Stockwatch today.

Jake Ulrich's Sterling Resources Ltd. (SLG) added half a cent to 16.5 cents on 864,900 shares, its heaviest volume since October. It spent that month falling to 30 cents from 50 cents as investors fretted over its finances. Its main asset, the 30-per-cent-held Breagh gas field in the North Sea, had faced a delayed start-up, unexpected shutdowns and lower-than-modelled production over the past year. This was a problem because Sterling had issued $225-million (U.S.) of bonds in 2013 with the expectation that Breagh would do better. The bondholders cut the company some slack at a bondholder meeting last December, but a $32.7-million (U.S.) payment remained due to them at the end of this April, so Sterling began casting about for money. Options included the sale of part of Breagh or of non-producing assets in Romania. Today, Sterling announced that it had found a buyer for its Romanian assets, Carlyle International Energy Partners, which will pay $42 147104.5-million (U.S.).
This would be very heartening but for two things: One, Sterling has to pay a $10-million (U.S.) termination fee to a energy fund because of a 2007 investment deal, and two, the sale will likely not close until after April, so the bondholders may not see their money on time. Sterling is "considering options" for short-term liquidity. For the long term, it is still mulling a sale of part of Breagh, as well as potential financings. It can take heart that Breagh is getting better. Year to date, the field has produced about 38 million net cubic feet a day, slightly ahead of analysts' predictions. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the North Sea, the Cladhan field remains on schedule to start production in the third quarter.

RBC today..
OMV has announced an oil discovery at the Marina 1 exploration well ~60km offshore Romania.The well, drilled on the Istria XVIII permit, was drilled to a TD of ~2200m in 50m of water and initial tests indicate production of 1500-2000boe/day
The Istria XVIII permit is adjacent to the Sterling-operated Pelecan (65%) and Luceafarul (SLG 65%) permits. The company is currently seeking farm-downs for all its Romanian permits ahead of three exploration wells which are planned in 2015 (one in the Luceafarul block).

Sterling Resources (SLG.V): Breagh update confirms production and development
remains on track

Sterling released an update on Breagh Phase 1 yesterday outlining production and development plans for 2014 onwards, alongside an outline of exploration and appraisal drilling and costs for 2014 and 2015.

Drilling started at Breagh A08 well:
Following the successful A07 fracture stimulation, drilling has commenced on the A08 well, ~1.8km northeast of the Breagh Alpha platform. The well is expected to encounter the better quality sandstones seen in the northeastern areas of the field, with contingency plans to sidetrack and hydraulically fracture stimulate if required. Further drilling of two more wells and possibly two sidetracks are being considered for late-2015, subject to rig availability.

H2/14 increase in production:
Sterling expects gas sales production for H2/14 of ~120MMscf/d (36MMscf/d net to SLG), slightly ahead of our current forecast, and 111MMscf/d in 2015 (33MMscf/d net), in line with expectation. The company's average gas sales production for 2014 is expected to be 27 MMscf/d net, consistent with expectations, with additional condensate expected to be produced. The production forecasts assume the A07 and A08 wells come on-stream in August and October, respectively, and the sidetracks and hydraulic fracking contributes from H2/15.

Updated capex in line:
Sterling's capex for Breagh Phase 1 is $21m in H2/14 and $29m in 2015, in line with our expectations. The company's total capex remains unchanged at ~$42m in H2/14 and ~$60m in 2015. However, the 2015 capex estimate assumes Sterling secures farm-out deals in Romania ahead of exploration and retains half the current equity interest prior any benefit of expected promotes. Sterling expects to have cash of ~$37m, in line with our forecast, at the end of H1/14. Financing considerations are ongoing and H2/14 operating cash flow is expected to be ~$38m.

Exploration catalyst expected later in H2/14 and 2015:
Following completion of the A08 well, the rig will move to the Crosgan field (SLG 30%), 25km northeast of Breagh. We include upside / risk of +C$0.04/-C$0.03 per share for this well in our C$1.17/share NAV. In H2/14 Sterling also expects to drill an exploration well on the UK North Sea Beverley prospect (SLG 20%), with the company largely carried on well costs. We include upside/risk of +C$0.13/-C$0.02 per share for this well in our NAV for this higher impact well. Four exploration wells are planned in 2015: one offshore UK (Niadar prospect, SLG 100%) and three offshore Romania (one in the Luceafarul block, SLG 50%, and two in the Muridava block, SLG 40%). The intention is to drill all wells post farm-down processes.

