Triangle Energy will bank almost $17 million from the latest oil sales from its share in the Cliff Head oilfield, offshore Dongara in Western Australia, after lifting more than 140,000 barrels of oil in the last output to be sold through BP's Kwinana oil terminal before it is converted into a clean energy hub. Triangle shares the Cliff Head venture with Pilot Energy.

Triangle Energy has completed the first stages of pivoting away from its ageing, offshore foundation asset of Cliff Head by completing a 3D seismic survey over its onshore permits as it seeks to replicate the success of fellow explorers in the Perth Basin in discovering elephant-size gas fields along the route of the Dampier-to-Bunbury natural gas pipeline.

Triangle Energy has outlined a series of new initiatives including the commencement of a seismic program over some significant onshore Perth Basin targets. Alongside Pilot Energy, the two companies have also outlined adjustments to a number of permits including for the Cliff Head joint venture that will result in a serious reduction in abandonment liabilities on completion.

Triangle Energy's imminent acquisition of a highly prospective Perth Basin block has been boosted by news it has delivered a 370 per cent increase in its best gas resource estimate – from 165 billion cubic feet of gas to 617bcf. Triangle is buying the 50 per cent it doesn't already own in the acreage from departing partner Key Petroleum.

Triangle Energy's new board has laid out its plan for the road ahead since taking control of the Perth Basin operator, focusing firmly on the $11 million final shipment from the BP Kwinana facility in June. The company has just completed a strategic review that aims to preserve and increase production across its portfolio of assets.
