ACTIVITIES REPORT JUNE 2015 QUARTER
SUMMARY Philippines
SC 44 currently in 2 Year Technical Moratorium until 27th January, 2017.
Studies continue aimed at determining the best well drilling and completion technology to maximise oil production.
Proposed drilling program to be funded by farmout.
France
3 new petroleum exploration licence applications reaching final processing stage before approval.
PHILIPPINES: SERVICE CONTRACT 44 (100%), Onshore Cebu
The Philippine Department of Energy ("DOE") approved a 2 year Technical Moratorium in order to provide sufficient time to complete studies and establish the appropriate completion technology for maximising sustainable oil production that if successful will lead to full oil field appraisal/development.
The Company continues with technical work in conjunction with industry experts who are analyzing all available technical data to identify the completion technology that will minimize sand and clay production to avert production blockage and maximize oil production rates. Preliminary results of this work indicate the preferred method to complete the new wells will be with standard, industry screens. The installation of screens as opposed to perforated casing should maximize and sustain oil production whilst retaining the reservoir sand and producing the clay fines.
Studies are also being conducted on the open-hole mud and hydraulic program designed to minimize formation damage and maintain well-bore stability.
Recent surface geological mapping has also been completed and integrated with previous work leading to a more detailed understanding of the surface geological structure. The crest of the Malolos anticline has been confidently located approximately 2.5 to 3 kilometres south-southwest of Malolos-1. With all technical data now available this is likely to be a better location for testing the Malolos surface anticline than the existing Malolos wells locations.

The forward program will either incorporate the deepening and deviating up-dip the existing Nuevo
Malolos-1 or the drilling of a new well. Planning of the well design is continuing.
Farmout
The Company still considers the best way to fund the full appraisal and development of the Malolos Oil Field is by securing a farmin partner. Farmout presentations are continuing and the Company is now pitching farmin terms that reflect the current lower oil price in order achieve a farmout.
The Malolos Oil Field still represents an attractive investment opportunity despite the recent oil price drop and the immediate effect that it has had on the oil industry Worldwide. The Malolos Oil Field has a 20.4 million barrel "Best Estimate (P50) Contingent Resource" of good quality, low sulphur crude oil that is located onshore, close to transportation in a country with excellent fiscal terms. This could result in very low development and operating costs which will leave a healthy profit margin, even at the
current low oil price.

FRANCE: ST. GRIEDE (100%), Onshore Aquitaine Basin
The Company owns 100% of the St. Griede licence and it regards the oil and gas exploration potential within that licence as being exceptional. 100% ownership provides a great opportunity to create significant value for shareholders. Renewal application was lodged in May, 2013 and the renewal document currently is in the Minister's office awaiting signature. The St. Griede licence renewal is just one of many in France awaiting the Minister's final approval.
The Company planned acquisition of a new seismic survey has been approved by the French
Government. The survey is now expected to be carried out once licence renewal has been received
3
from the French Government. Interpretation of seismic survey will seek to determine at least one well location on a conventional oil and gas prospect for drilling in financial year 2015/2016.
FRANCE: NEW APPLICATIONS (100%), Onshore Aquitaine Basin
Three new licence applications targeting conventional oil and gas (Tartas, Eauze and Mirande) were submitted to the French Government over 3 years ago. These licence applications have been advertised in the European Union Gazette under normal processing procedures and these are approaching grant decisions by the French Government. The areas applied for Eauze and Mirande have been reduced for competitive applications settlement.
