Jeffrey Robertson's questions to VAALCO Energy Inc (EGY) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
In a follow-up question, Jeffrey Robertson of Water Tower Research LLC asked about the timeline to restore production in Cote D'Ivoire once the FPSO returns and whether the refurbishment would increase the vessel's production capacity.
Answer
COO Thor Pruckl explained that after the FPSO returns, it will likely take two to three weeks to ramp up to stable production. He clarified that the refurbishment was focused on restoring existing equipment and was not designed to change the vessel's overall capacity, which is already well above the field's production capability.
