Valeura Energy (TSX: VLE): 245% Reserves Replacement Ratio. 2C Resources ~x2.5. Decommissioning down by 35%
- • YE24 2P reserves were estimated at 50 mmbbl (up from 38 mmbbl at YE23).
- This represents a Reserves Replacement Ratio of 245%, significantly above our expectations of ~100%.
- • The reserves revision reflects (1) upward revision of STOIIP estimates (the high achieved recovery factors suggest that the volumes initially in place had been underestimated), (ii), positive drilling results which reflect Valeura’s application of advanced drilling and completion technologies including geosteering and inflow control and (iii) better well performance with lower decline rates than initially estimated.
