Amplitude Energy’s Elanora Well Disappoints as Focus Shifts to Isabella Prospect

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

The latest update is out from Amplitude Energy ( (AU:AEL) ).

Amplitude Energy has reported that its Elanora‑1 exploration well in the offshore Otway Basin reached total depth safely and ahead of schedule, but logging data showed no elevated gas readings in the primary Waarre A reservoir, which is interpreted as water‑bearing. The well will now be plugged, and the company will proceed with a planned sidetrack into the nearby Isabella prospect, which targets a different reservoir and remains central to its East Coast Supply Project.

Management said the disappointing Elanora outcome does not alter its assessment of the prospectivity of Waarre C sands targets such as Isabella, Juliet and Nestor. A successful Isabella sidetrack would be logged, flow‑tested and completed with subsea infrastructure for future development into the regional gas supply project, underscoring Amplitude’s continued push to secure new domestic gas volumes despite the Elanora setback.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:AEL) stock is a Hold with a A$3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Amplitude Energy stock, see the AU:AEL Stock Forecast page.
