1. Pentland is a medium size prospect, with recoverable reserves of 400 million barrels of oil (36 API) and 200 x 10standard cubic feet [scf] of gas. A conceptual design has been prepared, based on a template and a steel jacket, with pipelines of 30 miles and 50 miles required to export liquid and gaseous products to the nearest facilities offshore. It is estimated that this development will cost about $750 million, with an annual operating expenditure of $45 million. In addition, export tariffs of $0.60 per barrel and $0.40 per 10scf are expected. Provided that the economic climate does not cause a delay to the investment decision, fabrication could begin in 2005, with production expected in 2009. 1) Economic Assumptions Management is pessimistic about the oil market and has requested a conservative analysis. The following are to be assumed: Oil Price is $14 per barrel Gas Price is $2.50 per 10 scf 2) Project Capex (Millions dollars) Year 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2020 3) Oil and Gas Production Year 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Exp.& App Dev.
