The start to the 2022 financial year was positive. As expected, production from the Knight wells increased significantly in the course of the first quarter. In March, the Company was already producing approximately 3,500 barrels of oil per day (BOPD). So far in April, daily production has increased to around 4,500 BOPD. The highest production is still expected in May/June. The detailed quarterly report for the first quarter of 2022 will be released in the coming days. Daily production for 2022 is expected to be around 9,300-10,000 BOE, about half of which will be oil.

The capital expenditure budget as part of the forecast for drilling in Utah and Wyoming is EUR 58 million for 2022 and EUR 50 million for 2023. Cub Creek plans to start a drilling program in Wyoming in the second half of 2022 with five wells (80% share) and an investment volume of about USD 40 million. Salt Creek continues to expect the start of production from the first wells under the collaboration with Oxy in the fourth quarter of 2022. Salt Creek will invest a total of approximately USD 65 million in 18 wells. Additional interests in drilling by subsidiaries, particularly Bright Rock in Utah, account for about USD 15 million of investments.

In April, Deutsche Rohstoff USA received the long-awaited tax refund for the fiscal year 2019. With interest, this amounts to around USD 7.6 million.
