Leadership Insights
Dr. Sean Guest, the President and CEO of Valeura, expressed his satisfaction with the company's operational results. He noted that the strength of their performance is demonstrated through the extensive drilling at the Nong Yao field. Over the past three years in the Gulf of Thailand, Valeura has significantly increased shareholder value by engaging in infill drilling initiatives. The recent operations have helped to refine the existing reservoirs while also identifying new prospective targets for future exploration.
“The recent campaign is a testament to our world-class operational capabilities. Our new wells are reaching reservoirs that were thought too distant from our facilities just a short while ago,” Dr. Guest explained. He emphasized the importance of maintaining high health, safety, and environmental standards throughout the drilling processes.
Production Update
In Q3, Valeura's working interest share oil production averaged 23.0 mbbls/d, reflecting a 6.2% increase from Q2 2025. These figures are indicative of the company's efforts to resume normal operations across all assets after previously planned downtime. The effective implementation of the Nong Yao drilling campaign further enhanced production levels to approximately 24.8 mbbls/d by the end of the quarter.
The total oil sales in Q3 reached 2.16 million barrels, a noteworthy rise of 8.7% compared to the previous quarter. Additionally, Valeura completed the quarter with 0.88 million barrels of oil inventory on hand, ready for sale.
Nong Yao Drilling Campaign
During the quarter, Valeura successfully executed a ten-well drilling campaign at the Nong Yao field. This endeavor was pivotal in elevating the company's oil production rates. The company witnessed a remarkable shift in production from about 7,996 bbls/d before the new wells to about 11,562 bbls/d by the end of the seven-day period concluding on September 30, 2025. The team is optimistic that the new reservoirs discovered will enhance the overall production capabilities of the field.
The campaign involved drilling three horizontal development wells from the Nong Yao A wellhead platform, all of which were successful and are now producing oil. The drilling techniques applied maximized exposure to the oil-bearing intervals by carefully navigating through the geological complexities.
Additional development wells drilled from the Nong Yao B and C platforms further affirmed the water's potential. Despite some challenges, results aligned with initial expectations, contributing to increasing oil production from existing facilities.
Operational Sustainability and Future Plans
Valeura remains committed to maintaining safe production levels across its four fields in the Gulf of Thailand, with a focus on health and safety. The Wassana redevelopment project is progressing as planned, with new facilities anticipated to greatly increase production efficiency and reduce unit costs.
Recently, Valeura has also successfully acquired vital seismic data for blocks G1/65 and G3/65, marking significant progress toward future exploration and development plans. With gas accumulations already identified, Valeura is excited about the prospects of moving forward with development projects in close proximity to vital infrastructure.
Conclusion
As Valeura Energy Inc. prepares to release its full unaudited results, anticipation builds around the growth trajectory and steady advancements made throughout Q3 2025.
