Lansdowne Oil & Gas plc Farm-in opportunity offshore Ireland Rosscarbery prospects and Galley Head gas field Galley Head discovery: 30 Bcf GIIP / 25 Bcf recoverable SE Rosscarbery & Rosscarbery prospects: 324 Bcf GIIP / 247 Bcf recoverable Introduction Lansdowne Oil & Gas plc (“Lansdowne”) has engaged Macquarie to secure a co-venturer seeking a portion of its 99% working interest in Standard Exploration Licence (“SEL”) 5/07 (part-blocks 48/17, 18, 19, 22 & 24) in the North Celtic Sea Basin in consideration for funding a 2015 exploration well on the SE Rosscarbery prospect. SEL 5/07 contains the Galley Head gas discovery and two nearby large gas prospects. Lansdowne announced a farm-out of nearby SEL 4/07 in November 2014, whereby PSE Kinsale Energy Limited will assume operatorship and, in due course, source a suitable drilling rig to drill the Midleton prospect. A multi-well drilling programme in the North Celtic Sea Basin offers significant cost synergies in terms of mobilisation and demobilisation. Summary The Rosscarbery area comprises the Galley Head gas discovery and a number of prospects on the northern flank of the North Celtic Sea Basin. The prospects were originally Identified on 2D seismic and confirmed by 2011 3D seismic. Fluid anomalies identified on 3D seismic, interpreted as direct gas indicators. The acreage is located approximately 30 km offshore in relatively shallow water (c. 100m). It is c. 20 km from potential tie-in points to existing producing infrastructure. Shallow drilling targets (c. 3,000 ft) make this a low cost opportunity with the potential for rapid monetisation. Dual targets for gas in the Lower Cretaceous Greensand / “A“ Sand and underlying Lower Cretaceous Upper Wealden sandstone reservoirs. Contingent gas resources in the Galley Head discovery (Greensand / “A” Sand reservoir). Total licence potential of 354 Bcf GIIP / 272 Bcf recoverable. PSE Kinsale Energy Limited will, in due course, source a drilling rig in order to drill an exploration well on the Midleton prospect in nearby SEL 4/07. Lansdowne will seek to secure a rig slot option in order to carry out drilling on the Rosscarbery area as part of a potential multi-well drilling campaign in the North Celtic Sea Basin. Sizeable equity stake and operatorship available.
