ORPHEUS SECURES SIGNIFICANT INFRASTRUCTURE DEAL THROUGH ACQUISITION OF SOUTH KALIMANTAN PORT CAPACITY


COALspot.com : Orpheus Energy Limited (ASX: OEG) of Australia has today announced that, it has executed a binding agreement with the proprietor of SKJM Port in South Kalimantan, Indonesia to secure exclusive barge loading capacity in excess of 200,000 tonnes per month for a term of 10 years.

According to company's press release, the company has secured exclusive 10 year agreement with SKJM Port operators in South Kalimantan. Initially Orpheus to be responsible for allocation of loading slots for 5 years. The agreement  is allowing Orpheus to extend for another 5 years.

Initially around 150,000 tonnes tons of coal to be handled per month through the port and it will increase to around 200,000 tonnes/month (up to 3Mtpa) after port upgrade. First barge to be loaded immediately, according to the company’s note.

Orpheus Executive Chairman, Wayne Mitchell, commented: “We are delighted to announce this highly material infrastructure development which will provide robust cash flows for Orpheus.  We have been working on this deal for a significant period of time and the execution of the SKJM Port agreement fundamentally changes our company from a modest producer and seller of coal, to a vertically integrated mining company of significant size.

“Orpheus has continued to progress its strategic objective to manage its entire coal chain from mine mouth to end buyer, and encouragingly, the company now has the capacity to do that. Given challenging market conditions, Orpheus has adapted extremely well to diversify its revenue streams and this agreement, along with our existing mining and trading operations, is another important step in the company working towards its goal of becoming cash flow positive.” 

“We are particularly pleased we were able to negotiate a very favourable arrangement with one of our customers to fund the acquisition and development cost and the structure of this deal means we can avoid the dilution of existing shareholders”, he concluded.

Highlights include:
-- Exclusive 10 year agreement with SKJM Port operators in South Kalimantan, initially for 5 years, with an extension for another 5 years at Orpheus’s option
-- Initially 150,000 tonnes/month increasing to 200,000+ tonnes/month (up to 3Mtpa) after port upgrade: First barge to be loaded immediately
-- Orpheus to be responsible for allocation of loading slots
-- First infrastructure deal demonstrating stated vertical integration strategy
-- Strategic infrastructure platform to increase revenues
-- Acquisition and development costs to be funded off balance sheet by local infrastructure investor with principal to be repaid by SKJM Port
