SP Angel Morning View: Albemarle raises guidance on strong lithium market dynamics

Pan African Resources - Valuation up 22.2% with new gold price forecasts

On 22 November, Pan African Resources (PAF) announced that operations to date in FY24 had performed in line with, or better than, expected, with gold production for H124 anticipated to be in the range 94,000–98,000oz (cf 92,307oz in H123). As a result, it increased its production guidance for FY24 to 180,000–190,000oz, which caused us to increase our production estimate in turn by 1.9% (or 3,575oz) to 189,725oz. The change made only a modest difference to our EPS forecasts for FY24 (see Exhibit

Sylvania Platinum - Q124 production up, costs down

Sylvania Platinum is a low-risk, high-yielding South African platinum group metals (PGM) dump retreatment operation. Despite a 15% fall in the PGM basket in Q124 versus Q423, the company maintained a healthy cash position of US$126.9m at end September 2023. Production in Q124 was better than we estimated. Unit costs were down in every cost category in response to higher ounces produced, but despite this, EBITDA and net profit were sharply lower. The company is controlling capex as capital alloca

Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): CN-2 flows at up to 1 mbbl/d. Focusing on developping the Ubaque at Carrizales Norte

• The Carrizales Norte-2 well (CN-2) encountered 60’ of net pay in the Ubaque formation. • The well has been put on production in the Ubaque with initial flow rates of 1,012 barrels of fluid per day. The water cut stabilized at 3% and the oil gravity is 13.6 API. • The CN-2 well is currently producing 680 bbl/d gross (340 bbl/d net) as the company has set the ESP at the minimum optimum rate to maximize recovery factor. The build-up analysis indicates the well can produce at 1,400 bbl/d gross at

Hurricane Energy - Resource downgrade warning

Hurricane’s technical committee has concluded that there is a reasonable probability that the oil water contact (OWC) in the Lancaster field is shallower than the range of OWCs estimated in the 2017 competent person’s report (CPR) by RPS Energy. As a result, the company believes there is a risk that the estimated reserves for the Lancaster early production system (EPS) and the contingent resources across the West of Shetland portfolio will be materially downgraded. Given the range of outcomes wh

Arrow Exploration (AXL LN) - CN-1 initial well result

Successful initial result of CN-1 well. Arrow has announced a discovery in its CN-1 exploration well on the Carrizales Norte prospect onshore Colombia (Arrow 50%). The well has intersected a total of 148ft of net pay across the Carbonera C7 (26ft), Gacheta (64ft) and Ubaque (58ft) reservoirs.

Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): Exploration success at Carrizales Norte

• The Carrizales Norte-1 (CN-1) exploration well encountered a total of 148 feet of net oil pay measured depth (128 feet TVD) across three very high quality sands. We understand that this well above pre-drill expectations. • This is the largest net oil pay encountered by a well so far on Tapir (RCE-5: 90 feet, RCE-4: 45 feet, RCE-3: 58 feet, RCE-2 80 feet, RCS-1: 55 feet). Because the reservoirs encountered at CN-1 are slightly deeper than at Rio Cravo, the pressure of the reservoirs is expected

Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): Zone at Carrizales Norte with no booked reserves has flowed >1 mbbl/d

• The Ubaque horizon at the Carrizales Norte-1 (CN-1) exploration well was put on three tests, the last of which tested at 1,134 bbl/d of 13.5 API oil on pump. The flow rate was stabilized with a 28.3% water cut (completion fluid). The water cut has been decreasing throughout testing. • This is a very good result, given that no reserves are booked in the Ubaque. • There is an opportunity to mix the heavy oil from the Ubaque with the C7 light to maximize pricing. • Arrow plans to complete the t

Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): No flow from the Gacheta but overall reserves addition from CN-1 larger than initially expected

• The Gacheta zones proved unproductive at the CN-1 well location. Management is investigating potential reasons for the lack of productivity and plans to re-evaluate these Gacheta zones in future wells. • The Gacheta zones were located above the Ubaque that flowed at rates >1,100 bbl/d. • Arrow will put in production the C7A and C7 zones during the course of next week. These are the primary zones at Carrizales Norte. • Overall, the company’s preliminary interpretation of the CN-1 discovery sug

Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): CN-1 well in production at 1.1 mbbl/d from the C7 sands

• The C7 formation (~26 feet of net oil pay) in the Carrizales Norte-1 well (CN-1) is now in production at a rate of 1.1 mbbl/d (550 bbl/d net to Arrow). The well produced very light oil (33.5 deg API) and is on pump set at the lowest setting. • During the flow test, the sands flowed at a peak rate of 1,272 bbl/d. During the final hour of the test water cut stood at 12%. The water cut has decreased throughout the well test. • This is one of the best initial production rates among the wells dri
