PRODUCTION
Total net production for the 2011 financial year was 267,367 barrels of oil equivalent, representing a 70% increase on FY2010 production figures. Oil production in Q3 and Q4 dropped off sharply as a result of the sale of the Spearfish asset and severe flooding in the Company's Bakken acreage. Adverse weather in Queensland impacted production from the trial production wells in the Mungi/Harcourt area.
