Operational update

Cadogan Petroleum plc (“Cadogan” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the successful re-entry of two old, suspended wells drilled in its Monastyretska licence. The wells, which have been rented from Ukrnafta under a profit sharing agreement, are currently producing a combined 30 barrels of oil per day under natural flow. Both wells are under monitoring before proceeding with the installation of sucker rod pumps in order to increase their production rates.

These well re-entries are part of Cadogan’s strategy of increasing production from its Ukrainian licences via a disciplined deployment of its financial resources as an efficient, low-cost operator of marginal fields.
