  * H1 2013 revenue of £2.2 million (H1 2012: £2.4 million) for three onshore
    producing UK assets

    (`boepd') (H1 2012: 190 boepd)
   
  * 
      + 177 boepd includes the equivalent of 6 boepd earned as commission on
        oil deliveries Europa made on behalf of another oil company -
        arrangement ceased in December 2012.
       
      + Workovers successfully completed on two West Firsby wells during the
        period - both wells back on production
       
  * On course to achieve full year production target of 180 boepd
   
  * Oil price US$110.1 per barrel compared with US$108.9 in 2012
   
  * Foreign exchange movements negatively impacted revenues by 1%
   
Europa's CEO, Hugh Mackay commented, "I am highly encouraged by the continuing
good performance of our producing UK assets which has generated revenues of £
2.2 million in the first half of this year. The back to back workovers on the
two West Firsby wells were potentially disruptive and I commend
our operations team for their efforts, dedication and professionalism in
completing the work efficiently. As a result we remain on course to hit our
full year production target of 180 boepd.

"The revenues generated by our UK production assets help fund our exploration
activity, most notably our share of drilling costs for either the Wressle or
Broughton prospects in the UK in H1 2013. We rate each of these as having a one
in three chance of increasing our current production. We will continue to
recycle the revenues generated from production into further exploration as we
look to monetise our asset base and in the process create value for
shareholders."
