Stars
Magnus Field Infill Drilling
Magnus hit a five-year peak in mid-2025, averaging ~19,000 bbl/d after the 2025 infill program and contributing materially to EnQuest’s UK production and cash flow.
As a portfolio cornerstone, Magnus posts high uptime and low operating costs per barrel thanks to subsea and reservoir management, lifting margin and recovery rates.
EnQuest is prepping a 2026 drilling campaign to sustain growth; Magnus remains a capital-intensive growth engine that returns large oil volumes and strong near-term free cash flow.
Seligi 1b Gas Expansion
Seligi 1b Gas Expansion: first gas achieved December 2025, nine months early, marking it as a Star with strong growth potential.
Expected to reach full capacity of 6,000 boe/d by January 2026, directly easing Peninsular Malaysia’s supply squeeze amid 2025 gas demand growth of ~3–4%.
Project shifts EnQuest toward lower-cost, high-growth Southeast Asian gas, with capital intensity ~US$30k/boe/d and prioritized reinvestment to capture regional market share.
Vietnam Block 12W Operations
Following EnQuest’s July 2025 acquisition of Harbour Energy assets, Chim Sáo and Dua in Vietnam Block 12W became Stars, with proactive late-2025 well investments lifting net production to 5,600 boe/d, 18% above initial forecasts.
These fields deliver high-value crude trading at a premium to Brent (roughly +$3–$5/bbl in H2 2025), supporting stronger cash margins and justifying further capital to unlock discovered resources.
They add geographic diversification to EnQuest’s UK-heavy portfolio and let the group apply late-life management expertise to squeeze growth from these relatively new international assets.
PM8/Seligi Oil Restoration
EnQuest’s PM8/Seligi unit remains a high-growth leader in Malaysia after applying idle well restoration and horizontal drilling; 2025 2P reserves rose by 18% to 42.6 MMboe, supporting production of ~28 kbpd in H2 2025.
The asset won Malaysia Upstream Operator of the Year for a second straight year in 2025, underscoring dominant operations and cost-efficient lifting at ~$12/boe.
Ongoing investment in well workovers and H2 drilling programs—capex ~USD 45m in 2025—is required to offset natural decline and sustain growth.
PM8/Seligi is the blueprint for EnQuest’s Southeast Asia expansion, informing target selection, restoration playbooks, and JV negotiations.
- 2025 2P +18% → 42.6 MMboe
- Avg production ~28 kbpd (H2 2025)
- Unit capex ~USD 45m (2025)
- Lifting cost ≈ USD 12/boe
- Award: Malaysia Upstream Operator of the Year (2024, 2025)
Sarawak DEWA PSC Development
The DEWA PSC in Sarawak is a rising Star for EnQuest, with first-phase potential up to 100 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd). Awarded late 2024, technical and commercial maturation progressed through 2025 targeting material production by 2028–2030 and capturing Malaysia’s fast-growing gas demand from industry and data centers.
- Awarded: late 2024
- Potential: 100 MMscfd first phase
- Key timing: maturation in 2025; production aim 2028–2030
- Market: Malaysian industrial & data-center gas growth
- Capex: upfront capital required; path to regional market leadership
High-growth assets Magnus, PM8/Seligi, Seligi1b, Chim Sáo/Dua & DEWA power 2025–26 cash flow
Stars: Magnus, PM8/Seligi, Seligi 1b, Chim Sáo/Dua and DEWA are high-growth, high-share assets driving 2025–26 cash flow and reserves (2025 facts: Magnus ~19,000 bbl/d; PM8/Seligi 42.6 MMboe 2P, ~28 kbpd H2; Seligi 1b 6,000 boe/d by Jan 2026; Chim Sáo/Dua 5,600 boe/d; DEWA potential 100 MMscfd).
| Asset | Key 2025–26 figures |
|---|---|
| Magnus | ~19,000 bbl/d |
| PM8/Seligi | 42.6 MMboe 2P; ~28 kbpd H2 |
| Seligi 1b | 6,000 boe/d (Jan 2026) |

Cash Cows
Kraken Field Production
The Kraken field remains EnQuest’s primary Cash Cow, delivering stable production with a 96% efficiency through 2025 and averaging ~35,000 boe/d year-to-date. In April 2025 a 70% cut in FPSO lease rate boosted annual cash flow by about $80m, lowering unit lease cost by roughly $2.40/boe. Mature growth has slowed, but low operating cost near $12/boe keeps Kraken a vital liquidity source funding debt service and SEA projects.
Golden Eagle Asset
Golden Eagle Asset delivers high-margin production with asset efficiency above 92% as of late 2025 and generated roughly $220m EBITDA in FY2024, making it a steady cash source for EnQuest’s UK portfolio.
Recent drilling fell short of original targets, yet output remains resilient and requires minimal new capital versus the group’s Stars, so the non-operated field can be milked to fund dividends and debt reduction.
Sullom Voe Terminal Operations
As operator of the Sullom Voe Terminal, EnQuest earns stable, fee-based income—the terminal handled ~26 million tonnes of oil and gas liquids in 2025, underpinning midstream cash flow.
Right-sizing and stabilization projects completed in late 2025 cut operating costs by ~12% and reduced CO2 emissions by ~18%, improving efficiency and the carbon profile.
With a dominant export position for West of Shetland and Northern North Sea volumes, the terminal faces low growth but delivers consistent, low-risk cash generation supporting group stability.
UK Tax Loss Asset
EnQuest holds about $2.0 billion of UK tax loss carryforwards (2025 filings), which materially reduce cash taxes and lets it keep more cash from UK production versus peers facing the Energy Profits Levy.
By consolidating North Sea assets, EnQuest monetises these losses—turning tax shields into recurring cash flow without operational capex; it’s a mature, high-value cash cow on the balance sheet.
- ~$2.0bn UK tax losses (2025)
- Reduces cash tax outflow vs peers
- Offsets Energy Profits Levy impact
- No ongoing capex to maintain
- Generates fiscal cash through consolidation
PM8/Seligi Base Production
PM8/Seligi base oil production is a mature Cash Cow, optimized over a decade of EnQuest operatorship and delivering predictable free cash flow; in 2024 it averaged ~8,500 bbl/d net to EnQuest, supporting margins near 30% before tax.
Malaysia PSC terms (cost recovery and profit oil split) act as a natural hedge vs oil swings, so routine maintenance and targeted well interventions suffice to sustain output and cash.
Cash from PM8/Seligi underpinned EnQuest’s 2024 capex of ~USD 120m, funding higher-risk gas and exploration campaigns in Indonesia and Brunei.
- Stable ~8,500 bbl/d net (2024)
- ~30% operating margin (2024)
- Low opex: routine maintenance + well workovers
- Funds ~USD 120m capex in 2024
EnQuest’s cash cows: 43.5k boe/d, ~$540m EBITDA, $2bn tax losses fuel FCF
Kraken, Golden Eagle, PM8/Seligi and Sullom Voe form EnQuest’s Cash Cows, producing ~43,500 boe/d net (YTD 2025), generating ~USD 540m EBITDA (FY2024 pro-rata), with operating costs ~$12/boe (Kraken) and ~30% margin (PM8). UK tax losses ~$2.0bn cut cash taxes, boosting free cash flow for debt and capex.
| Asset | Net prod | EBITDA | Opex |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kraken | 35,000 boe/d | — | $12/boe |
| Golden Eagle | — | $220m (2024) | — |
| PM8/Seligi | 8,500 bbl/d | — | ~30% margin |
