Tullow Oil Company Profile 2020 - Reserve Replenishment Uncertainty Beyond FY2022 Makes Temporal Seniority Key - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Tullow Oil: Reserve Replenishment Uncertainty Beyond FY2022 Makes Temporal Seniority Key" company profile has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Why Read?

• Understand Tullow Oil's reserve and production trajectory and why this makes temporal seniority particularly important, favouring the $ 21s especially following the announced sale of Tullow's Uganda assets
• Understand why Tullow is unlikely to restructure until at least FY 2022
• Understand how sensitive FY 2022 liquidity is to the realised Brent crude price
• Understand what shocks to the Brent forward curve and the reserve / production trajectory are needed to generate a high enough valuation for Tullow to cover also the $22s and $25s and generate material upside for the equity
• Understand how much Tullow's stake in Blocks 10 BA, 10 BB and 13T in the South Lokichar Basin in Kenya could be worth

What's New?

• Detailed liquidity analysis and projections - RBL commitment amortisation and capacity re-determination, including potential for re-sizing; sensitivity to Brent prices; asset sale potential
• Financial projections, valuation (DCF and peer multiples) and sensitivities

Questions Answered

• What would it take to break liquidity by maturity of the $ 21s and why is this unlikely?
• What would it take to ensure sufficient liquidity for Tullow to trade through FY 2022 and beyond the maturity of the $22s?
• Is there a case for owning the $22s regardless of FY 2022 liquidity sensitivity, whether as a call option on oil prices or as a call option on Tullow's Kenya assets or as a call option on Tullow's reserve replenishment beyond FY 2022 with the fallback of a potential (Publisher assumption) exchange offer with part cash repayment and part debt extension (potentially with some provision for enhanced capital structure / group structure positioning for consenting holders, whilst respecting Tullow's indebtedness and lien covenants)?
• Are press reports suggesting valuations for Tullow's stake in its Kenya assets of $625m to $1,000m credible?
• How concerned are we about post plateau reserve and production declines at Tullow's operated fields in Ghana (Jubilee and TEN) and what are the prospects for reserve replenishment?
• How does the RBL Facility work - commitment amortisation, capacity re-determination and prospects for renewal of the facility at or before its maturity in Nov-24?
• Could Tullow avoid a restructuring altogether and navigate its way through its final debt maturity in 2025?
