Q3 FY24 Quarterly Report
23rd April 2024
Walyering Gas Plant
Comments from Managing Director & CEO, Stuart Nicholls:
“Positive performance from the Walyering gas field continued, with a 21% increase in
production delivering record quarterly revenue of ~$18 million. Whilst the South Erregulla
testing results were disappointing, we are now looking forward to our upcoming high-impact
drilling campaign including the Walyering-7 appraisal and the Erregulla Deep exploration
well. With the West Erregulla field development progressing towards a final investment
decision targeted for Q3 2024, and the recent completion of the Ocean Hill 3D seismic
acquisition, the company remains well positioned to benefit from rising WA energy prices.”

Walyering (L23, 100% and operator)
2
•
The Walyering gas field produced a total of 2.29 PJe of gas and condensate for the quarter or
approximately 24 TJ/d of sales gas and 176 bbls of condensate. Daily gas production rose by
20% from the previous quarter along with a 9% increase in realised gas prices as a result of
the Company commencing into the gas sales agreement with Alinta Energy WA Pty Ltd.
•
Strike successfully delivered 34 TJ from the Walyering gas field on 4 February 2024 and has
produced at instantaneous rates of up to 38 TJ/d, demonstrating the upstream facility’s
throughput capacity is capable of exceeding its nameplate of 33 TJ/d.
•
A Gas Transportation Agreement was executed with APA to allow up to 10 TJ/d of sales gas to
be delivered from the Parmelia Gas Pipeline into the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas
Pipeline expected from late 2024 upon completion of the construction and commissioning
of the new inter-pipeline connection at Mondarra by APA Group Pty Ltd.
•
Strike has spent much of the last quarter preparing for the Walyering-7 appraisal well, which
will be drilled from the Walyering facility, allowing for a low cost and quick tie-in on success.
Spud is expected to occur shortly after rig handover in late April. Walyering-7 is targeting a
fault block directly North and on trend with the producing Walyering-5 compartment with
which it shares a bounding fault required for the trapping geometry and interpreted charge
mechanism.
Sales gas production includes gas invoiced in a prior period and taken as ‘banked gas’ pursuant to the ‘Take or Pay’ contract with Santos WA Ltd.
2
WA Energy Market
3
•
WA gas market conditions eased during the
Quarter, which Strike believes is on the back of
pressure from the preliminary findings of the
Economic Standing Committee’s review into
the WA Domestic Gas Policy. However, due to
declines in some domestic only gas supplies,
prices remained elevated against historical
averages with the maximum quarterly WA spot
gas price averaging $9.34 GJ.
•
The Economic Standing Committee released
its interim report 3 on its review of the WA
Domestic Gas Policy in late February. Several
findings may impact Strike’s business going
forward. These are summarised below:
o
The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has forecast that WA will experience
a gas shortfall and there was no indication in the interim report that the AEMO is
incorrect.
o
There is a credible risk that the State will face a substantial gas supply shortfall
starting in the near term and continuing for most of the next decade. If this shortfall
materialises it will likely lead to higher energy prices and threaten to undermine the
State’s decarbonisation agenda.
o
Lifting of the export ban placed on Perth Basin gas resources may facilitate faster
development and greater volumes of gas into the domestic market through the
availability of greater pools of capital as a result.
o
Some existing LNG producers have not produced the amount of domestic gas as per
the spirit of the original WA Domestic Gas Policy and Government interventions
could be looked at to ensure the market is not adversely affected. (From Strike’s
perspective, if the LNG producers were to supply more domestic gas, this would
reduce the risk that a shortfall ever materialises and ease the pathway for the State
to lift the ban on Strike exporting a portion of its gas)
•
In response to the release of this interim report, Woodside Energy announced that it had
agreed to supply additional Pluto gas through the North West Shelf which would largely
address the expected shortfall of gas in WA.
•
Electricity markets continue to be a major driver of new gas demand. This is due to the fall
in annual coal fired base load supply and the increasing supply from intermittent solar and
wind. The increase in the speed of electrification and demand for electricity continues to
touch new highs with the first quarter of 2024 recording the top-6 electricity demand days
of all time in the South West Interconnect System (SWIS). The quarter’s cost for electricity
in WA averaged $78.50/MWh, with a significant increase in peak energy prices (4pm – 9pm)
to $172/MWh, a 6% and 65% increase respectively on the March 2023 quarter.
•
The 19th of February 2024 saw a new all-time maximum underlying demand of 5 GW which
superseded the previous high set the day before during a period of consecutive high
temperatures. During peak evening electricity demand, gas made up ~60% of the total fuel
load, where diesel (distillate) generation was also required to meet underlying demand.
The full interim report can be found under Current Inquiries at www.parliament.wa.gov.au or here.
3
During long periods on these two days the WA wholesale electricity price reached its price
cap of $738 MW, which on a like for like basis with a gas peaking power plant would infer a
look through gas price of ~$74 GJ 4.
Exploration & Development
South Erregulla (L24, STX 100% and operator)
4
•
During the quarter, South Erregulla 2 and 3 were flow tested and failed to produce
commercial flows of gas to surface.
