Jadestone Energy plc Provides Stag Field Update Jadestone Energy plc provided the following update in relation to the impact of Cyclone Narelle on the Stag field offshore Australia. In line with Jadestone's standard operating procedures, a shut down of the Stag facilities commenced on 23 March and the platform was demobilized due to the projected path of Cyclone Narelle, which developed into a Category 5 Storm with sustained wind speeds well in excess of 200 km/hr. After returning to the facilities on 28 March, storm related damage was observed on the Stag platform and at the offloading facilities. The field's export lines were cleared of hydrocarbons prior to shut-in and there was no release of hydrocarbons to the environment. The Australian offshore upstream regulator, NOPSEMA, was notified. Jadestone is currently assessing the damage to the Stag facilities, while also developing repair plans and a schedule for the resumption of production. The Group has appropriate insurance in place, for both physical damage and loss of production income and is working with insurers through the standard claims process. Based on information currently available, Jadestone does not expect this incident to have a material financial impact on the Group's current year or longer-term cashflow projections. Prior to shutdown, the field was producing approximately 2,000 bbls/d. The Company will provide a further update in due course. Annonce • Feb 26
Jadestone Energy plc Provides Production Guidance for the Full Year 2026 Jadestone Energy plc provided Production Guidance for the Full Year 2026. For the year, production guidance is set at 18,000 boe/d - 21,000 boe/d. Natural portfolio decline is expected to be offset by the positive impact of the PM323 infill drilling campaign, offshore Malaysia, which is due to commence near the end of first quarter of 2026 with first oil expected around mid-year. The Skua-10ST infill well at Montara (previously planned for 2026) has been deferred due to oil price volatility and to allow for the integration of further technical and planning studies following the results of the Skua-11ST well drilled in 2025. 2026 production guidance also reflects ~55 days planned downtime at CWLH for the maintenance related dry-docking of the Okha FPSO.

Jadestone Energy plc Provides Update on the Akatara Gas Development Project Onshore Indonesia Jadestone Energy plc provided the following update on the Akatara gas development project onshore Indonesia. As previously reported, gas sales from the Akatara field commenced on 31 July 2024 at an initial rate of c.4 mmscfd. Since then, the gas plant has been progressively made operational and raw gas production into the Akatara Gas Processing Facility ("AGPF") has been steadily increased to 20 mmscfd, resulting in current gas sales in the range of 11-14 mmscfd. The AGPF's export compressors, which pressurise the sales gas for export into the regional gas transportation pipeline system, require further commissioning work, which will allow the plant to achieve the full raw gas volume of c.25mmscfd and deliver the sales gas daily contract quantity ("DCQ") of c.20 mmscfd, as specified in the Akatara gas sales agreement. This activity is expected to complete this month, with any associated costs remaining the responsibility of the main contractor and equipment vendor. Annonce • Jul 31
Jadestone Energy plc Provides Update on the Akatara Gas Development Project Onshore Indonesia Jadestone Energy plc provided the following update on the Akatara gas development project onshore Indonesia. Since 22 June 2024, when the Company announced mechanical completion of the Akatara Gas Processing Facility (the "Facility") and the introduction of reservoir gas into the Facility, raw gas production has ranged between 3-8 mmscfd, allowing for commissioning of the Facility's systems and the start of condensate production, which has totalled c.4,700 bbls to date. On 31 July 2024, following successful packing of the 17km export pipeline from the Akatara field, commercial gas sales into the regional trunkline in Sumatra commenced at a rate of c.4 mmscfd, or approximately 20% of the daily contracted quantity ("DCQ") under the Akatara gas sales agreement. LPG production is expected to start imminently. Jadestone will issue a further announcement once full DCQ (c.20 mmscfd) sales gas production is achieved, which is expected within the next two weeks.

The lower end of the range also incorporates a conservative assumption on Akatara production in the early stages of the processing facility's operating life, and a range of potential downside scenarios across the portfolio.

Jadestone Energy plc Provides Production Guidance for the Year 2024 Jadestone Energy plc provided production guidance for the year 2024. For the period, production guidance range is narrowed from 20-23,000 boe/d to 20-22,000 boe/d. The change to the upper end of guidance reflects first quarter Group production performance, which was impacted by both planned and unplanned downtime across the portfolio. Current internal forecasts point to an outcome at the lower end of the updated guidance range, based on first commercial gas sales from Akatara in June 2024, albeit there remains a wide range of possible outcomes, principally based on the timing and nature of Akatara's ramp up, as well as initiatives underway to optimise production at the Group's current producing assets.

