The South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”)

 

The Company owns offshore production licenses called the South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”). The Company owns a 49% working interest in SASB in partnership with TPAO. SASB has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The four SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea.

 

Management assesses each field for impairment indicators at each reporting date. Impairment indicators considered include the following:

 

Plans to discontinue or dispose of the asset before the previously expected date;
Significant reductions in estimates or reserves;
Significant cost overrun on a capital project;
Significant increases in the expected cost of dismantling assets and restoring the site; and
Production difficulties.

As at December 31, 2023, the Company performed an assessment of potential impairment indicators and noted that the Company’s net asset value was greater than its market capitalization. As a result of the impairment indicator noted, the Company performed an impairment test in accordance with IFRS using fair value less cost to sell. For the purposes of testing impairment and determining fair value less cost to sell, the Company used a 30 year forecast of net cash flows obtained from the annual reserve report discounted at 10% and 20% to estimate the fair value of the oil and gas properties. The resulting recoverable amount exceeded the book values of the oil and gas properties and as such, no impairment charge was recognized as at December 31, 2023. As at December 31, 2023, the depletion calculation includes future development costs of $35,144,000 (2022 - $49,960,000) based on the most recent reserve report.
