Outlook and guidance
No new wells planned in 2026; operating priorities are facility maintenance, well workovers and small-scale stimulation to limit production decline and improve performance.
Processing plant maintenance shutdown began August 1, 2026, and is expected to last ~50 days; gas production is expected to be affected.
Higher GBIP prices following early-2026 market disruptions are expected to flow into future royalty receipts because payments lag current German gas prices.
