    The Shoba and Taskuduk oilfields in Kazakhstan produced 42,059 barrels of oil or an average of 457 bopd for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 111,806 barrels of oil or an average of 410 bopd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 the Company produced 5,903 barrels of oil or an average of 64 bopd. Production increased as there was no production in 2016 until mid-September when production resumed at Shoba following the signing of the Shoba production contract.

    In Turkey, construction of the Poyraz Ridge gas processing facility is complete. Construction of the 6" sales gas pipeline is also complete after receiving approvals for all the surface right-of-way access rights. Production is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2017 at an initial rate of 10 MMscf/day following formal commissioning of the facility and the pipeline and obtaining the customary government approvals.

    The Poyraz 3 and Poyraz West 4 development wells in Turkey have been completed and tied into the processing facilities.

    The Yakamoz 1 exploration well in Turkey was drilled to a total depth of 2,250 meters to test a "new" sub thrust-fold play type located 2 km from the Poyraz Ridge gas field. The well confirmed that an active petroleum system extends to the north and west of Poyraz Ridge and, as predicted, numerous gas shows proved an extensive fracture system prevails along the Miocene-Eocene sub-thrust trend. Though Yakamoz 1 was abandoned without testing, the well provided critical structural and stratigraphic information that can be tied back to the regional 2D seismic as it relates to trap, reservoir and seal within this fairway. Based on the new velocity-depth information, re-mapping of the Yakamoz prospect concluded the well was drilled off-structure. Condor is currently integrating this data into a revised geological model with a view to side-tracking the Yakamoz 1 well in addition to high grading prospective areas for future 3D seismic and additional exploration drilling along and sub-parallel to this trend.

    The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 of $66.5 million (2016: $8.7 million) includes $56.6 million of exploration and evaluation expense pertaining to the derecognition of the Zharkamys contract in the first quarter of 2017 and $1.6 million of exploration and evaluation expense related to the Yakamoz 1 well. Cash used in operations amounted to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2016. Capital expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2017 amounted to $2.8 million (2016: $6.6 million) and for both periods relates mainly to Poyraz Ridge field development in Turkey.
