ERBIL (Kurdistan24) - A Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) delegation will visit Russia next week to participate in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Investment Board spokesperson Bergasht Akrayi told Kurdistan24 on Monday.
Dr. Mohammed Shukri, Chairman of the Kurdistan Board of Investment, will lead the delegation, which includes 15 to 20 investors and businesspeople from various cities across the Kurdistan Region, following an official invitation to participate in the economic event.
"The Kurdistan Region has received an official invitation to participate in this economic activity," Akrayi said, adding that the delegation's primary objective is to "attract and increase Russian investment in the Kurdistan Region, while also seeking to sign agreements and memoranda of understanding with foreign investors."
The KRG delegation will spend four days in Russia, during which they will participate in several important meetings. "We aim to return with concrete achievements," Akrayi emphasized.
The Kurdistan Region has been actively working to diversify its international economic partnerships and attract foreign investment across various sectors.
This visit to Russia represents a significant step in expanding economic ties between the Kurdistan Region and Russia, particularly important given Russia's significant presence in the energy sector and other industries.
The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is one of Russia's premier business events, attracting international investors and business leaders from around the world.

See Noteshandbook-guidance
Stabilisation transactions mainly have the effect of providing support for the price of an offering of relevant securities during a limited time period if they come under selling pressure, thus alleviating sales pressure generated by short term investors and maintaining an orderly market in the relevant securities. This is in the interest of those investors having subscribed or purchased those relevant securities in the context of a significant distribution, and of issuers. In this way, stabilisation can contribute to greater confidence of investors and issuers in the financial markets. [Note: Recital 11 of the Buy-back and Stabilisation Regulation]

2024 Half Year Results Announcement.

Gulf Keystone, a leading independent operator and producer in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, today announces its results for the half year ended 30 June 2024.

Jon Harris, Gulf Keystone’s Chief Executive Officer, said:

“We have safely delivered a solid operational and financial performance in the first half of 2024, with robust local sales combined with sustained capital and cost discipline supporting our return to profitability and free cash flow generation in the period. Cash flow has enabled us to strengthen our balance sheet and restart shareholder distributions, with $25 million returned to shareholders in 2024 to date.

Looking ahead, we continue to engage with government stakeholders to push for an exports restart solution, with significant potential value to be unlocked for Kurdistan, Iraq and the Company. In the interim, we remain focused on maximising shareholder value from local sales. To capitalise on continued strong demand, we are pursuing incremental opportunities to optimise production and improve process safety and reliability. We also continue to review the Company’s capacity for additional dividends or buybacks to build on our track record of shareholder returns.”

Highlights to 30 June 2024 and post reporting period.

Operational.

Continued strong safety track record, with no Lost Time Incidents for over 590 days
Gross average production increased 69% to 39,252 bopd in H1 2024 (H1 2023: 23,256 bopd), reflecting robust local market demand for Shaikan Field crude
Gross average production of c.41,400 bopd in 2024 year to date
Local market demand rebounded in February and has remained high
Strong gross average production in July of c.47,900 bopd and in August to date of c.48,200 bopd
Realised prices have fluctuated between $25/bbl - $28/bbl and are currently at c.$27/bbl
Shaikan Field reservoir and operations have continued to perform well following the smooth ramp up of production at the beginning of 2024 and the subsequent transition to 24/7 truck loading
No operational impact from regional tensions; we continue to closely monitor the security environment and take precautions to protect the organisation.

Financial.

Successful return to profitability and free cash flow generation in H1 2024 following a challenging 2023, driven by pre-paid local sales and capital and cost discipline
Adjusted EBITDA increased 6% to $36.4 million (H1 2023: $34.2 million) as higher production and cost reductions offset the decline in realised prices related to the transition from exports to discounted local sales.
Revenue decreased 11% to $71.2 million (H1 2023: $79.6m) as the increase in H1 2024 production was more than offset by the 49% decline in average realised price to $26.3/bbl (H1 2023: $51.3/bbl)
Gross operating costs per barrel decreased 25% to $4.2/bbl (H1 2023: $5.6/bbl), reflecting higher production and cost control.
Net capital expenditure of $7.8 million (H1 2023: $47.0 million) reflecting the Company’s focused 2024 work programme of safety critical upgrades and production optimisation expenditures
Monthly average net capex, operating costs and other G&A in H1 2024 of $6.2 million, in line with guidance.
Free cash flow generation of $26.6 million (H1 2023 free cash outflow: $9.9 million) enabled the Company to strengthen its balance sheet and restart shareholder distributions
$25 million returned to shareholders in 2024 year to date, comprising a $10 million share buyback (initiated in May and completed in July) and $15 million interim dividend (paid in July)
Cash balance of $102.3 million as at 30 June 2024 (31 December 2023: $81.7 million); latest balance as at 28 August 2024 of $98.2 million.

Outlook.

GKP remains focused on maximising shareholder value from local sales and unlocking significant potential additional value from the restart of Kurdistan exports.

Local sales and production.

The Company sees continued robust local sales demand in the near term while longer term market dynamics remain uncertain
The Shaikan Field is producing close to its maximum capacity reflecting prudent reservoir management in the current investment constrained environment
Planned safety-critical upgrades and maintenance are scheduled for November 2024, requiring the shutdown of PF-1 for c.3 weeks with an expected gross production impact of c.26,000 bopd, as previously announced
The Company continues to exercise capital and cost discipline to maximise free cash flow while maintaining production capacity to respond to local market demand and the restart of exports.

Average monthly aggregate net capex, operating costs and other G&A run rate in 2024 now expected to be c.$7 million
Reflects incremental expenditures on production optimisation, process safety & reliability and associated resources to capitalise on continued local sales demand following the strong performance year to date
Net capex and operating costs expected to be weighted to H2 2024, as safety critical upgrades are completed as part of the planned PF-1 shutdown; estimated 2024 net capex remains c.$20 million.

Shareholder distributions.

GKP remains committed to returning excess cash to shareholders via dividends or share buybacks, subject to conserving sufficient liquidity to manage the current operating environment and ensuring the Company is able to transition successfully from local sales to the restart of Kurdistan exports and normalisation of Kurdistan Regional Government (“KRG”) payments.

Kurdistan exports.

GKP continues to engage with government stakeholders regarding a pipeline exports restart solution with the objective of unlocking significant potential value for shareholders
GKP remains ready to restart exports, contingent upon reaching agreements on payment surety for future oil exports, the repayment of outstanding exports sales receivables (of which GKP is owed over $150 million net) and the preservation of current contract economics.

GKP’s management team will be hosting a presentation for analysts and investors at 10:00am (BST) today via live audio webcast:
