Global Petroleum Limited
Preliminary Results for the year ended 30 June 2007
Review of Operations AND ACTIVITIES
Kenya (Global 20%)
The Company began drilling its first well during the financial year. The well,
Pomboo No. 1 in Licence L-5, Kenya, spudded on 2 December 2006. The Company's
weekly report dated 28 December 2006 reported that the depth reached was 2,944
metres (751 metres below the seabed).
The costs associated with Global's 20% in respect of this well are fully carried
so no costs were incurred by the Company. The other joint venture parties are:
• Woodside Energy 30% (and operator)
• Dana Petroleum 30%
• Repsol Exploracion 20%
On 23 January 2007, Woodside as operator of the Company's Kenya Joint Venture
announced that Pomboo No. 1 had reached a total depth of 4,887 metres and would
be plugged and abandoned. The well encountered 'in excess of 200 metres of
moderate to good quality reservoir sandstones' in the primary target zone from
4,685m to the total depth but without oil or gas.
It had been expected that the drilling rig would move to Licence L-7 immediately
following Pomboo to drill Sokwe South No. 1. However at a meeting of the Joint
Venture on 24 January 2007 it was decided not to drill Sokwe South No. 1 in this
drilling campaign. The voting equity of Woodside and Repsol as farminees was
sufficient to make this decision binding on the Joint Venture. The Company's
announcement dated 25 January 2007 advised shareholders of this outcome.
While there are numerous prospects and leads in our Kenya Licences L-5 and L-7,
and Pomboo has established the presence of reservoirs and seals, the well lacked
oil and gas shows. The JV decided that the next phase of exploration should be
determined after a comprehensive technical assessment of the relevance and
implications of the new information obtained from Pomboo. Woodside is currently
finalising the Post Pomboo-1 study review of blocks 5 & 7 offshore Kenya. This
was a joint study comprised of staff from both Woodside and the Kenyan
Government and its scope includes the integration of the results of the Pomboo-1
well drilled during the financial year with all the previous data within these 2
blocks and will provide an updated review of their remaining potential.
Following finalisation of the study, the forward programme in these two blocks
will be determined.
The carrying value of the Company's Kenya exploration expenditure has been
written-down during the financial year by $8,128,738 to reflect the unsuccessful
drilling of the first well.
Falkland Oil and Gas Limited ('FOGL') (Global shareholding 14.0%)
FOGL has a holding of 65,000 km2 of prospective offshore licences to the East
and South of the Falkland Islands.
In its operations update announced on 7 June 2007, FOGL advised the completion
of its 2D seismic infill survey in which a total of 9,950 kilometers of new
seismic data had been acquired from Wavefield InSeis AS. Processing of this data
had commenced although this would take several months to complete.
The second phase of the Controlled Source Electro-Magnetic ('CSEM') survey was
commenced on 4 June 2007. The acquisition phase of this survey was expected to
take 6-8 weeks to complete although results from the first phase of the survey
had been encouraging. The processing of this data is ongoing.
The forward plan then for FOGL is to integrate the results of these two surveys
with existing work in order to produce a short list of the best prospects for
drilling which, subject to rig availability and discussions with potential
farminees, is likely to commence in 2008.
Subsequent to year end, FOGL advised that it is currently in advanced
discussions which may or may not lead to a major resources company farming in to
certain of its assets.
At a FOGL share price of £1.60 (as at 25 September 2007), Global's shareholding
is valued at A$47.8 million. The carrying value of Global's shareholding
recorded in the financial statements at 30 June 2007 was A$24.3 million (based
on the FOGL share price at 30 June 2007 of £0.80).
Malta Exploration Study Agreement Area 3 - Blocks 4 & 5 (Global 80%)
During the financial year, RWE Dea AG ('RWE'), as operator, obtained the
services of seismic company Fugro who recorded 852km of new 2D seismic lines in
November 2006. This work, together with reprocessing of other seismic surveys in
the Study Area, and the acquisition of new magnetic and gravity data has
satisfied the Malta Government's Study Agreement work commitment.