Sterling Resources (SLG.V): Q1/14 impacted by 3-week shut-in at Breagh
Sterling reported Q1/14 results overnight. As a result of the three-week shut-in at the Breagh gas field (SLG 30%), gross production averaged ~23MMscf/d in Q1/14, generating revenue of ~$20.5m, slightly ahead of our $18m forecast. During the quarter, the company also realised a gain of ~$27m on the sale of the Midia Deep block in the Romanian Black Sea.
Operating cash flow of ~$11m was slightly lower than anticipated. Sterling ended the quarter with cash of ~$46m, and restricted cash of ~$10m in accordance with the bond requirements. In the remaining quarters, Sterling expects to spend ~$60m in capex, which includes development spending at Breagh and two exploration wells.
Romania farm-out completed, Muridava-1 well ongoing: Following the farm-out of the deepwater area within the Midia block, a 3D seismic program over key parts of the Midia Shallow and Pelican blocks (SLG 65%) was completed earlier than expected in Q1/14. This will accelerate the company's planned farm down of this acreage. On the Muridava block (SLG 40%),the Muridava-1 exploration well started drilling in early April and is expected to take two months to complete. The well is on the same geological trend as the existing Olimpiyskaya and Eugenia gas discoveries; we include upside/risk of +C$0.15/-C$0.03 per share for a ~170Bcf discovery in our C$1.20/share NAV. The other two commitment wells for the block have been postponed to 2015.
Two UK exploration wells in H2/14: Exploration wells at the Beverly (SLG 20%) and Crosgan(SLG 30%) prospects remain scheduled for H2/14. We include a combined upside/risk of +C$0.17/-C$0.05 per share for these wells, Sterling are mostly carried through the Beverly well through a farm-out arrangement.

I cannot find anything in the December 2013 news release that mentions lower guidance for Breagh either. Here's what I have:

From the 3Q13 interim report, dated 30.09.13:
Average production in 2014, including the contribution from the eighth well, is now expected to be approximately 129 million standard cubic feet per day ("MMscf/d")(39 MMscf/d net to Sterling) with an exit rate at the end of 2014 of 114 MMscf/d (34 MMscf/d net to Sterling).

From the RNS dated 13.01.14:
Expected production guidance for 2014 remains 129 MMscf/d for 100 percent of the field (39 MMscf/d net to Sterling), as previously announced on November 20, 2013.

And here's the December 30, 2013 RNS in full - there's nothing about it there:

STERLING RESOURCES ANNOUNCES RESTART OF PRODUCTION FROM BREAGH

Calgary, Alberta, Canada, December 30, 2013 – Sterling Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SLG) ("Sterling" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the restart of Breagh production on December 27, 2013. This follows a period of approximately seven weeks shut-in as a result of a significant production incident on November 7th, as reported earlier. The investigation into the production incident continues with an expected completion date at the end of January 2014. However, interim feedback from the investigation has identified the necessary actions to permit production restart and continuation of re-commissioning activities following the replacement of the barred tee-junction and various other repairs to the inlet to the gas plant.

Initial production rates from the field will be variable as these commissioning activities progress. In addition, a two day planned shutdown is scheduled for the first week of January 2014 to allow the Ensco 70 drilling rig to move off location and transfer to a shipyard for necessary work required as part of normal marine certification requirements.

Breagh well A07 has been drilled to total depth having encountered reservoir sands in accordance with prognosis. The well has been suspended with the completion tubing run and the Xmas tree set. The Ensco 70 rig is scheduled to return early in the second quarter of 2014 to bring the A07 well into production using hydraulic stimulation, before completing the Phase 1 drilling program by drilling an additional production well A08. Completing well A07 using hydraulic stimulation is planned to provide enhanced production to Phase 1, while also providing valuable information to support Phase 2 investment decisions.

The Company now expects an average gross production rate for 2014 of 106 to 112 MMscf/d (32 to 34 MMscf/d net to Sterling), below the previous guidance of 129 MMscf/d.
This revised guidance for 2014 is attributable to a number of factors including (1) the drilling and completion of wells A07 and A08 later than previously envisaged, (2) a slower than forecast ramp up to full rates for each of the individual wells, and (3) the short-term impact of remaining commissioning activities.
The gross production rate at the end of 2014 is now forecast to be 118 MMscf/d.

Typical SLG - 20% lower Breagh output - I suppose we should be thankful for small mercies.

