Eastern Australia – More Gas Required

Substantial green activism against gas despite the significant contribution gas makes to industry & the national economy
Some (MOST) states and territories – limiting gas supply as demand increases dramatically !
Queensland and South Australia have been blessed with gas common sense
Additional gas supply is the only effective and rational response

ASX Code : COI

Comet Ridge – Supply Solutions

Comet Ridge assets can form part of the supply solution for eastern gas market

 Near term – Mahalo:

Complete current programme to substantially increase 2P reserves base
Develop asset with JV partners (Santos 30% & APLNG 30%)

 Medium term – Galilee:

Substantial resources - 2,200 PJ 3C[+] across coals & sandstones
Substantial scale - 9,700 km[2]
100% equity position allowing farm-down options

 Longer term – Gunnedah:

Assets cover 17,000 km[2] & are located north of Santos’ Narrabri development
Longer term hold-then-follow strategy

Mahalo Production Performance

 Overall performance of JV Equity: horizontal well and Mahalo Pilot has been very Comet Ridge 40% pleasing Santos 30% APLNG 30%  Gas flowrate 426 mcfd from horizontal with only 361 metres in coal

 Scale up of short Mahalo 7 horizontal well to longer development wells is logical and achievable

Mira Production Performance – Mira 3, 4 & 5

Well production enhancement process

==> picture [360 x 410] intentionally omitted <==

Coal (fractures plugged by fines) is removed from around wellbore
Provides easier pathway for gas and water to flow to well
Drilling tool run inside casing with expandable arms
Tool placed across coals and rotated at high speed
Water pumped down inside of drillpipe carries coal material back to surface outside of drillpipe and inside of casing
Production tubing and downhole pump then run back into the well and well returned to production
Wells on line late August - already producing minor gas with flare intermittently lit

Mahalo Development Concept

Significant analysis work completed – examining the most efficient and effective way to move the northern pilot schemes into production via available export pipeline capacity and field infrastructure

Three Step Process:

1. Conversion of existing 3P to 2P reserve

Production enhancement at Mira Pilot
Single step-out corehole in north east

2. Initial production phase targeting 25 TJ/d from northern part of the block

Utilise existing facilities to minimise capex spend and construction time

3. Expand initial production phase to full field target of 100+TJ/d

Based around well production rates from initial production phase to guide field development

The Right Ingredients For Development

Shallow  Mahalo Pilot only 225 metres to coal
Lower drilling and completion costs
Permeable
Mahalo 7 flowed 1.2 mcfd gas per metre of coal intersected along horizontal well
Higher flowrates / less wells
Low water rates  Mahalo 7 peaked at only 30 bwpd so exceptionally low water-gas ratio
Lower water handling capex and opex / less workovers
Gas Quality
Close to
infrastructure
No expensive CO2 or H2S removal to get to sales gas spec
Use basic carbon steel in wells, flowlines and plant
14 km - nearest pipeline connection
60 km - Mira Pilot to Jemena pipeline

These key parameters will place Mahalo at the low end of the cost curve

63 km - Mira Pilot to GLNG pipeline

Galilee Basin – Sandstones

Koburra Trough

3 historic petroleum wells recovered oil gas & flowed gas from Lake Galilee Sandstone - all now in Comet Ridge acreage
Koburra 1, Carmichael 1 and Lake Galilee 1 flowed gas to surface at low rates - active petroleum system
However early basin wells were targeting oil and not designed to evaluate gas potential (high mud overbalance / not tested immediately on penetration etc.)

Lake Galilee 1 – oil recovered
Potential for significant gas volumes
GTS – flowed gas to surface
• OTS – recovered oil to surface

Galilee Basin – Sandstone Leads & Prospects

Galilee Sandstone Targets

Galilee Basin lightly explored
Previous gas flows from oil exploration wells in this area
Seismic data set is sparse
No targets (yet) in areas of no seismic
Albany has approx. 150m of gross sandstone with approx. 40m of net
Successful gas flow in the first well could foreshadow wider success right across the eastern basin

Significant number of sandstone leads and prospects identified from relatively sparse seismic data set in the eastern Galilee

Gunn Project Area

6 individual coal seams
depth to coal 700-1,000m
16m net coal deposited over large area
average gas content 4.3 m[3] /t (high 7.3 m[3] /t)
good to excellent permeability within target coals
Gunn-2 Production Test
perforated single 4m coal interval
seam isolated above and below by impermeable mudstone
established connectivity to coals
evaluated methods of formation water treatment

Galilee Basin – Forward View

==> picture [390 x 408] intentionally omitted <==

Comet Ridge Work Programme to be funded by gas pre-sale or equity farm-in (process underway)
A structurally short east coast market is now looking to the Galilee Basin for gas volume
Comet Ridge’s eastern position with large gas resources will have increasing significance
Sandstone Gas at Albany - logical first step due to size and position on the basin eastern edge
Sandstone Gas at Lake Galilee structure - second step due to size and proximity to Albany (23km)
CSG in the Gunn Project Area - third step due to the large volume and continuous nature of the coals
Each of these three areas can be supported in the field as the one project with corresponding scale benefits
