Phase 1 well planning defined FPSO status

-

two main contenders have submitted bids. Currently under review

Wellhead platform options have been identified MOPU/FSO development solution in progress
-

has potential to be a competitive solution with full field capabilities seven rigs identified all fit for purpose five immediately available indicative day rate of circa US$100,000/day

Drilling units short list compiled

EHSS regulatory compliance process well underway

Ebok drilling operations

Ebok development Phase 1

Development criteria Water depth 140 ft Initial production early 2010 Minimum oil rate of 20,000 BOPD Minimum water rate of 20,000 BWPD Gas lift on initial completion Water injection on initial completion

FPSOs /MOPU Several proposals have been evaluated to date for FPSOs / MOPUs / FSOs MOPU and FSO appears to be the most appropriate Wellhead support structures Multiple wellhead refurbishment platforms are available for modification and

Preliminary engineering is continuing on a possible wellhead support structure in association with a FPSO and a freestanding conductor supported structure if the MOPU is used

New wellhead platform?

Platforms and facilities

Refurbished wellhead platform clear advantages

Cost efficiencies Speed Higher specification than a new-build Fit for purpose

Advantages of a MOPU vs FPSO

Flexible drilling schedule Does not require a lift barge Immediate access to produced fluid from wellhead Savings on well support structure Savings on flowlines Easier & more cost effective to expand for a full field development

Requirements for gas Gas lift gas for all producing wells
-

estimated per well requirement 3mmscfg/d

Fuel gas requirement for FPSO power generation Ebok-4 has been T&Ad with a mud-line suspension
-

will be used to re-inject any surplus gas to comply with Government regulations.

At this point in time it is considered unlikely that there will be any spare gas for re-injection
