UNITED OIL & GAS PLC (formerly SENTERRA ENERGY PLC)

UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS

FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Management Report

United Oil & Gas Plc (the "Company") is pleased to announce the publication of its unaudited interim results for the six month period ended 30 June 2017, which will shortly be available on the Company's website www.uogplc.com

Senterra Energy Plc was originally formed to take control of, or invest in, businesses within the oil and gas sector, favouring companies with production and revenues which could result in scope for growth and attractive returns for shareholders. In July 2017, subsequent to the period covered by this report, the Company completed a reverse takeover of UOG Holdings Plc ("UOG"), and is now listed as United Oil & Gas Plc on the main market of the London Stock Exchange.

United Oil & Gas Plc's strategy is to acquire oil and gas licences in which we can actively influence near-term activity to unlock previously untapped value:

• The management team at UOG has a proven track record of successfully evaluating and recommending farm-in deals, and is actively seeking appropriate opportunities to acquire assets in which full value is currently not being realised.

• Once licences are acquired, we will use our experience in actively working operated and non-operated equity holdings to instigate activity and unlock identified additional value.

• Our primary focus is on the UK and Europe, where we can take advantage of our management team's experience and network of senior oil and gas executives, and also benefit from the stable political and fiscal systems in the region. However, we will consider assets in other countries and regions on an opportunist basis.

• The Company's aim is to build a portfolio of exploration, development and production assets, which our management team will actively manage and look for any opportunities to make enhanced returns to equity holders.

UOG's current portfolio comprises of:

· Waddock Cross Field Project (UK) - 26.25% stake; and

· Podere Gallina Project (Italy) - 20% stake.

In 2016, UOG acquired a stake in the PL090 licence, onshore UK, which includes: the Waddock Cross Field itself and the further exploration area within the PL090 licence. This was followed by a farm-in to the Podere Gallina licence, onshore Italy, in April 2017.

UOG continues to pursue further portfolio growth, with an active pipeline of opportunities across Europe currently under evaluation.

Results for the period

The unaudited financial results for the six month period ended 30 June 2017 are set out in the report.

During this period, the Company generated a pre-tax loss of £166,285, largely as a result of ongoing administrative costs and costs associated with the early stages of the reverse takeover and readmission which was completed in July 2017. Cash assets at the period end were £460,298.

The Company has no debt and continues to be in a strong position to finance its obligations.

Risks and uncertainties

The Directors have identified the following as key risks in the first six months of this financial year:

- The Oil and Gas sector - exploration, development and production

The estimating of reserves and resources is a subjective process and there is significant uncertainty in any reserve or resource estimate. In addition, the exploration for and production of oil and other natural resources is speculative and involves a high degree of risk, in particular a company's operations may be disrupted by a variety of tasks and hazards which are beyond its control such as environmental regulation, governmental regulations or delays, increase in costs, the availability of equipment or services and the volatility of oil and gas prices.

- The Company's relationships with the Directors

The Company is dependent on the Directors to identify potential acquisition opportunities and to execute acquisitions, and the loss of the services of the Directors could materially affect the Company.

- Business Strategy

Our strategy is to acquire oil and gas licences in which we can actively influence near-term activity to unlock previously untapped value.
