First gas production in February CY23 from the Vali field in the Cooper  Basin was  a significant milestone for Metgasco and achieved our goal of pivoting from being an explorer to becoming a gas producer and delivering Metgasco’s maiden revenue. The nearby Odin gas field is anticipated to start production via the Vali facilities  in Q3 CY23 . In 2023 Metgasco and its partners will deliver two new gas sources to the undersupplied East Coast Gas market. \nThis presentation describes the key sub-surface and commercial catalysts which delivered  a staged process of value creation by Metgasco\, from the initial gazettal application in 2016 for the ATP2021 permit \, technical appraisal\, farm-out (ATP2021) and farm-in (PRL211)  deals and\, with our partners\, delivering 100% success from four exploration and appraisal drilling program during CY20 & CY21. The presentation will provide an overview of  how the joint venture unlocked the gas productivity from the low permeability Permian (Patchawarra) reservoir in Vali-1  which helped  the decision to proceed with the Vali field commercialisation\,  delivering discovery to revenue generation in approximately three years. \nAbout the Speaker – Ken Aitken\nKen holds a BSc in Mechanical Engineering from Heriot-Watt University and has over 35 years of international and domestic experience in onshore and offshore oil and gas developments in technical\, leadership and executive roles.
