FRONTIER RESOURCES INTERNATIONAL PLC

("Frontier" or the "Company")

Operational Update: Namibia

 

The Board of Frontier (AIM Ticker: FRI), the AIM - traded international oil and gas exploration company with assets in Oman, Zambia and Namibia is pleased to provide shareholders with the following operational update on its activities in Namibia.

Frontier's Namibian blocks, located in the Owambo Basin in northern Namibia, cover an area of approximately 18,933 square kilometers. A two year exploration licence was granted on 20 January 2012. Frontier is operator with a 90% working interest while NAMCOR, the Namibian National Oil Company, has a 10% carried interest in the licence.

The Company's representatives recently travelled to Windhoek where the field crew assembled prior to travelling to northern Namibia where the concession is located.

The Board announces that, together with a representative of Exploration Technologies Inc., ("ETI") from Houston, Texas, it has conducted an in-field training programme to familiarise Frontier's local contractors with the proprietary sampling system used to gather the soil gas samples. During the trip, Company representatives travelled extensively throughout the concession area to view the terrain in general and to assess the logistics that would be involved to acquire seismic data in this area.

Samples are being collected on a regional grid along existing roads, tracks, paths and terrain that is accessible via a field vehicle and/or walking. Global Positioning System (GPS) instruments are being used by the field crew to accurately locate the sampling sites. The samples will be sent to ETI's Houston laboratory for analysis and review. Based on the results of the initial soil gas sample analysis, Frontier will then decide on areas that may require additional sampling.

The soil gas survey field data collection and laboratory analysis is expected to take approximately two months with final results expected by November.

Commentating on today's update, Jack Keyes, Frontier's CEO said "The training of the field crews and the start of the survey has been a very exciting time for all those involved. We look forward to receiving and assessing the initial results to enable us to plan the next phase of our exploration activity."
