Development of the Contingent Resources in the new discoveries will be contingent on the on-going appraisal programme and also a work programme and budget to access these resources.

The Company's 2017 and 2016 year-end Reserves reports were prepared by ERC Equipoise Limited ("ERCE") and DeGolyer and MacNaughton Canada Limited ("DMCL") respectively, as independent qualified Reserves evaluators. ERCE were engaged to prepare the 2017 year-end Reserves report following the closure of DMCL's office in Calgary.

The audits of the Reserves in Oman has been conducted using 2007 Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS), sponsored by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), World Petroleum Council (WPC), American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) and Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (SPEE).
