A combination of negative events led to a 7.6% year over year and 6.1% quarter over quarter decline in production. Management estimates that the events reduced production by 1,350 boe/day. The decline was larger than expected and led to management taking down 2023 production guidance to 9,100-9,500 boe/day from 9,500-10,000 boe/day. The production decline is unfortunate but should be viewed as temporary.
New wells coming on should boost production. Six wells have recently, or are about to, come on line. Initial well production is impressive. In addition, six new wells are planned for the rest of 2023. Management believes processing constraints should ease in the third quarter. Higher production, combined with easing processing constraints should help boost cash flow and earnings.