•
The flow testing results at South Erregulla were in conflict with the drilling results where logs,
mud gas and pressures indicated gas intersections. The interpretation of these physical flow
testing results is still undergoing further 3rd party review, however the presence of anomalous
fresh water production comingled with the gas is interpreted to be the root cause for the flow
testing results not matching the post logging expectations. Of particular note, applying a
fresh water cutoff to the petrophysical interpretation at South Erregulla-1 (which flowed at a
maximum rate of 80 mmscf/d on test) generates a false-negative petrophysical response
and thus infers the Kingia Sandstone at SE-1 would flow water and gas, similarly to SE-2 and
3, which was clearly not the case. These anomalous results suggest the Permian is more
compartmentalised with different aquifers, water gradients and geochemistry than first
interpreted.
•
South Erregulla is currently undergoing a Reserves and Resources review where Strike is
confident that (an albeit smaller) Reserve exists in the Eastern compartment of the field
demonstrated by the SE-1 flow test. Work with independent certifier NSAI is planned to be
completed before the end of the financial year.
Assumes ~10 GJ of gas consumption per MWh of electricity production.
4
•
Despite these geological setbacks, and in line with a likely smaller Reserve at South
Erregulla, Strike is reviewing the development concept and investigating a standalone
development supported by the South Erregulla gas discovery. This commercialisation
pathway will be designed to maximise the revenue generation from every mmscf of gas
produced from the field. Strike intends to make further disclosure on this development in
the coming quarter.
West Erregulla (EP469, STX
50% and operator)
•
During the quarter the West
Erregulla
upstream
development
Part
IV
environmental EPA report and
recommendation progressed
through the appeals process,
as did the Australian Gas
Infrastructure Group (AGIG)
midstream development EPA
report and recommendation.
Both of these appeals are
expected to conclude prior to
the end of the coming quarter.
•
Further work by AGIG on the
repricing of the midstream 87
TJ/d gas plant was carried out
during and is expected to be
finalised in the following
quarter
with
definitive
documentation
progressing
towards an FID targeted by
Strike for Q3/24.
•
Further work on the Field
Development Plan for the 87
TJ/d
development
was
conducted and is undergoing a
joint venture review process.
•
Strike
progressed
the
Production Licence application
and expects it to be granted by
DMIRS in the following quarter.
•
Strike has spent much of the
quarter preparing for exploration drilling at Erregulla Deep-1, where Strike believes a
potentially material gas resource exists. Strike expects to spud this well in June ‘24 following
the drilling at Walyering.
Ocean Hill (EP495, STX 100% and operator)
•
During the quarter, 256 km² of 3D seismic was successfully acquired by Terrex Seismic over
the Ocean Hill gas discovery. The acquisition was completed on time and on budget.
5
•
Processing of this dataset will be conducted by Earth Signal Processing, who recently
conducted the Walyering 3D seismic re-processing. This much anticipated high-resolution
dataset will be used to site a potential future appraisal well to test the existing large 2C
Contingent Resource.
Arrino-Kadathinni (EP503 & 504, STX 100% and operator)
•
On the 18th of April Terrex Seismic commenced the 479 km Kadathinni 2D seismic survey
where more than 100 km² of Permian closure has been identified on both historical and the
South Erregulla Maior 2D seismic volumes.
•
The four structures that make up the Arrino-Kadathinni complex on the Tathra Terrace
represent the next Permian frontier for the basin. The play remains open to the East where
no wells have ever been drilled to Kingia depth anywhere on the Eastern side of the
Dandaragan Trough, which is more proximal to the North-Eastern sediment deposition trend.
The Arrino-Kadathinni structures are currently interpreted to be at similar depths to Lockyer
and West/South and North Erregulla.
L7/EP437 Joint Venture
•
During the quarter Strike as non-operator along with joint venture partners Triangle Energy
(Global) Limited (operator) and New Zealand Oil & Gas Limited approved the work program
and budget for the drilling of the Booth-1 oil and gas exploration well in L7.
•
Triangle has contracted the Ventia 106 rig to drill the Booth-1 well in Permit L7 on behalf of
the L7 JV and expects to receive the well late June – July.
•
The Booth prospect, located in the east of L7, is targeting gas at the Kingia-High Cliff
reservoirs with potential for oil or gas in the overlying Dongara and Jurassic sandstones.

•
During the quarter total gross sales were 2.21 PJe of gas and condensate. This was made up
of 2.1 PJ of sales gas and 13,400 bbls of associated condensate across 3 liftings. Average daily
production was 24 TJ/d noting the commencement in February of the 100% Take-or-Pay, 2year, Alinta Energy Gas Sales Agreement.
•
Gas sales revenues for the quarter were ~$16 million. Averaged realised gas prices were ~$7.54
GJ, 5% higher than the previous quarter, due to the commencement of the Alinta Gas Sales
Agreement and slightly higher USD exchange rates. Condensate liftings and sales from Port
Bonython totalled ~$1.6 million and averaged ~$119/bbl. Total production costs year to date
have averaged $0.62/GJ.
•
Capital expenditure during the quarter was predominantly from one-off activities including
the South Erregulla drilling campaign, the South Erregulla testing program, the Ocean Hill 3D
seismic acquisition and preparation for Strike’s three upcoming exploration wells.
•
During the quarter Strike paid down $3.3 million of drawn debt from its existing Macquarie
Bank facilities. Drawn debt from this facility at the end of the quarter was $16.3 million.
•
Strike finished the quarter with a liquidity position of ~$91 million (~$45 million of cash, ~$47
million of committed, undrawn debt facilities and $0.16 million of listed equities), plus an
uncommitted $80 million contingent debt facility for Strike’s South Erregulla development 5.
•
During the quarter $239,621 in payments were made to related parties for director fees.
Uncommitted facility remains subject to lender credit approval.
