AGL Energy Limited (AGL) today announced that it has increased its total proved plus probable (2P) gas reserves entitlement for ATP 1103 as at 31 August 2013 to 968 petajoules (PJ), an increase of 100 PJ (11.5%) over the past eight months.

Arrow Energy, the operator of ATP 1103, engaged independent reserves evaluation company Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc (NSAI) to reassess reserves and resources prior to the end of 2013 to meet relinquishment requirements for the tenement under Queensland Government legislation.

There are no other changes to AGL’s reserves and resources reported on 28 August 2013, other than field depletion owing to gas sales.

Further details are included in Appendix A.
