Corporate Presentation for the Credit Suisse 5[th] Annual Australian Energy Conference Sydney June 2018.

Comet Ridge Limited (ASX:COI) is pleased to advise that it has been invited to attend the 5[th] Annual Australian Energy Conference, hosted by Credit Suisse.

“This is the first year that Comet Ridge has been invited to attend the Annual Energy Conference and is a validation of the significant achievements the Company has delivered in the last 12 to 18 months” said Comet Ridge Managing Director, Tor McCaul. “Comet Ridge is no longer considered just oil and gas explorer but has now moved into the category of hydrocarbon developer/producer with the near-term development potential of its lead project Mahalo.”

The Credit Suisse Energy Conference is being held in Sydney on Wednesday 13 June and Thursday 14 June. Some of the other nine attendees include AGL Energy, Beach Energy, Oil Search, Origin Energy and Santos.

Attached is the Corporate Presentation circulated to the Conference on Comet Ridge.

COMET RIDGE LIMITED – OVERVIEW

Comet Ridge Limited has a 40% interest in the Mahalo Coal Seam Gas (CSG) project located in ATP 1191 in Queensland’s Bowen Basin. The Company is currently acting as agent for the Exploration Operator to manage work in the block. The Company also holds a 70% effective interest (consequent on the successful Farm-in of Vintage Energy Limited) in the Albany conventional gas project and 100% in the Gunn CSG project in the Galilee Basin (ATP 743, ATP 744 and ATP 1015). The Company also has CSG equity of 29.55%, 59.09% and 68.42% respectively in PEL 6, PEL 427 and PEL 428 in the Gunnedah Basin in New South Wales. Gas resources have been certified by independent professional certifiers at several projects, and gas reserves were certified in 2014 and expanded in 2015 and 2018 for the Mahalo project. The Company is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX Code: COI) and is based in Brisbane. The Board and Management are experienced in establishing and developing energy projects. Comet Ridge’s early entry into well-located exploration areas, has allowed shareholders to gain substantial leverage into the considerable upside value potential associated with exploration success.

Mahalo Project

----- End of picture text -----

Well productivity has exceeded expectations

• The Mira 6 / 2 horizontal-vertical well combination was brought on-line by APLNG in December 2017 and commenced producing gas after two days

• Gas rate has risen to 1.2 mmcf/d (early June) from 924m horizontal well in Castor seam

• Mira 6 performance has exceeded expectations and assisted in maiden 1P reserve

• Development wells could be twice as far in coals as Mira 6, and have horizontal well paths in two or more coals = significantly more productivity for low incremental cost

Comet Ridge Managing 2018 Mahalo Program

==> picture [458 x 335] intentionally omitted <==

• Agency agreement extended by Santos and Comet Ridge to 31 December 2018 for Comet Ridge to continue to manage appraisal work

• Work Program & Budget fully approved by JV

• Budget includes environmental and cultural heritage work required for Petroleum Lease (PL) and Pipeline Licence (PPL) applications

• Multiple wells in budget and locations to be finalised shortly

• Comet Ridge expects more movement of 3P reserve to 2P category during 2018

Development Concept

• Comet Ridge to Target FID in late 2018

*Development Concept: possible option displayed

==> picture [357 x 272] intentionally omitted <==

1. Conversion of significant 3P to 2P reserve was achieved early 2018 with reserves upgrade

• Some further 2P addition may be possible during 2018 at very modest cost

2. 25 TJ/d from northern part of the block to fill available pipeline capacity nearby (west) looks like constraining production given latest reserve picture

• 25 TJ/d is less than 1% of gross 3P reserve production annually (too low)

3. Initial production phase with long horizontal or multi-lateral wells to target 100+TJ/d likely to provide much better value

Minimum gas processing required – only separation, compression and dehydration

• dedicated export pipeline (sized for expansion) required to run only 60 km to the south

• *Comet Ridge internal concept. Development remains subject to unanimous approval of Joint Venture.

Mahalo likely to be at low end of cost curve

✓ Shallow

• ❑ Only 225 metres to coal

• ❑ Lower drilling and completion costs

✓ Permeable

• ❑ Mahalo 7 flowed 1200 scfd per metre of coal intersected with Mira 6 achieving similar result

• ❑ Higher flowrates means less wells

✓ Less Water

• ❑ Low water-gas ratio on both Mahalo 7 & Mira 6

• ❑ Lower water handling capex and opex

• ✓ Low

• ❑ No coal fines requiring workovers

maintenance

• ✓ Gas Quality

• ❑ No expensive CO2 or H2S removal to get to sales gas spec

• ❑ Use basic carbon steel in wells, flowlines and plant

• ✓ Close to infrastructure

• ❑ 14 km - nearest pipeline connection

• ❑ 60 km - Mira Pilot to Jemena pipeline

• ❑ 63 km - Mira Pilot to GLNG pipeline

Galilee Basin – Significant Scale

==> picture [376 x 418] intentionally omitted <==

• Basin covers a large part of central western Queensland (~250,000km[2] )

• Comet has a massive position in the east portion of the Basin

• Land use is grazing on very large stations

• Historic oil exploration (1964 & 1995) includes gas flows from Sandstones at 2800 metres

• Comet has a dual sandstone and CSG opportunity

• Planned Galilee coal mine just to the east

• Jemena announced plans to fast track extension of Northern Gas Pipeline from Mt Isa to Roma

Galilee Basin – Large Number of Potential Targets

Galilee Sandstone Leads and Prospects

▪ Significant gross 3C[+] resources certified in Sandstones (417PJ) in one structure to date

▪ Previous gas flows from oil exploration wells in Comet blocks

• Seismic data set is sparse

• 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

Sandstone “Deeps” Farm-out to Vintage Energy

$8.5 million farm-out programme for Vintage to earn 30% interest in Sandstone reservoir (‘Deeps’). Comet Ridge retains 100% of CSG potential

• Vintage Energy farm-out to Sandstone reservoir sequence of Comet Ridge’s ATP743, 744 and 1015 (Galilee Permits) formally completed

• Vintage team previously had significant onshore Australian oil and gas experience and success

• Currently drilling Albany 1, results expected within the next couple of weeks

Comet Ridge – Key messages

==> picture [396 x 435] intentionally omitted <==

• Mahalo is one of the east coast’s

largest, most productive and proximal to market gas fields not currently in production

• Significant upside from Galilee – Albany sandstone currently being drilled, results shortly. CSG target for pilot drilling late in 2018

• East coast gas market continues to tighten due to moratoria on gas exploration, shut-down of coal fired generation and increasing LNG demand

• Comet Ridge well placed to form part of the supply solution for the east coast gas market
