O The first phase of the Company's technical work programme has successfully been completed, with multiple new seismic attribute supported anomalies identified
o Material aggregate resource potential from two primary prospects, comprising a best estimate (Pmean) of ~380 million barrels oil recoverable, and an upside (P10) case of ~980 million barrels oil recoverable
o Shallow water and reservoir depths of these primary prospects underpin relatively low development costs, and thus commerciality at even modest discovery volumes
o Considerable additional exploration potential, including possible slope turbidite and low stand fan play exposure in the north-east of the block
o The planned farmout process for AREA OFF-3 has commenced. ... The Company will be seeking initial offers by year-end, with a view to selecting a suitable partner(s) during the first quarter of 2026.
In addition to the 1,250km2 of 3D seismic data already reprocessed, mapped and interpreted by the Company, an additional 2,000 km2 of reprocessed 3D seismic data is available for licensing and further analysis, covering the north-eastern segment of the block adjacent to the Brazilian maritime border - regional 2D coverage indicates possible slope turbidite and low stand fan play exposure in this north-eastern segment of the block (a similar play system to that which has yielded many of the recent, major discoveries on the Namibian margin of the South Atlantic basin).
