swap agreements based on a current price of US$100.80 a barrel and declining in stages to US82.20 by the end of the first half of 2024.
The programme was structured to provide cashflow surety for its senior debt obligations and materially to de-risk funding requirements for the upcoming drilling at the Paradox Basin project.
The production covered by the agreement amounts to less than 50% of the total forecast production from all reserve categories on its non-operated portfolio over the next two years, it said.
Williston Basin lifting costs are forecast to average approximately US$16 per barrel over the next 24 months.
The Competent Persons Report (CPR) for its Williston Basin assets was also based on prices well below the hedging programme levels.
Colin Harrington, Zephyr’s chief executive, said: "Zephyr successfully completed five acquisitions of producing non-operated assets in the Williston Basin over the last twelve months.
“The recent and substantial increase in global oil prices has now resulted in prices well above levels expected when we closed those acquisitions, so I'm delighted to be able to announce the implementation of our inaugural hedge programme at this time.
“We expect all our forecast capital commitments, for at least the next twelve months to be fully funded through a combination of existing cash resources and cash flow from production.
“Key findings of the CPR on the Paradox project are expected early next week,” he added.
