Tangai-Sukananti - May Operations Update
HIGHLIGHTS
Strong production of 17,442 barrels of oil (100% JV Share) or 9,593 barrels (net to Bass)
Total sales of 17,420 barrels of oil (100% JV Share) or 9,581 barrels (net to Bass)
3% uplift in sales during month of May compared to previous month
Bass Oil Limited (ASX:BAS) is pleased to provide shareholders with an operations update for the Company’s
Indonesian production assets.
Production during the month of May remained strong, totaling 17,442 barrels of oil (100% JV Share) or
9,593 barrels (net to Bass). Bass is pleased with the asset’s recent performance, considering the impact of
unseasonal rain which caused minor constraints to production. Oil sales recorded a 3% uplift compared to
the previous month with total sales equaling 17,420 barrels of oil (100% JV Share) or 9,581 barrels (net to
Bass), at an average price of US$45.68 per barrel. The Joint Venture held higher than normal month-end oil
inventories in the field, due to extensive April-May rainfall resulting in export limitations. The unsold
month-end inventories stood at 2,470 barrels.
Despite minor disruptions to operations in May, the field continues to perform strongly with production
currently at or above 600 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) in early June (100% JV Share) or 330 BOPD (net to
Bass). Development and optimisation opportunities recently identified and capable of adding up to 350
BOPD (100% JV Share) to production will be pursued by the Indonesian based operations team in early Q3
2017. Bass continues to undertake due-diligence on potential growth opportunities within the prolific oil
and gas province which lies in close proximity to the Company’s existing Tangai-Sukananti production
assets.
