British North Sea-focused oil producer EnQuest on Thursday reported its highest free cashflow in 2021 of $397 million, almost double the previous year, thanks to higher oil prices.
EnQuest, with a market capitalization of $730 million, reduced its net debt by the end of last month to $1.1 billion and plans to spend $430 million on operations, $165 million on investments and $75 million on abandoning projects this year.
Out of its 2022 output forecast of 44,000-51,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, it has hedged 8.6 million barrels at average floor and ceiling prices of $63 and $78 a barrel.
For next year, it has hedged 3.5 million barrels at average floor and ceiling prices of $57 and $77 a barrel, said Jonathan Swinney, EnQuest's Chief Financial Officer who is moving to rival Tullow Oil TLW.L.
