Highlights

  • ADX reported average net Austrian production of 242 barrels of oil equivalent per day for the September quarter.
  • HOCH-1 delivered a 12-hour commingled gas test averaging 3.15 million cubic feet per day across four zones.
  • Empyrean agreed to earn a 10% economic interest in the GOLD cluster by funding 20% of GOLD-1 costs.
  • A November rights issue sought up to AUD 5.2 million to support the company’s activities.

Gas appraisal and higher production formed two strands of ADX Energy Limited (ASX:ADX)’s Austrian programme in 2026. Its September quarter combined producing-field improvement with HOCH-1 testing, while a GOLD cluster Investment agreement and a proposed entitlement raising added a financing dimension to near-term exploration.

Production Work Anchors the Austrian Portfolio

Average net production reached 242 barrels of oil equivalent per day in the September quarter, up 23% on the prior quarter’s 197. Vienna Basin work included new perforations in GA-10A and GA-93, with further well interventions scheduled after quarter end. The company reported AUD 3.13 million in sales and other cash receipts for the period. Its Anshof-3 and Anshof-2A wells also contributed oil sales, linking the broader exploration programme to existing production infrastructure.

HOCH-1 Testing Defines Another Gas Opportunity

In Upper Austria, HOCH-1’s initial testing across four zones averaged 3.15 million standard cubic feet of gas per day over a 12-hour commingled test. That is a flow-test result, not an established commercial production rate. ADX outlined additional testing intended to evaluate a deeper gas-bearing zone, with the next phase expected to help determine development options. Geological and seismic interpretation also continued across the surrounding licence portfolio.

GOLD Funding Advances Drill Preparation

Empyrean Energy entered an arrangement to earn a 10% economic interest in the GOLD cluster by contributing 20% of GOLD-1 drilling and testing costs. The company subsequently reported an executed energy investment agreement on 2 November. Preparations for GOLD-1 were being advanced alongside the planned PERG-1 near-field oil well. A separate renounceable rights issue announced on 2 November targeted up to AUD 5.2 million; an announced raising is distinct from funds already received.

Outlook: Next Milestones

ADX plans further Austrian well interventions, HOCH-1 testing and preparation for GOLD-1 and PERG-1. Timing and expenditure depend on the relevant funding, permits and field activities.
