Given some level of early commercial success, it is anticipated that the program will last for at least 3-5 years and will be one of the cornerstones of the company's US exploration and development program for the medium term future.
Amadeus added that at current gas prices in the US, the Gerdes and the Scheinemann South wells will add between $US1.2-1.8 million to the company’s bottom-line on an annualised basis.