Carlyle Reportedly Lines Up for Woodside's Macedon Project Private equity firms The Carlyle Group Inc. (NasdaqGS:CG), Hibiscus Petroleum Berhad (KLSE:HIBISCS) and Jadestone Energy plc (AIM:JSE) are believed to be the final contenders in the race to buy Woodside Energy Group Ltd. (ASX:WDS)'s Macedon oil and gas assets in Western Australia. Expectations are that the Macedon project could be worth about $500m ($770m). Woodside last year hired Morgan Stanley to sell Macedon and its other project, Pyrenees, but Pyrenees has not attracted buyer interest, sources say. The Pyrenees oil and gas field is a mature asset with 24 wells and has rehabilitation costs of about $1bn. Now the question is whether Woodside proceeds with the sale of just the one asset, or insists on any suitor buying both. And if it cannot find one to take both Pyrenees and Macedon, does it shelve the sale process. It's a process that slipped into the background last year when Woodside opted to sell assets in a deal to buy Australian rival Santos. Now the Santos talks have ended with both parties unable to reach an agreement - a result largely expected by industry experts because of price expectations, different shareholder requirements and a lack of synergies - other asset sales and acquisitions are again a topic of discussion for both Woodside and Santos. Santos boss Kevin Gallagher is likely to now assess options to unlock value for the company, such as with asset sales or demergers, but it's too early to say what his focus will be. Woodside has always indicated it is keen on acquisition opportunities offshore, such as the Gulf of Mexico, and some believe it is under pressure to find new earning streams as other projects come to an end. Jadestone Energy, a Singapore-based upstream oil and gas development and production company focused on the Asia Pacific region, already has assets in Australia, so it is no stranger to this market, and neither is Carlyle. It is believed that the sale process is now in the second round after first round bids were received last year. Woodside has a 71.4% interest in the Macedon field and a 62% holding in Pyrenees, which it operates. The assets will sustain production into the mid-2030s. Annonce • Jan 31

Strike Energy Reportedly Out of Race for Oil, Gas Assets The $1 billion West Australian gas producer Strike Energy Limited (ASX:STX) is understood have pulled out of the race to buy Woodside Energy Group Ltd. (ASX:WDS)'s $500 million ($768 million)-plus Pyrenees and Macedon oil and gas projects. The sale process is proving to be slow moving for the suitors that remain in the race, with some questioning whether it will drag out into the new year. It is understood Strike was keen to buy the Macedon project but was not in a position to also take on Pyrenees. The sale process is being run by Morgan Stanley. Woodside inherited the two gas facilities in WA's Carnarvon Basin through its acquisition of BHP's petroleum business last year. First-round bids were received last month, but the offers were not conforming bids, with most suitors only vying for the more popular Macedon asset. DataRoom understands that parties that have been in the data room are The Carlyle Group Inc. (NasdaqGS:CG), Cooper Energy Limited (ASX:COE), the Chris Ellison-backed Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN), billionaire Gina Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd, Carnarvon Energy Limited (ASX:CVN), Strike Energy Limited (ASX:STX), Jadestone Energy plc (AIM:JSE) and Questus Energy LLC. Beach Energy was not thought to have put forward a bid because it currently has an Interim Chief Executive running the company, Bruce Clement. Sources believe that Beach, which is 30% controlled by the interests of billionaire Kerry Stokes and now chaired by his son Ryan on an interim basis, is the logical candidate to buy the assets.

CPC Reportedly Set for Dorado Stake CPC Corporation, Taiwan is being tipped as the most likely buyer of an additional stake in the Dorado oil and gas project off the coast of Western Australia. Owner Santos Limited (ASX:STO) is understood to have had four or five parties in a data room, in a process run by investment bank Goldman Sachs. Among them are believed to be Kufpec (Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C.) and at least one Japanese suitor, with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (TSE:8031) and Mitsubishi Corporation (TSE:8058) likely candidates. Other likely parties are Tokyo Gas Co.,Ltd. (TSE:9531), Osaka Gas Co., Ltd. (TSE:9532) and Jadestone Energy plc (AIM:JSE). But the latest chatter in the market is that Santos is pinning its hopes on CPC investing further. CPC recently finalised a deal with Carnarvon, the other owner of the project, to buy a 10% interest in Dorado and its Pavo project for an all-up payment of $146 million. Santos has an 80% interest in Dorado and the thinking in the market is that it remains keen to reduce that exposure to about 60%. Azure Capital-advised Carnarvon Energy was the only other holder before CPC bought in. Dorado, once owned by Woodside Petroleum and later Quadrant Energy before it was purchased by Santos, is an integrated oil and gas project that will be developed in two phases. It is located in the Bedout sub-basin, about 140km off the coast of WA's Port Hedland. Annonce • Aug 23

With regard to the disclosures in the 10 August 2023 announcement on the Company's reserve-based loan, Jadestone currently does not expect production at Montara to be shut in for more than 60 days, subject to ongoing inspections, identifying the cause of the 4S/5C defect and implementing preventative measures. A further update on the progress of Montara activities will be provided during the week commencing 28 August 2023.
