Victoria Oil & Gas ‘quieter’ quarter shows significant growth
Jamie Ashcroft
08:39 05 Nov 2015

Whilst down from the preceding three months, VOG’s third quarter gas production was double the figure for 2014.



Victoria Oil & Gas (LON:VOG) chairman Kevin Foo has highlighted significant production growth in what is typically the group’s quieter quarter.

Results for the third quarter, which hosts Cameroon’s ‘wet season’, saw average gas production of 8.2mln cubic feet per day which is more than double the figure for the same period of 2014.

Compared to the preceding quarter, meanwhile, production was down from 12.6mln cubic feet per day.

“The next quarter will see the tailing off of the wet season in terms of production and expected increased production," Foo said in a stock market statement.

VOG told investors it generated US$8.1mln of cash from gas and condensate sales during the three month period, compared to US$9.8mln in the second quarter. A total of 2.2bn cubic feet of gas was sold in the first nine months of the year, it added, up from 893mln in the same period of 2014.

It ended the quarter with US$12.8mln of cash, and said it had repaid US$2.4mln of debt in the period.

Ahmet Dik, the recently appointed chief executive of Cameroon operating subsidiary Gaz du Cameroun (GDC) described it as a “hugely exciting time” for the company as it takes advantage of its first mover advantage to deliver more gas to what he calls Cameroon’s “energy hungry market place”.

"The next phase of GDC's expansion involves us being able to supply significantly more gas to major customers,” he said.

“In order to facilitate this major production expansion strategy, 2016 will see us laying new pipelines to large customers, drilling two wells, increasing plant capacity and carefully selecting the best long term markets for us to sell our gas into.”

Victoria Oil & Gas (LON:VOG) – Buy

Yesterday, Victoria Oil & Gas (VOG) released a production update for the third quarter ended 30th September 2015. The average gas production increased to 8.2 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscf/d) in Q3 2015 from 4.0mmscf/d in Q3 2014.

The company sold 2,242mmscf of gas in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to 893mmscf in the same period last year. While, the condensate sold rose to 10,878bbls in Q3 2015 against 5,667bbls in Q3 2014. VOG received US$8.1m (Q2 2015: US$9.8m) in cash for the sale of gas and condensate.

The cash balance at the end of period stood at US$12.8m (Q2 2015: US$14.2m). Additionally, the company reported a US$2.4m decrease in debt during the period. VOG has started well engineering for two wells planned for H2 2016. The company has initiated a new seismic programme concentrating on acquisition and reprocessing of historic data points.

Our view: VOG delivered solid performance in the third quarter with improved production and higher sales. The company’s production numbers were benefitted by ENEO surpassing its take-or-pay level for the period by 32%.

VOG continued development at the Logbaba gas production plant, which it brought in Q2 2015.

The company has commenced the expansion plan at Logbaba gas to double the capacity to around 40mmscf/d. Additionally, VOG’s operating subsidiary GDC, analysed the plan for potential pipeline extension into the Bonaberi area and customer connections. Going forward, the company plans to increase its plant capacity, drill two wells and placing new pipelines.

We expect VOG to improve its gas supply to new and existing markets and subsequently increase reserves and production capacity. In light of the above argument, we maintain a Buy rating on the stock.

Change of Accounting Reference Date

Victoria Oil & Gas Plc announces that it has changed its accounting reference date from 31 May to 31 December.

As a result of this change, the Company's reporting calendar will be as follows:

· Unaudited interim accounts for the six month period from 1 June 2015 to 30 November 2015, to be announced by the end of February 2016; and

· Audited annual accounts for a shorter seven month period from 31 May to 31 December 2015 to be announced by the end of May 2016.


Thereafter, interim and annual reports will be published each year for the six months to 30 June and 12 months to 31 December in accordance with the AIM Rules.

The Board considers that the change of the accounting reference date will align VOG's reporting timetable with its operating subsidiary Gaz du Cameroun S.A. ("GDC"), and better reflect the seasonal nature of GDC's gas sales profile.

The Board does not foresee any material financial implications on the Group as a result of the change in accounting reference date of the Company, nor is there any other matter of significance that needs to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company in this regard.

Great Britain wants to conquer the Central African market from Cameroon
Saturday, 12 December 2015

(Business in Cameroon) - With average trade exchanges of FCfa 104 billion per year between 2010 and 2014, according to statistics from the ministry of Economy, Cameroon and Great Britain do not exploit enough the potential of their trade relations. This is what came out of the prospecting mission undertaken by 24 British investors and concluded on 10 December 2015 in Yaoundé, the Cameroonian capital.

The main objective of this business trip in which took part companies operating in sectors such as hydrocarbons, agriculture, education, etc., was to find and act on investment and partnership opportunities in Cameroon. But, as specified by the British High Commissioner, Brian Olley, Cameroon is not the only target of the British economic operators.

Indeed, the British diplomat revealed at the end of a meeting at the ministry of Economy, together with the delegation of investors, "with political stability, a good growth rate, a dynamic population and optimist prospects", Cameroon could be a launch pad for British investors who wish to conquer the sub-regional market.

Thanks to its strategic location in Central Africa, the deputy minister of Economy,Yaouba Abdoulaye, Cameroon is the entry point to a market of 150 million consumers gathered within the Cemac and Ceeac. By integrating Nigeria who shares a 1500 km long with Cameroon to this market, it is a market of approximately 300 million consumers the British investors could have access to, from Cameroon.

