Amadeus Basin Update

Posted on 7 March 2022

The Operator of the Mereenie, Palm Valley and Dingo fields, Central Petroleum Ltd (Central) (ASX: CTP) has advised that it has updated its share of reserves for Mereenie, Palm Valley and Dingo. The update incorporates drilling and production results from the recent new drill and well recompletion program on Mereenie, as well as recent well performance across the fields.

These new volumes are not adopted at this time given the relative size and the pending new information to be gained in all three of the fields:
