Afentra Targets Step-Change in Output as Angolan Redevelopment and Resource Base Expand

Afentra ( (GB:AET) ) has issued an announcement.

Afentra reported net average production of 6,324 barrels of oil per day in 2025, generating $114.4 million of revenue from 1.63 million barrels sold, while maintaining operating costs at around $23 per barrel and ending the year with net debt of $21.8 million. The company advanced a multi-year redevelopment programme on Angola’s Block 3/05 and 3/05A, completed extensive light well interventions, and prepared for a 2026–27 infill drilling and heavy workover campaign that could materially increase production and reserves. Independent assessments showed a more than fourfold rise in 2C contingent resources to about 87.3 mmboe and confirmed 2P reserves of 106.3 mmbo gross, underlining the scale of the remaining potential in the Angolan portfolio. Portfolio expansion continued with Afentra’s first operatorship at Block 3/24 with a 40% stake, progress on the acquisition of additional interests from Etu Energias, advancement of onshore Kwanza basin licences, and exit from the Somaliland Odewayne block. Financially, Afentra is seeking to extend its reserve-based lending facility and is evaluating funding options for its upcoming drilling and workover programmes, while an employee share purchase initiative is being used to fund future incentives without diluting shareholders, positioning 2026 as a pivotal year for step-change growth in production and reserves.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:AET) stock is a Buy with a £54.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Afentra stock, see the GB:AET Stock Forecast page.
