Development Plans

A joint development concept through new infrastructure is being investigated

  • Joint development now could include Perth & Dolphin (AP 13.35%) and Lowlander
  • Offers combined potential resource base greater than 80mmboe
  • Creates an enhanced economic opportunity from combining three fields
  • Upside through other undeveloped discoveries

Owners have agreed the commercial and ownership framework

  • Heads of Agreement for the Joint Development of the fields signed, covers;
  • Equity alignment or "Unitisation" process
  • Budget and management of the joint near term work programme
  • Plans for securing finance for the project

Development of a three field oil hub has the potential to add significant value

EXPLORATION

ATLANTIC PETROLEUM EXPLORATION FOCUS

NW Europe exploration portfolio focusing in 5 key areas.

  • Frontier / Emerging
  • West of Shetland and Barents Sea positions being built on back of in-house knowledge.
  • Attractive volumes to mid-caps and majors
  • Emerging
  • Mid Norway position built around Aasta Hansten and Asterix discoveries.
  • Near term development potential on back of new infrastructure
  • Emerging / Mature
  • Strong UK Gas Basin position built with particular focus on Carboniferous.
  • Portfolio built with key strategic relationship with Centrica chasing potential already demonstrated e.g. by Breagh, Cygnus
  • Mature
  • UK CNS focus on oil plays with near term development potential

Exploration focus areas Production/Development/ Near Development

Licence overview

Exploration portfolio built on strong in house knowledge

SNS CARBONIFEROUS PLAY FAIRWAY

  • Atlantic Petroleum accessed considerable expertise and exposure to SNS, especially the emerging Carboniferous play fairway through its purchase of Volantis
  • Several TCF of gas have been discovered in the Carboniferous play in recent years including the Pegasus (AP10%), Breagh, Crosgan and Cygnus discoveries
  • AP has built a significant position in recent years to access the best opportunities to exploit this play

The Carboniferous play is relatively underexplored and offers volume potential

  • Pegasus West well drilling ahead and now nearing reservoir target
  • Drilled as a keeper well and tested, if successful

Resources:

Operator P50 for Pegasus complex: 198 BCF; CoSg 30%

Net Dry Hole Cost Exposure to AP

  • GCA CPR gives unrisked 25MMboe net to AP in two targets

The Skerryvore prospect offers the potential for near term oil production
