Strike raised $30m via a placement of 127,659,575 shares at $0.235, for Walyering, Haber, South Erregulla drilling and the Precinct land ($7.7m). Priced below the $0.30 April 2021 raising, so it dilutes existing holders. Trading resumes after a halt.
What it means for a shareholder
128m new shares at A$0.235 to raise about A$30.0m. That's 5.8% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 5.8% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (4,255 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.000207% to 0.000195% of the company. To keep it you'd need 264 more shares - about A$62 at the issue price.
Strike secured a $6m, 3-year Rabobank agricultural loan, secured over the property, to help buy the 3,500 ha Precinct land, with settlement due in September. It also began marketing the Precinct's renewable and carbon farm opportunities to developers.
Workover rig is mobilising to South Erregulla-1 to test the Wagina gas discovery from mid-September. SE2 and SE3 drilling is targeted Q2 2023, with long-lead items ordered. Molyneux will assess the 103m carbon storage reservoir, with joint studies with JX Nippon underway.
WE3's final test achieved a stabilised 83 mmscfd at 3,474 psi, limited by surface equipment. Pressure rebuilt to near original reservoir level after only 3 hours shut-in, indicating a large connected gas volume. This supports the July reserves upgrade for the north of the field.
Euroz Hartleys energy conference presentation; the text is mostly unreadable diagram labels (storage, reserves, production, LNG). No results or figures can be read. The 2 Sep placement announcement later cites it for use-of-proceeds detail.
Interim WE3 testing recorded a peak rate of 90 mmscfd at 3,010 psi on a 76/64 choke, with dry low-impurity gas and no sand or water. Final results await completion of testing and the pressure build-up.
Rig-up and swabbing finished at West Erregulla-3, with a planned 7-day production test starting today across 40m of Kingia perforations. A longer pressure build-up follows. This is the WE3 test expected in August; no results yet.
Strike and Talon sanctioned Walyering development at $14.4m gross ($7.9m Strike share), nine months after discovery. First gas sales are targeted Q1 2023, with Macquarie providing $10m to fund Strike's share. This resolves the open JV investment decision on Walyering.
Talon's release (header shows ASX: TPD) confirms the EP447 JV approved development of the Walyering gas project. Cost is $14.4m ($6.5m Talon's 45% share), with first gas sales targeted Q1 2023 and gas contracts expected Q4 2022. This repeats Strike's own announcement.
NSAI raised West Erregulla gross 2P reserves 41% to 422 PJ (211 PJ Strike direct) after WE3 results, from the earlier 300 PJ. Gross 2C is 30 PJ. Strike's direct and indirect interest is about 54%.

RISC certified Walyering's first reserves: gross 2P 54 PJ (30 PJ net to Strike's 55%) plus 0.55 mmbbls condensate, with 32 PJ 2C. Development is estimated at $14.2m for a 33 mmscf/d facility, with a JV investment decision to be sought.
Walyering-6's Cadda discovery flowed at up to 35 mmscfd, and the Cattamarra C and D sands contributed gas. The B sand produced water so is unsuitable for initial production. W6 will be completed for production; reserves estimate due within a week.
Walyering-6 flow test is about to start, now including the D-Sand alongside B and C, then a longer test of the Cadda gas discovery. A first independent reserves report for Walyering follows the roughly 10-day test.
West Erregulla-3 found 38m net pay in a 60m gas column in the Kingia, porosity averaging 13.8%, no gas-water contact. Reservoir is the best seen in the field. The High Cliff secondary target was poor. NSAI will review reserves.
West Erregulla-3 drilled through the Kingia Sandstone at 4,737m, with logging tools showing clean blocky sands and gas. It is at 4,806m and will drill on to the secondary objective before wireline logging.
Macquarie agreed an extra $20m facility: $10m committed, $10m uncommitted for Walyering development. The existing $13m drawn debt is extended to November 2023, with 20.7m options at 34c. Haber pre-FID funding is to be pursued at project level.
West Erregulla-3 has drilled through the over-pressured Carynginia Shale, reached 4,435m and cemented the 7-inch liner. Next it targets the Kingia and High Cliff sandstones.

Strike signed a binding deal to buy 3,500 ha of freehold land above South Erregulla and will move Project Haber there. It cites about A$85m lower capital cost by avoiding a 105km pipeline, plus up to 170MW of potential on-site renewables.
SE1 Kingia flowed a peak 80 mmscfd and a sustained 78 mmscfd over 5 hours, constrained by test equipment, with no sand or water and low-impurity gas. This supports South Erregulla as Haber's gas source; a Wagina test follows.
The Ensign 970 rig is on site and West Erregulla-3 re-entry starts 1 June, with about 45 days of work planned. The well was suspended earlier after hitting a significantly over-pressured zone; managed pressure drilling equipment has been added.
Flow testing gear is being set up at South Erregulla-1 for an 18-day Kingia test, starting within 72 hours. Core samples show permeability up to 604mD, supporting the earlier view of a high-quality reservoir.
Strike chose Koch Fertilizer as preferred bidder and signed a non-binding term sheet for 100% of Project Haber's 1.4 mtpa urea over 10-15 years. A binding agreement is still to be negotiated and depends on Haber's final investment decision.
Independent inferred geothermal resource for the Mid-West project: 203 PJe mid case (226 MWe over 30 years) over the 1,826 km² permit application area. The permit is still pending, and the resource is untested and undrilled.
Walyering-5 final test: comingled flow peaked at 75 mmscfd, the third highest rate in Perth Basin history, with A-Sand stabilised at 52 mmscfd. Strike is looking at lifting facility capacity to 35 mmscfd. Walyering-6 is drilling at 2,130m.