RWE, which has farmed into Global's interest in the Exploration Study Agreement
covering Blocks 4 & 5, has the right to earn up to a total 70% interest if the
parties enter into a PSC with the Malta Government and RWE commits to the
drilling of a well following the completion of the seismic programme phase.
When this work is complete, the Joint Venture (RWE and Global) will make a
decision as to whether to enter a Production Sharing Contract with the Malta
Government which is likely to involve a well commitment. Global's 30% share
(including 3% on behalf of a UK marketing agency that assisted Global in the
farm-in process) of the costs of such a well would be fully carried by RWE.
RWE is currently in discussion with the Malta Government to confirm a revised
time frame for the Exploration Study Agreement dependent upon the timing of
obtaining a specialised vessel and carrying out a microbial/geochemical
investigation on sea bottom samples during 2007.
At the Company's AGM on 17 November 2006 shareholders approved an extension of
time to 30 June 2008 for the issue to the related party vendors of Astral
Petroleum Limited their share of an additional four million fully paid ordinary
shares in the Company if the Company achieves an unconditional commitment by RWE
to drill a well in respect of the Malta Exploration Study Agreement.
Ireland Licence Option 03/3 (Global 100%)
The Company's campaign to introduce a new company to this project has not been
successful. Discussions with the Petroleum Affairs Division of the Ireland
Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources indicated that no
further extensions to the option deadline of 31 December 2006 would be available
and that the only route available to Global was to enter a licence with a well
commitment. As a farminee was not found to share the risk and the cost of such
well by the end of calendar year 2006, the Licence Option has now terminated.
The carrying value of the Company's exploration expenditure in relation to
Ireland of $769,339 was written-off during the financial year.
Significant Changes in the State of Affairs
Other than as outlined in the Review of Operations and Activities above, the
following significant changes in the state of affairs of the Consolidated Entity
occurred during the year:
• Effective 2 April 2007, Dr John Armstrong resigned from the Board and Mr
Ian Middlemas was appointed a Non-Executive Director of the Company. Mr Mark
Savage was appointed Chairman of the Company.
Significant Post Balance Date EvenTS
The consolidated entity's interest in Falkland Oil & Gas Limited is recorded at
fair value, based on current market value at year end. The carrying value of
Global's shareholding recorded in the financial statements at 30 June 2007 was
A$24.3 million (based on the FOGL share price at 30 June 2007 of £0.80). At a
FOGL share price of £1.60 (as at 25 September 2007), Global's shareholding is
valued at A$47.8 million.
Other than as outlined above, as at the date of this report there are no matters
or circumstances, which have arisen since 30 June 2007 that have significantly
affected or may significantly affect:
(a) the operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2007 of the
Consolidated Entity;
(b) the results of those operations, in financials years subsequent to 30 June
2007 of the Consolidated Entity; or
(c) the state of affairs, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2007 of the
Consolidated Entity.
Environmental Regulation and Performance
The Consolidated Entity's operations are subject to various environmental laws
and regulations under the relevant government's legislation. Full compliance
with these laws and regulations is regarded as a minimum standard for all
operations to achieve.
Instances of environmental non-compliance by an operation are identified either
by external compliance audits or inspections by relevant government authorities.
There have been no significant known breaches by the Consolidated Entity during
the financial year.
Likely Developments and Expected Results
It is the Board's current intention that the Consolidated Entity will focus on
maximising the value of its oil and gas exploration assets in Kenya and Malta,
by conducting further exploration activities on these projects and continuing to
examine new opportunities in mineral exploration, particularly in the oil and
gas sector.
All of these activities are inherently risky and the Board is unable to provide
certainty that any or all of these activities will be able to be achieved. In
the opinion of the Directors, any further disclosure of information regarding
likely developments in the operations of the Consolidated Entity and the
expected results of these operations in subsequent financial years may prejudice
the interests of the Company and accordingly, has not been disclosed.
