Global Relevance

Atlantic and Asian markets remain distinct

• US policymakers view LNG export as counter productive to energy independence goals

• Transportation fuel still dependent on imported oil

• DoE has only licensed 1 company to export LNG – slow supply responsiveness

• Asia Pacific gas demand to grow by 150% by 2030 • Australia poised to capitalise with significant LNG export

infrastructure approved and under construction pp• LNG export commitments absorbing domestic supply• World’s major oil companies focussing investment in

Australia• Armour has one of the largest acreage positions in the g g p

region and is strategically located on the coast

Why Shale Gas?

►Shale gas has thicker reservoirs •Coal 5-10m compared to shales 150m

E

►Early peak gas flows

►Early payback and strong returns

►Armour project areas are sparsely populated with no agriculture
