BlueNord's Value Proposition

Clear and simple focus on leveraging the strength of our underlying business to:

▽ Maximise Distributions

Maintain a Conservative Capital Structure

Robust Base Production | Halfdan, Dan & Gorm

Robust Base Production

Q1 base production performance in line with expectations

Rig activities for 2025 optimised to reduce near-term cost

1) Excludes production from Tyra

> Q1 production within guidance at 20.9 mboepd

  • " Active asset management to enhance volumes and drive growth
  • = WROM II on Halfdan completed in Jan 2025

> Optimisation of rig activities to reduce near-term cost

  • = Planned Valdemar and Halfdan infill wells deferred from 2025 to 2026/27
  • = Future WROM activities to be executed from platform rather than dedicated rig

Production Guidance for Base Assets(1)

mboe/d.net to BlueNord

Optimisation of Rig Activities to Drive Significant Cost Reductions

Success of HEMJ well reduces need for capex-intensive near term infill drilling activities

Cost savings also expected from switching to platform-based WROM activities

Cashflow impact based on reduced capex, offset by the lower production contribution from relevant activities based on a \$65/boecommodity price

Rig activities for 2025 optimised to reduce capex

  • = HEMJ well success extends Tyra plateau, reducing need for near-term infill wells to fill production capacity (e.g. Valdemar Upper Cretaceous)
  • " Future infill wells to be drilled as campaigns, driving cost efficiency

Two rigs released in 2025

  • Rig for infill drilling to be re-contracted for mid-2026
  • = Switch to platform-based WROM activities will result in significant capex savings

Positive near-term cashflow impact of rig optimisation

· Revised 2025 activity expected to result in higher near-term cashflow

Transformational Growth | Tyra

Tyra Ramp-Up Progressing

Tyrapeak May production c. 26 mboe/d net to BlueNord

From this peak, potential for gas export to increase c. 35% before reaching IP compressor capacity constraint

Ramp-up continuing, with plateau expected in May

BlueNord continues to expect plateau production to be c. 30mboe/d

Tyra ramp-up to plateau c. 90% complete

■ Peak May production of c. 26mboe/d; BlueNordexpects plateau at c. 30mboe/d

Production guidance based on reaching plateau in May

Tyra Strong Reservoir Performance

Tyra is currently producing c. 26 mboe/d, in line with the lower end of the 2025 guidance range for stable operations

Reservoir performance to date has been strong, delivering export volumes from < 40 producing wells

Operator focused on maintaining stable operations and ensuring high operational efficiency

Tyra already producing at lower-end of expected range when at "Stable Operation" (26-30mboe/d)

  • = 91% of wells commissioned and less than 50% of wells on production
    • Wells delivering above expectation, with higher liquids production than expected

Plateau production expected in May 2025

  • = Potential for c. 35% higher gas export before reaching IP compressor constraint
  • = Work ongoing to increase Tyra's production potential
    • Wells being commissioned and subsequently put on production
    • Plans in place to fix minor well issues lift valves, chokes and hydraulic issues

> Focus on maintaining stable operation going forward

= Operator undertaking study to identify key factors impacting facilities operational efficiency

Positive Long-Term Outlook

Denmark | Stable and Supportive

Danish oil & gas production plays an important role in the country's welfare society and towards the EU's security of supply

Strong Rationale to Maximise Danish Output Beyond End of License

Source: Rystad, NSTA, BlueNord internal data

BlueNord operations consistent with Danish and EU Energy Security and Energy Transition objectives

  • " Tyra enables Denmark to become a net exporter of natural gas
  • · Tyra volumes displace significantly more emissions-intensive LNG imports(1)

Focus in Denmark on Maximising Economic Recovery prior to 2050 end date for oil and gas production

  • = Stable fiscal regime with tax stability framework for the DUC
  • = Extensions of Danish licenses are key to enabling full utilisation of existing and future projects - for example, Tyra is only constrained by license expiry in 2042

Oil & gas contributes significantly to Danish welfare

  • E Estimated to deliver state revenues of c. DKK 55 billion during next 15 years
  • = Significant upside potential if period until 2050 is utilised for the DUC

Accretive Projects for Investment

BlueNord's illustrative activity plan reflects the objective of the partnership to Maximise Economic Recovery from the DUC

Expected to deliver net production to BlueNord of > c.50mboe/d during 2025 -2030

Robust plan to add above 60 mmboe of resources

  • =
  • · Three projects planned via unmanned platforms
  • Portfolio of infill well opportunities being continually matured and optimised

Stable Outlook for Production

Long-term potential exists to mitigate decline and maintain plateau production levels after Tyra on stream

Decisions to invest further will need to support long-term cashflow generation potential

Profile includes BlueNord's 2P reserves (Sanctioned and Justified-for-Development) and Near-Term and Long-Term 2C Resources(1) (currently unsanctioned)

Includes 2P reserves and Near-Term and Long-Term 2C resources (currently unsanctioned)

Attractive Organic Portfolio Supporting a Robust Production Profile Beyond 2030(2)

Solid Financial Performance

Q1-25 Earnings Highlights

Revenue mix shows Tyra volumes increasing but impacted by gas penalties due to operational incidents

Opex up due to workovers replacing infill drilling (corresponding capex decrease); plus higher transportation cost with higher gas volumes

Contribution remains steady but set to increase as I yra stabilises

Opex comprises direct costs attributable to
