The latest update is out from Central Petroleum Limited ( (AU:CTP) ).
Central Petroleum has completed the acquisition of interests in conventional exploration permits in the onshore Otway and Cooper basins from ADZ Energy, securing a 20% stake in Victoria’s PEP 169 and a 49% interest in multiple petroleum retention licences and an exploration licence in South Australia, with ADZ remaining as operator. The partners plan a multi-well exploration program over the next 18 months, starting with the Enterprise North well in PEP 169 in the second half of 2026, targeting high-permeability natural gas in the Waarre Formation close to existing pipelines and processing plants; if successful, the well is designed to transition quickly to production and could underpin both early gas sales into the Victorian market and longer-term gas storage opportunities, strengthening Central’s growth pipeline and exposure to premium domestic gas pricing.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:CTP) stock is a Hold with a A$0.07 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Central Petroleum Limited stock, see the AU:CTP Stock Forecast page.
