Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
HOEC has temporarily suspended production from its Block B-80 offshore field after de-mooring the Floating Storage Offshore (FSO) unit from the Single Point Mooring due to adverse monsoon weather conditions. The FSO has been anchored at a secure location for over a week, and the company is ready to re-moor and resume production as soon as weather improves. Wells have been secured with diesel and chemicals, and the export flowline has been flushed with water. The company has stated that expected losses are minimal and described the disruption as a normal occurrence for offshore oil and gas operations during the monsoon season. The exchange will be informed when production resumes.
Short-term production halt from Block B-80, but the company expects minimal financial loss and characterises the disruption as routine monsoon-related activity. Likely a minor negative sentiment in the near term, with no material impact on guidance expected.
