HIGHLIGHTS
Trading
for 2005 was at record levels, with a strong production
performance combining with continuing favorable
oil and gas pricing. The first of these wells,
Schooner-10, was spudded on November 24, 2005 and
is expected to be completed
in February. The Production and Development successes in the Group's
African assets
continue to contribute to strong production growth. These facilities will be installed
in two phases, concluding in
September 2006. Drilling is expected to commence with a shallow water
jack-up
rig and a tender assisted semi-submersible rig in late 3Q 2006.

Statement, all costs relating to pre-license costs

differ materially from the charge of 5.5%) in block 44/23b completed drilling

The
success of this well gives a significant boost to the exploration
potential of the adjacent blocks
where numerous further prospects have been
identified, four of which will be drilled in 2006. The
well was unsuccessful as the results
indicated likely compartmentalization of the structure which
would make
development sub-commercial.

Planned capital investment during 2006 is in the order of 280 million

and Bangladesh with the balance focused
on exploration activities. Current gross field production is 60,000

on stream. Engineering work at the export terminal was
completed at year-end to facilitate the blending
and export of M'Boundi crude
with the higher quality N'Kossa blend, thus significantly improving
per barrel
realizations. The further expansion of the production facilities to 90,000
