What the Analysts think about GKP
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Gulf Keystone Petroleum Limited stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Gulf Keystone Petroleum Limited stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Shaikan restarted on 16 August and gross volumes were approaching 40,000 barrels per day by the half-year announcement, after previously exceeding 45,000 barrels per day. A sustained recovery towards prior rates would sharply improve revenue after the first-half shutdowns. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum, Proactive Investors)
Export sales produced an average realised price of $83.5 a barrel in the first half, only $8.8 below Dated Brent, versus a much wider discount for local sales previously. The independent review and planned extra liftings could also unlock the accumulated top-up receivable and improve cash generation. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum, Iraq Business News)
Cost cuts limited first-half free cash outflow to $2 million, while GKP remained debt-free with $63.5 million of cash and declared a further $10 million dividend. The PF-2 water-handling project is on track for early 2027 and is expected to add 4,000–8,000 barrels per day of gross production. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum, Proactive Investors)
Security-related shut-ins lasted almost five months in the first half, cutting average production to 14,600 barrels per day from 44,100 a year earlier. A further deterioration could again stop Shaikan, which supplies almost all of GKP’s output. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum)
GKP received only about $30 a barrel in cash under the interim export arrangements, while the balance accumulated in a $79.6 million top-up receivable at June-end. That receivable depends on additional liftings and implementation of the Iraqi review, so reported entitlement revenue has not yet converted fully into cash. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum, Proactive Investors)
The current tripartite export arrangements run only until the end of January 2027, while longer-term agreements at international prices are still being negotiated. Failure to secure a durable framework could leave GKP exposed to renewed export disruption, weaker pricing and postponed drilling. (Gulf Keystone Petroleum, Shafaq News)
