JAKARTA, INDONESIA and DANVILLE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 18, 2021 / Indonesia Energy Corporation (NYSE American:INDO) ("IEC"), an oil and gas exploration and production company focused on Indonesia, today announced that it will be hosting an investor conference call on Tuesday, June 8, 2021 in order to provide an update (including initial results) on the drilling and completion of IEC's first new producing well at Kruh Block, called "Kruh 25". IEC will provide specific dial-in details for the call in a separate communication.
As previously announced, this first well commenced drilling on Wednesday, April 21 at 9:30 a.m. on Sumatra Island. The well has a target total depth of 3,400 feet. Kruh 25 is one of the 3 new wells being drilled at Kruh Block this year, which are expected to average production of approximately 170 barrels of oil per day over the first year of production. IEC anticipates that each well will cost approximately $1.5 million to drill and complete. Based on the terms of IEC's contract with the Indonesian government and an assumed oil price of $63.50/barrel, each well is expected to generate $3.33 million in net revenue in its first year, which is more than double the cost to drill each well.
Mr. Frank Ingriselli, IEC's President, commented "We are excited that our first well at Kruh Block is almost at total depth (expected in the next few days). Our 3 new wells, which we have the cash to drill, have the potential to grow production and cash flow for our company by over 200%. This drilling campaign is targeted to significantly grow our cash flow as we seek to maximize returns on our investments and grow shareholder value."
