United Oil & Gas PLC shares fell Monday after it said it has lowered its full-year production guidance for the Abu Sennan license in Egypt, as the proportion of water to oil increased in one field.
Shares at 0714 GMT were down 0.48 pence, or 14%, at 2.85 pence.
The oil-and-gas company said it has lowered full-year guidance for the license to a range of 2,100-2,300 barrels of oil equivalent per day, from 2,500-2700 barrels.
The company said the ASH field–one of seven on the license–has had an increased proportion of water to oil being produced in its three wells. In particular, ASH-2’s proportion–or water cut–has increased faster than expected, leading to an associated drop in production.
United said its joint-venture partners have performed a number of operations to investigate options for stabilizing production, and that the other six fields on the license are entirely unaffected.

Advisors’ Opinion:
- [By Matthew DiLallo]
Marathon Oil (NYSE:MRO) based its 2019 plans on oil averaging $50 a barrel. At that price point, the company can fund its $2.6 billion capital spending plan — enough money to grow its U.S. oil production by 12% this year — and its dividend with plenty of room to spare. Marathon has so much breathing room that it can fund its 2019 budget as well as its dividend at $45 oil, which means it’s on track to produce a gusher of free cash now that oil is in the mid-$50s. Marathon currently expects to return the bulk of that money to shareholders through additional share repurchases, which sets up investors to potentially earn some high-octane total returns this year if oil keeps going higher.

In the meantime, investing in BP requires patience. It still has sizeable oil & gas assets, and as the world continues to get back to normal, things will only get better from here on in. With shares trading at 7.4 times forward price-to-earnings and the company offering a juicy dividend yield of 5.28%, this is one energy giant looking very attractive for a value investor.