Sterling Resources Announces Success in the UK 27th Offshore Licencing Round

Sterling Resources Ltd (TSXV:SLG)

Today : Monday 2 December 2013


CALGARY, Dec. 2, 2013 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (TSXV: SLG) ("Sterling" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has been successful in the UK 27th Offshore Licencing Round awards (second tranche), which were recently announced by the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC).

Sterling has been informed by DECC of the successful award of a licence covering Blocks 42/2(split), 42/3(split), 42/4, 42/5 & 36/30, which are located approximately 25 kilometres north of the Breagh gas field. Sterling Resources will be the operator of the licence with a 100 percent working interest. Work commitments for this traditional licence award include obtaining and reprocessing 2D seismic data and drilling a firm well within the traditional 4-year licence period.

"We have continued investigating further Carboniferous prospects in the area near to our Breagh gas field based on Sterling's database of 2D seismic data over all of these newly licenced blocks and in particular a re-interpreted 3D seismic survey over two of the blocks awarded in this round that was acquired by Sterling in 2010," stated David Findlater, Sterling's Vice-President of Exploration. "In addition to several Carboniferous prospects, we have identified an exciting Permian reef play that covers several of the blocks, which we believe has a significant potential resources possibility. We look forward to kicking-off our farm-out at PROSPEX 2013 sponsored by the Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain (PESGB) and the UK licencing authority DECC in early December in London," added Mr. Findlater.

"Sterling is extremely pleased with this award, which provides an opportunity to explore both more traditional and new plays close to our existing Breagh infrastructure," stated Jake Ulrich, Sterling's Interim CEO. "This fits very well into our strategy to build-up our North Sea portfolio around our existing acreage and infrastructure," added Mr. Ulrich.

Sterling is a Canadian-listed international oil and gas company headquartered in Calgary, Alberta with assets in the United Kingdom, Romania, France and the Netherlands. The common shares are listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange Venture (TSX-V) exchange under the symbol "SLG".

Sterling Resources announces further operational update for Breagh

Sterling Resources Ltd (TSXV:SLG)
Intraday Stock Chart
Today : Tuesday 19 November 2013

CALGARY, Nov. 19, 2013 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (TSXV: SLG) ("Sterling" or the "Company") announces that the key physical investigative work has been completed and has identified several damaged elements at the inlet area to the Teesside Gas Processing Plant ("TGPP") at Seal Sands, near Teesside on the east coast of England.

When gas reaches the TGPP, there is a buried junction at which point gas and liquids are taken off above ground to be processed in the plant, and any pigging devices are removed from the pipeline. The junction is fitted with bars ("Barred Tee-Junction") to guide the pigging devices to pigging reception facilities.

The key findings of the physical investigation to date are as follows:

Inspection of the junction has been completed by means of a remotely controlled camera, which showed that the bars within the junction are severely deformed;

After removal of the spool piece on the inlet to the gas/liquid separator two damaged pipeline spheres used in pigging operations to sweep the pipeline of liquids were found; and

Four thermo-wells between the Barred Tee-Junction and the inlet to the gas/liquid separator, which protrude into the gasline at the inlet to the plant, were severely deformed. Temperature probes in the thermowells were damaged, thereby creating the indications of abnormal conditions.
Remedial action plans are being developed for rectification of the surveyed damage. Preliminary estimates for return to production is six to eight weeks. A full root cause investigation into the occurrence is ongoing.

"The initial physical investigations have identified areas of immediate repair which are being addressed on an urgent basis," stated John Rapach, Sterling's Chief Operating Officer. "We are concerned at this occurrence and are working closely with our partner RWE Dea to ensure a thorough understanding of the event. Once the root cause investigation is complete, a full statement on both progress of repairs, and definitive work scope and schedule will be made," added Mr. Rapach.

The Breagh field is located in UKCS blocks 42/12a and 42/13a of the Southern North Sea in 62 metres water depth, approximately 100 kilometres east of Teesside. Gas is exported via a 20-inch pipeline from the Breagh Alpha platform to Coatham Sands, Redcar on the UK mainland, and then via an 11 kilometre buried onshore pipeline to the TGPP at Seal Sands for processing. The TGPP site is owned by North Sea Midstream Partners and after processing at the TGPP, the gas enters the UK National Transmission System. During 2009, RWE Dea UK acquired its current 70 percent interest in the Breagh gas field and became operator, with Sterling retaining the remaining 30 percent.

Sterling is a Canadian-listed international oil and gas company headquartered in Calgary, Alberta with assets in the United Kingdom, Romania, France and the Netherlands. The Common Shares are listed and posted for trading on the TSX-V under the symbol "SLG".
