Quarterly Reports
For The Period Ending 30 June 2017 and Appendix 5B
The Board of Red Emperor Resources NL ("Red Emperor" or the
"Company") provides the following commentary and Appendix 5B for
the period ending 30 June 2017.
Philippines (SC 55)
During the quarter, Red Emperor provided further information to
the Philippines Department of Energy (DoE) on request in the hope
that the approval to have its equity interest in Block SC55
increased (from 15% to 37.5%) so a work program consisting of
geological and interpretive studies can be undertaken. Red Emperor
participated in a USD $25m exploration well (Hawkeye) within the
block in 2015 and contributed in excess of AUD $5m towards drilling
costs. Over USD $50m has been spent exploring the block to date and
a number of drill-ready targets remain, including the "Cinco" gas
prospect which has a best estimate prospective resource of 1.6tcf
recoverable gas. Given the Hawkeye well discovered gas and a
working petroleum system relatively close to Cinco, Red Emperor
believes that Block SC 55 remains a key asset for the Company to
maintain exposure to.
Georgia
Over the course of the past month, Red Emperor has been
negotiating with Range Resources Limited to sell its 20% interest
in Strait Oil & Gas for a nominal sum and a royalty. After a
long and frustrating Joint Venture and uncertainty over the tenure
of Blocks VIa and VIb, the company concluded that a divestment was
both prudent and opportunistic. Full details of the proposed sale
will be made available to shareholders in due course after formal
documentation has been agreed and executed. The carrying value of
this asset was written down to nil some time ago and the Company
does not consider its shareholding to be of a core nature to its
ongoing business activities or strategy.
Corporate
Red Emperor continued to review and assess a number of
opportunities within the oil & gas sector during the quarter.
The company also undertook due diligence on two assets outside the
oil & gas space, specifically resource projects. While it
remains focused on its current main undertaking, the board believes
it to be a prudent strategy to widen its focus to include
opportunities in all sectors that could potentially add value to
shareholders, while it awaits formal approval from the Philippines
DoE. This philosophy, coupled with the continued depressed oil
& gas market and the company's strong cash balance, has the
support of the company's major shareholders, the full board and its
advisors.
