Genel Energy Stresses Resilient Core and Diversification Push in 2025 Update

Genel Energy ( (GB:GENL) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Genel Energy reported that its core business remained resilient in 2025 despite all crude being sold into the discounted Kurdistan domestic market at about $32 per barrel, with working interest production averaging 17,520 bopd, free cash flow of $4 million and net cash broadly stable at $134 million. Operationally, the Tawke field delivered robust output supported by workovers and well interventions, and a new drilling campaign is being mobilised to boost both production and reserves, while developments in a new Kurdistan export arrangement, if sustained, could ultimately allow the company to access higher international pricing. In Oman, preliminary work on Block 54’s Batha West-1 well was completed ahead of time and under budget, with analysis now guiding a two-well exploration and 3D seismic programme over the next two years, and in Somaliland Genel is advancing towards drilling the potentially transformational Toosan‑1 prospect. Management reaffirmed its strategic focus on geographic diversification of cash generation, pursuing new asset acquisitions and recovering overdue receivables from the Kurdistan Regional Government, with 2026 priorities including restarting Tawke exports, funding up to $20 million of pre‑production investment and progressing key exploration programmes, all aimed at underpinning a future dividend‑supportive, diversified cash flow profile.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:GENL) stock is a Hold with a £66.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Genel Energy stock, see the GB:GENL Stock Forecast page.