A revisit to the Diageo (Guinness Brand) article from 2013 highlighting the importance companies place on environmental issues within Cameroon:

Greener energy, still great Guinness
August 2013

When gas wells were drilled near our Guinness brewery in Douala, Cameroon, we joined forces with the gas company to bring our carbon emissions – and costs – down.

Since February 2013, the steam boilers that play such a crucial role in brewing Guinness at Douala have been fuelled by natural gas following a six-month, £800,000 conversion project and a great partnership with our gas provider. Natural gas provides consistent energy while emitting significantly less CO2 than heavy fuel oil: in Douala we project that the switch from oil to gas, combined with efficiency improvements such as better insulation and heat recovery, will result in a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions.



The project began in 2012, when Guinness Cameroon agreed a contract with Rodeo Development Ltd to buy natural gas piped directly from their two new gas wells at Logbaba, Cameroon. By installing dual fuel burners, we were able to ensure that we could benefit from this new supply while retaining the flexibility and security we need to keep brewing great beer.

Baker Magunda, Managing Director of Guinness Cameroon, said: 'This new gas equipment will secure for our plant a constant and consistent energy supply, enabling us to achieve our business ambitions in a more efficient and sustainable manner.'

The project at Douala is one of dozens of energy initiatives undertaken in 2013 to help us meet our target of halving greenhouse gas emissions by 2015.

Cameroon: towards greater consumption of electricity to cope with low water
by APA published on: 12.17.2015

The company Energy of Cameroon (ENEO) Dealer electric utility, announced Thursday, a major national awareness campaign to the general public and civil society "in simple ways, quick and clean to reduce our consumption and therefore our electricity bills, "said its director general Joel Nana Kontchou.

An awareness campaign that occurs in a social context marked by the implementation of the low water level management plan and worried consumers whose load shedding as is usually the case in the dry season.

"We must share the power resource. It is in our and our future. The idea being mistress to share this common good electricity between all owners of the national community. If each of us consumes only what it absolutely needs, the rest could be shared with the entire community, "he said.

With an installed capacity of 1237 megawatts (MW), Cameroon has an energy mix which reserves 65-70 percent hydroelectricity, a "deemed energy cleaner and cheaper" but whose "side of the coin is that our system thus highly exposed to climate hazards and the unavailability of certain equipment for maintenance or failure of reasons, "does one insists ENEO.

Statistics show that the annual electricity demand is 7.5 percent and about 85,000 new customers per year, or a need for additional capacity of 800 MW to 1000 MW over the next five years.

To deal with low water, the CEO of ENEO said that additional capacity is expected from certain existing works, among others, related to 25 MW upgrade of Limbe thermal power plant, 12 MW of additional Oyomabang central Yaounde, 8 MW in other thermal power plants, not to mention a continuation of the activities of the emergency power plant 50MW gas Bassa / Logbaba.

For fifteen years, "the availability, quality and cost of supply of electricity were clearly indexed as a brake on the growth of our country, with an estimated 1 to 2 percent points loss rate annual growth, "said Mr. Nana Kontchou.

According to the World Bank's study 2/3 of Cameroonian companies cite energy as a constraint and evaluate about 5 percent of their production losses due to the instability of the electrical service.

A ENEO, it says "together we can make serious progress in facilitating sustainable economic development of our country" since energy saving is one of the dimensions of the 2016 low-water management plan.

Modern day Indiana Jones tackles mines on five continents
By Glenn Lawrence Posted on Dec 18, 2015

In his 40-year career Kevin Foo has done what others would consider impossible, dangerous and improbable: He develops mines in very remote locations—in constant search of the Holy Grails of mining.

Today, Foo is Executive Chairman of the Victoria Oil and Gas, which is a significant supplier of industrial natural gas to Douala, the main city of Cameroon in Central Africa. Having lived and worked on five continents, Foo has earned the title of Indiana Jones of the mining industry.

The dangers to miners themselves are well known: Gas explosions, underground rock collapses, chemical leaks, electrocution and fires. And Foo, as the manager, has had to deal with that from the C-Suite.

Mining in some difficult parts of world brings significant challenges, and over his career, Foo has confronted most of them.

A metallurgical engineer by trade, Foo first began exploring extreme mining opportunities in 1990. It began in Kazakhstan when it was still a state in the Soviet Union and over the arc of his interest period the Soviet Empire collapsed.

Economic sectors carriers in Cameroon

The ambition of the President of the Republic Paul Biya that Cameroon become an emerging state by 2035. While significant efforts are needed to achieve this before the assets on which the country can count are many, and some particularly promising economic sectors. Inventory of the situation halfway through the period covered by the current ECSD.

and a mention:

The revival of oil companies

One finds in Cameroon the rise of a new generation of oil companies, ready to take over from industry giants that the downward trend of production diverts aging fields. The place left by the majors such as Total and Shell does not remain vacant: it forms an air call in which slip juniors, such as Anglo-French Perenco (which bought total assets), EurOil (Cameroon subsidiary the Bowleven) British, Chinese Addax Petroleum (Pecten buyer) or Anglo-Swiss Glencore. Other signs still arise: Petronas (Malaysia), Yang Chang (China), Noble Energy (USA), Rodeo Development Ltd (Victoria Oil & Gas Plc, UK) ... not to mention SNH, the national Cameroonian company, that the oil field operator Mvia acts.
