Full Summary

Brookside Energy Ltd (ASX: BRK) has announced its strategic focus and growth initiatives for 2025. Building on the success of its 2024 operations, the company is poised for significant growth and value creation in the coming year. The company's strategic initiatives include efforts to expand its inventory of low-cost, high-margin undeveloped drilling locations in the SWISH Play and the broader Anadarko Basin, as well as a targeted drilling program with three new 10,000-foot lateral horizontal wells planned for 2025. The first well is set to spud in the first quarter, with the remaining two wells planned for the third quarter. The company expects net production in 2025 to double compared to pre-FMDP levels and grow by 30% to 40% over the 2024 annual average, driven by the success of the FMDP development and contributions from the 2025 drilling program. The projected net capital expenditure (CAPEX) for 2025 is US$18.3 million (A$28.7 million), encompassing drilling, completion, and land costs. EBITDA for 2025 is projected at US$18.0 million (A$28.0 million), based on pricing of WTI crude oil at US$75.00 per barrel and natural gas at US$2.50 per thousand cubic feet.
