The Taroom Trough – Australia’s Next Major Energy Supply
1. Proximity to Infrastructure & Markets
- On the doorstep of the Wallumbilla Gas Hub, the gateway to the structurally short domestic market
- Proximal to 25 mtpa of LNG capacity at Gladstone via multiple nearby dedicated pipelines
- Two refineries within QLD for oil and condensate sales
2. Scale & Maturity
- Independently certified multi-TCF and C-mmbbls Resource play
- Significant flows of gas and oil already recorded and likely commercial in nature
- Commercialisation being led by a Supermajor
3. Quality & Cost
- Gas quality better than pipeline spec, oil/condensate high quality
- Sits amongst prolific CSG industry with broad oilfield services availability

The Taroom Trough is a Montney sized opportunity

The break-throughs and success of the prolific Montney were nation and industry building for Canada’s energy security and the creation of their LNG export opportunities.
- The Montney was brought about by a technological revolution in drilling and completions from the US.
- The Taroom Trough is geologically similar to the basin centred gas play within the Montney with similar geographical size.
- The Taroom is Australia’s Montney and multi-TCF solution to the missing future source of supply.
- Alberta to Queensland: the dominant operators of the Montney play include Shell, Conoco Phillips, Kogas and Petronas amongst others. These operators are major players in QLD and also own the LNG infrastructure in Gladstone, QLD.

Market settings before the drilling boom

Price of gas in Canada (mid-2000's) before horizontal drilling arrived
The Montney's paradox was that the technology that unlocked the resource also flooded the market and crashed the price, precisely because there was no export outlet. That problem wasn't solved until LNG Canada came online

Price of gas in Canada by 2012, $3 GJ today

Price of gas in Brisbane in 2025
Australia's east coast is in the opposite position right now, there's a supply deficit and existing pipeline infrastructure, so Taroom gas has a ready premium market to flow into from day one, a far more favourable starting position than the Montney faced.

The four-stages of Montney D&C success which can be replicated in the Taroom
-
Get the productivity up
application of horizontal drilling and multi-stage stimulation -
Get the recovery up
number of stages, optimisation of stage spacing, proppant intensities and types and length of horizontals -
Get the costs down
apply the economies of scale and repeatability to drive efficiency gains and bulk purchasing benefits -
Focus on the areas of best economics
chase the best reservoir or the particular commodity exposure (gas v oil). Gas with oil preferenced from value and completion cost

Gas EUR- Frac Stages v Prod Year (wet gas wells)
85% productivity inc with only a 50% inc in stage intensity¹

Montney well count by target phase (2016-26)
Total 8,289 Hz wells¹
Liquids rich gas preferenced as the gas provides natural lift and liquids provide the cream to the economics

Lorelle-3 a defining moment for the Taroom

- Best in basin execution. Longest lateral length executed, completed a complex scope (whole core, no MPD, pilot to lateral etc).
- Cost effective: inclusive of vertical, dedicated R&D associated scope was $15.7m to drill, abandon-vert, case and suspend. 5,691m completed in 46 days.
- L3 has confirmed 148m of net gas pay across the 4-main Permian reservoir units.
- Primary target and all secondary targets successful.
- Significant upside result in the Lorelle Sandstone which is anomalous in comparison to what has been observed to date.

Lorelle-3H: Homogeneous Reservoir Results with Seismic Conformity
Lorelle-3H Petrophysics
- 1,033m net pay
- Maximum Porosity 18%
- Average Porosity 11.2%
- Sw: 30 - 60%
- Gas samples attained
Future Operations (June-26)
- ~13-stage stimulation
- 30-day gas and condensate production test
- Future potential Reserves booking

The Tinowon Dunk Sands are observable on 2D seismic. Lorelle-3H proved the correlation is strong, this bodes well for being able to map this advantaged play across the Taroom.

Todays Montney Benchmarking, what does a good Taroom well look like?

