Vermilion Energy Reports Strong Q1 Production of 125,000 boe/d
Vermilion Energy announces strong Q1 production. Q1 production averaged approximately 125,000 boe/d, exceeding the top end of our quarterly guidance range of 122,000 to 124,000 boe/d. Production was comprised of approximately 59% Canadian gas, 13% European gas and 28% liquids. This strong production result is driven by outperformance in both the Deep Basin and Montney, robust production from the Osterheide well in Germany, and new Montney wells brought online sooner than anticipated, partially offset by lower volumes in Australia due to cyclone-related downtime. European gas production in Q1 2026 realized an average sales price of approximately $16/MMBtu, reflecting significantly higher day-ahead gas prices during March 2026 amid heightened geopolitical developments in the Middle East. We remain on track to bring on new production from the first Wisselshorst well in Germany by mid-year, spud the next Netherlands well in the second half of 2026, and spud follow-up Germany Wisselshorst wells on the Bommelsen license in early 2027. In Australia, production operations at Wandoo safely resumed in mid-March 2026 following downtime related to Cyclone Mitchell in February 2026. The facility was subsequently shut-in due to Cyclone Narelle in late March 2026. The company expects to restore production in early Q2. Average production in Australia during the quarter was approximately 1,000 bbl/d, and we exported approximately 300,000 barrels of oil in February 2026.
