Key points

- Spitfire-4 now on production at around 700 barrels of oil per day (bopd) with Spitfire-3, Spitfire-5 and Spifire-6 to be commissioned and placed on production in coming weeks.
- Spitfire-6 flowed at a rate of 1,600 bopd during a 12 hour test, and is scheduled to be placed on an Initial Production Test this week.
