Marshall Abbott, CEO of Arrow commented, “2019 represented the first full year of operations for Arrow as a new company. The Company made a significant commercial discovery in May 2019 on its Tapir Block, through successfully drilling the Rio Cravo Este-1 (RCE-1) well. We have identified two additional RCE well locations on the Tapir Block. On our LLA-23 block, production rates over the past several months have been negatively impacted by significantly lower oil prices, in addition to well-specific issues which Arrow’s new management team intends on addressing contingent on the availability of additional capital. Production at Ombu (Arrow holds 10%) remains shut-in pending the recovery of oil prices and the resolution of community issues.”Mr. Abbott continued, “The Company wishes to extend our gratitude to all of its stakeholders for their continued support of Arrow during these exceptionally challenging times for our industry.
