This latest reserves assessment has been certified by Dr Bruce McConachie of SRK Consulting (Australasia).
Tlou managing director Tony Gilby said: “This significant upgrade in Reserves reinforces the commerciality of the Lesedi Gas Project. The success of the Selemo pilot in producing sustained gas flows for a substantial period suggests that there is significant gas production potential for the area.
“Our ongoing work to assess this continues in tandem with our planning for the staged delivery of a commercial CBM power facility, for which we have received a detailed request for proposal from the Government of Botswana.
“We are very pleased to have received the first gas reserves in the Mamba Project area, which demonstrates the upside available within our portfolio.
