Announcements, explained

Each one in plain English, with the numbers worked through for a shareholder.

24 Dec 2014capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor

Rey will raise $4M through a placement of up to 50M shares at 8c, below the 10c and 10.3c of the 2014 placements. Funds go to the Dunnart-2 test, two more EP437 wells, two Fitzroy wells and working capital.

What it means for a shareholder

50.0m new shares at A$0.080 to raise about A$4.0m. That's 7.0% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 7.0% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (12,500 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00188% to 0.00175% of the company. To keep it you'd need 942 more shares - about A$75 at the issue price.

1 Dec 2014joint venture update▼ Bad

Oil Basins says Backreef does not presently hold a 50% beneficial interest in the Derby Block and calls Rey's deal highly conditional. A tribunal decision is expected by 27 January 2015. This disputes the basis of Rey's 28 November acquisition.

28 Nov 2014asset acquisition disposition● NeutralMajor

Rey agreed to acquire Backreef's 50% of the roughly 5,000 km2 Derby Block (EP487), Canning Basin, for $2M on production licence grant or a 2% royalty. It is conditional on a tribunal ruling over title, termination of other sale agreements and FIRB approval. Co-owner Oil Basins disputes it.

Key, as operator, says Dunnart-2 logs show at least 5 m of good reservoir sand likely oil-bearing, with drilling fluid invasion mixing the samples. The joint venture agreed in principle to production test it, subject to budget and approvals, and is weighing up to three more prospects.

27 Aug 2014drilling result▲ Good

Preliminary logs suggest reservoir-quality sand at the top of the Bookara, and approval was received to suspend Dunnart-2 with 7-inch casing. The joint venture will decide whether production testing is warranted. No more daily reports will be issued.

26 Aug 2014drilling progress report● Neutral

Wireline logs were run and are being interpreted, with results from the formation tester still to be integrated. Key has applied to suspend the well with 7-inch casing for possible later production testing. No conclusion on pay yet.

25 Aug 2014well test result● NeutralMajor

The second drill stem test over 13 m failed mechanically, so it was invalid, though the tool held sandstone fluorescing like live oil. Dunnart-2 then reached 670 m total depth with further oil shows. Wireline logging is next.

22 Aug 2014drilling progress report▲ Good

After cleaning the hole, Dunnart-2 drilled 11 m more of Bookara Sandstone to 627 m, finding further fluorescence and oil shows. A second drill stem test over 614-627 m is being prepared.

21 Aug 2014well test result▼ Bad

The first drill stem test tools were completely plugged with shale fill, so the test was invalid. It says nothing about the oil zone itself. The joint venture will re-test or drill deeper and test again.

21 Aug 2014drilling progress report● Neutral

The first drill stem test over 614-616.87 m may have misrun or plugged, as fill was noted in the hole. The joint venture is weighing a re-run or drilling deeper first. No flow result yet.

Dunnart-2 hit the Bookara Sandstone at 614 m and found live light oil (preliminary 34° API) in the first 2.87 m drilled. Rey (43.47%) now awaits a drill stem test to confirm the oil is recoverable. This is the first oil sign from the well.

Dunnart-2 drilled to 612 m, with two gas shows about ten times background in the Kockatea Shale (Arranoo Sandstone) at roughly 529-531 m. The Bookara Sandstone target is predicted at 616 m, so the main result is close.

Dunnart-2 has drilled to 496 m and met an encouraging wet gas show at 460-475 m in coal, several times higher than at Dunnart-1. That interval is not reservoir rock. The Bookara target at about 617 m is next, then a drill stem test.

4 Aug 2014drilling progress report● Neutral

Dunnart-2 is still at 294 m while rig maintenance is finished before the blowout preventer is fitted. The fixed-price drilling contract means the joint venture incurs no cost while waiting. The 8.5-inch section to the Bookara is expected to take two to three days.
