Whilst the expectation to Orlando reserves remain within the expected envelope,
the restricted field production at around 5,000 bopd, means that there has been
a need to re-evaluate and downgrade the Orlando asset value by DKK 17.2MM due to
the time value of money. Due to this downgrade Atlantic Petroleum now expects a
net loss in 2019.
Mark T. Højgaard, CEO of Atlantic Petroleum said:
"Getting production revenue from the Orlando field in the next quarter will be
an important milestone for Atlantic Petroleum. The cashflow will be instrumental
in restructuring the debt and in being able to add new assets to our asset
portfolio."