The average Montney well drilled over the last 10-years has an¹:
- Spacing of 350m
- 3km lateral section
- 9.2 BCF EUR
- Peak IP rates have risen over 10-years of optimisation from ~3 mmscfd to >8mmscfd
- Reservoir landing zone thickness 25m

The Dunk Sand play is material in its own right when comparing to Montney analogues
- Elixir has been able to map $2,795 \mathrm{~km}^{2}$ of prospective Dunk sand area using offset wells, public seismic plus its proprietary L-3 logs and its recently acquired Teelba 2D seismic.
- Elixir has $1,137\mathrm{km}^2$ of exposure to this key wet-gas area or $40\%$ of its total acreage.
- Montney average wells with $25\mathrm{m}$ of similar net reservoir, $350\mathrm{m}$ spacing and $3,000\mathrm{m}$ lateral sections yield an average recovery of $8.76\mathrm{BCF_e / km^2}$. (9.2 BCFe per well)¹
- Applying this analogue would imply that the mapped Dunk polygon could contain up to 24 TCFe of recoverable gas and condensate alone. This is $\sim 10$ TCFe over Elixir's acreage.
- Lorelle-3H (1,157m in 28m of Dunk sand) to prove it. But don't forget the Kianga Reservoirs and Lorelle Sandstone as well!
Will Lorelle-3 to potentially unlock the path to 24 TCFe regionally?? We are all watching and waiting...

Taroom v Montney Conclusions
Lessons from the Montney success story
- Multi-stage horizontal fracking transformed Montney from stranded to world-class.
- Early estimates materially underestimated recoveries because completion technology evolved so rapidly.
- Following the play book quickly will rapidly lower the costs: tech iteration, infra buildout, bulk drilling, then data driven sweet spots.
However, the Taroom should be faster and more profitable to reach the same point, why?
Technology
N. American drilling and completion technologies have advanced significantly in efficacy, efficiency of deployment and substantial reduction in costs already.
Infrastructure
All of the infrastructure required for the Taroom’s gas and oil products to reach its markets on scale are already in place
Markets
The Taroom will not suffer the same success paradox; as the Taroom already has immediate access to:
- A large structurally short domestic gas market that will likely grow in deficit
- Local refining capacity that has no domestic crude supply
- International gas markets via 6 trains of LNG needing supply now or backfill

Taroom Trough unlocking Australia's first domestic oil supply in half a century
Queensland is unlocking the development of Australia's first oil field in 50 years at the Taroom Trough, to bolster the nation's long-term fuel security, with streamlined support under a new Taroom Trough Development Plan.
The first barrels of oil from the Taroom Trough are now making their way into the domestic fuel supply with Shell producing 200 barrels of high-quality crude oil a day, which is being refined at IDR's Eromanga refinery, and produced into diesel.

Notes: 1. These are un-risked contingent resources that have not been risked for the chance of development and there is no certainty that it will be economically viable to produce any portion of the contingent resources. These Contingent Resources are classified as "Development Unclarified". 2. Totals added arithmetically and rounded. 3. Gas equivalency: 1 barrel is 6,000 cubic feet of gas 4. The new contingent resources for ATP 2077 have been evaluated by Sproule ERCE in a report dated 5 November 2025. 5. Basin Centered Gas and Condensate Contingent Resources were previously evaluated, detailed in separate reports by Sproule ERCE and announced to the ASX. 6. There is no overriding royalties associated with these gas resources a 3% ORR royalty exists for liquids production in ATP2044.
The effective date of the Sproule ERCE Contingent Resources is 5 November 2025.
The production method will be by stimulated vertical, deviated and horizontal wells. As the gas is considered low impurity, minimal processing will be required at the wellsite, with dehydration and separation likely to be required to meet pipeline specifications.
BCF means Billions of Standard Cubic Feet and mmbbls means Millions of Barrels.
The totals are based on arithmetic aggregation of reservoir estimates. It must be noted that the 1C estimates may be conservative and the aggregate 3C estimates may be optimistic due to the portfolio effects of arithmetic summation.
Contingent resource assessments in this release were estimated using probabilistic methods in accordance with 2018 PRMS SPE-PRMS standards.
The data used to compile the independent contingent resources report includes detailed geological interpretation of seismic, well, core and test data within the region. ERCE has used standard petroleum evaluation techniques in the preparation of this report. These techniques combine geophysical and geological knowledge with assessments of porosity and permeability distributions, fluid characteristics and reservoir pressure. There is uncertainty in the measurement and interpretation of basic data. ERCE has estimated the degree of this uncertainty and determined the range of petroleum initially in place and recoverable hydrocarbons. The accuracy of estimates of volumes of gas is a function of the quality and quantity of available data and of interpretation and judgment. While the estimates of contingent resources presented herein are considered reasonable, these estimates should be accepted with the understanding that reservoir performance subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision, either upward or downward. There is no certainty that it will be economically viable to produce any portion of the contingent resources.
This document contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risk factors associated with the oil and gas industry. It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable, but they and or their timing may be affected by many variables which could cause actual results or trends to differ materially.
