“We have made significant progress over the last year, having secured financing … which will allow us to capitalise on the significant production opportunity that our offshore Nigerian asset represents. With the potential for significant near-term production at OPL 226 … scheduled to commence drilling by mid-2019 ... we enter 2019 with renewed optimism.”

(Arthur Millholland, CEO) RNS on 28.1.19 re. 2018 Year-end Update and Outlook for 2019

COPL / Shoreline Joint Venture

Page 9: Investor Summary - Canadian Overseas Petroleum Ltd · 2019-12-20 · • Operations Director at Ikonscience, a niche rock physics softwarecompany Nick Pillar Dr. Richard Mays •

Structure• COPL has a JV partnership with Shoreline Energy International Ltd (“Shoreline”), a conglomerate with

interests across sub-Saharan Africa including interests in oil & gas and power generation• JV will acquire assets through a SPV registered in Bermuda, called Shoreline CanOverseas Petroleum

Development Corporation Limited (“ShoreCan”)• COPL and Shoreline each hold a 50% interest in ShoreCan• Shoreline’s interest in OML 30 in Nigeria are outside of the JV

Rationale & Strategy • Indigenous within Nigeria• JV allows COPL to progress its stated strategy, offering exposure to a greater spread of highly value

accretive assets and opportunities, while minimising risk and capital requirements for shareholders• ShoreCan’s activities can be financed by its shareholders directly, or ShoreCan can access capital

through the private equity markets directly.• JV will acquire upstream oil & gas exploration, development and producing assets in sub-Saharan

Africa, as well as gas to power projects to monetize hereto stranded natural gas

Assets• To date, ShoreCan has taken positions in Nigeria and Mozambique, and continues to evaluate a variety

of assets in Nigeria, Equatorial Guinea, Angola, Gabon and Ghana, amongst other countries

• ShoreCan controls EEPLN through 3 seats on a 5 member Board of Directors• Pre acquisition the Essar Group has invested c.US$62.5m in EEPLN to date

OPL 226 is a multiplay potential and could generate c.60,000 bpd• OPL 226 is located 50km offshore in the central delta area in 160 feet of average water depth• Five wells have been drilled with 3 oil and gas discoveries and 2 gas discoveries• OPL 226 surrounds OML 83 hosting the Anyala Field which is predominantly gas with some

independent oil zones at the crest of a large anticlinal structure • The block has a large historic 2D seismic data base as well as two 3D seismic surveys acquired

Essar Nigeria OPL 226 (COPL net 40%)

• ShoreCan (COPL) Technical Team oversee and manage the forward operations• Nigerian regulations require local involvement in front line operations.

Numerous well managed firms offer such services• ShoreCan has presented the regulator, NNPC/NAPIMS, a provisional work program

and budget• The basis of the work program is to drill an appraisal well to the 2001 NOA-1 oil

discovery operated by NEXEN• NOA-1 hosts the 16 mmbbls of 2C resources as determined by NI 51-101

compliant NSAI report• Location of the appraisal well will be up structure of the NOA-1 well on the SE

plunging limb of the Anyala Anticline• ShoreCan has proposed to NNPC/NAPIMS that the well be utilized as an Early

Production Scheme under their policy to allow indigenous firms early cash flow before full development. This would be the first phase of a contemplated 60,000 bbl/d development in the NOA area

• The balance of the Block holds significant exploration upside

Geology• A large growth fault-controlled structural complex

• Potential of hydrocarbons in multiple zones

• Petroleum trap features along the rollover anticlines and extensive “foot wall traps” proven by

the Noa-1 discovery

• Several appraisal/development wells to the proven Anyala anticline already identified

Detailed Technical Work• Used Extended Elastic Impedance (EEI)technology

and Joint Impedance – Facies Inversion (Ji-Fi)- More advanced than traditional AVO

technology - Allows different aspects of the rock, whether

this be rock type (lithology), porosity, fluid content, saturation to be seen

• Work has demonstrated that the block holds a number of structural and stratigraphic features

that tie in with EEI and Ji-Fi anomalies associated with “sand” lithology, and with “oil” fluid content

This document is given in conjunction with an oral presentation and should not be taken out ofcontext.

In this presentation, the Company has provided information with respect to certain resourceinformation that is based on oil discovery information for lands surrounding its properties whichis "analogous information" as defined applicable securities laws. This analogous information isderived from publicly available information sources which the Company believes arepredominantly independent in nature. However, the Company cannot guarantee that suchinformation was independently prepared. In addition, some of this data may not have beenprepared by qualified reserves evaluators or auditors and the preparation of any estimates maynot be in strict accordance with Canadian Oil & Gas Evaluation Handbook. Regardless, estimatesby engineering and geo-technical practitioners may vary and the differences may be significant.The Company believes that the provision of this analogous information is relevant to theCompany's activities, given its acreage position and operations (either ongoing or planned) in thearea in question, however, readers are cautioned that there is no certainty that any of thedevelopment on the Company's properties will be successful to the extent in which operationson the lands in which the analogous information is derived from were successful, or at all.

Barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") amounts may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. ABOE conversion ratio has been calculated using a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet ofnatural gas to one barrel. This conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to onebarrel is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burnertip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

In this presentation, the Company has referred to OOIP, meaning original oil in place and originalgas in place, respectively, which are hereinafter collectively called "discovered petroleuminitially-in-place". Discovered petroleum initially-in-place is the quantity of petroleum that isestimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations prior to production. Therecoverable portion of discovered petroleum-in-place includes production, reserves andcontingent resources; the remainder is unrecoverable. A recovery project cannot be defined forthese volumes of discovered petroleum initially-in-place at this time. There is no certainty that itwill be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources. Additionally, in respect ofthe prospective resources disclosed in this presentation, there is no certainty that any portion ofthe resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commerciallyviable to produce any portion of the resources.

By attending this presentation and/or accepting a copy of this document and/or any relatedmaterials, you agree to be bound by the foregoing provisions, limitations and conditions and, inparticular, you have represented, warranted and undertaken that: (i) you have read and agree tocomply with the contents of this disclaimer including, without limitation the obligation to keepthe information given at the presentation and this document and its contents confidential; and(ii) you will not at any time have any discussion, correspondence or contact concerning theinformation given at the presentation and/or in this document with any of the directors oremployees of the Company or its subsidiaries nor with any of its suppliers, or any governmentalor regulatory body without the prior written consent of the Company.
