OPERATIONS REVIEW

OVERVIEW

The Company's primary objective is to maximise shareholder value from its principal asset in the Cambay Basin, located onshore Gujarat State in India, whilst also continuing to review other opportunities to create value by adding new assets to the Company's portfolio.

To that end, Oilex continues to evaluate and implement a range of technical programme options to progress the main objective of accessing the significant gas resource present in siltstones in the EP-IV reservoir. North American unconventional drilling, completion and stimulation technologies have been applied by the Joint Venture over the last six years with positive but commercially modest results and work is underway to optimise results for future work programmes. The current technical work programmes are focused on:

-- Extracting geological and engineering information from core data analysis with associated studies to match advanced North American drilling and completion technologies with the local basin geology of the EP-IV;

-- The preparation of the application for an extension of the Cambay PSC (incorporating a proposed Field Development Program). The application for an extension of the PSC term beyond September 2019 is required to be lodged by September 2017; and

   --        Resolution of outstanding cash calls payable by the Company's Joint Venture partner GSPC. 

HEALTH, SAFETY, SECURITY AND ENVIRONMENT

No lost time incidents recorded during the quarter.

CAMBAY FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Oilex: Operator and 45% interest)

During the quarter gas production re-started from the C-77H well at the Cambay Field. Production from the C-77H well averaged 209 mscfd with 13.8 bpd associated liquids (49.8 boepd; Oilex net 22.4 boepd) during the quarter. The current gas sales agreements were renegotiated to take any additional produced volumes as and when required. The Company plans to cycle production between C-77 and C-73 as part of its reservoir management.

The preparation of the Field Development Plan, in support of the application for an extension of the PSC, is in its final stages. The application for an extension of the PSC term beyond September 2019 is required to be lodged by September 2017.

During the March 2017 quarter, historical core samples from C-23z were provided to Schlumberger for detailed analysis and testing with completion of the work and delivery of results anticipated shortly. Baker Hughes is currently completing an initial desk study on EP-IV wells in the PSC in advance of undertaking evaluation work on the geomechanical model and to provide direction on the optimal stimulation methodologies for future drilling and testing. The results of the evaluation work by Baker Hughes are anticipated in August.

The Company has a significant gas resource at the Cambay PSC in the EP-IV tight siltstones that requires drilling optimisation and stimulation technologies to achieve commercial flow rates. The analysis of the core from C-23z is essential in the planning and design of future wells and the stimulation process at the Cambay PSC. Both Schlumberger and Baker Hughes are global leaders in the stimulation of tight gas reservoirs.

The recent field programme involving the workover of two older wells C-70 and C-23z to test potential production flow rates from the OS-II reservoir was completed in June. The results of these wells did not return commercial volumes of oil and or gas. The Company is considering whether further stimulation is warranted. The workovers targeted potential production from the OS-II reservoir whilst the Company's primary objective remains the development of the potential of the EP-IV reservoir.

The Company is currently in discussions with several potential partners who are undertaking data room reviews of the EP-IV tight gas potential at Cambay. Should any change in the structure of the joint venture eventuate, a restructure of the Company's ongoing funding commitment to the Cambay Project may ensue.

In December 2016, Oilex participated in a formal tender process initiated by Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Limited (GSPC), its Joint Venture partner, by submitting a conditional offer for a possible additional 55% interest in the Cambay PSC (Cambay). The Company has received informal advice that the sale process is unlikely to proceed in the near term.

Joint Venture Management

During the quarter the Company made material progress in the resolution of the outstanding cash calls owing to the Cambay Joint Venture by GSPC. The Cambay joint venture have received the equivalent of US$1.4 million in regards to outstanding cash calls from its joint venture partner.

As at 30 June 2017, gross unpaid cash calls issued to GSPC totalled approximately US$5.5 million. The Company continues to maintain a constructive dialogue with its joint venture partner to resolve the remaining outstanding cash call balances. Oilex as Operator, has continued to bear the ongoing costs of the Joint Venture. It is anticipated that GSPC will commence regular contributions to ongoing operating cash calls going forward.

BHANDUT FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Oilex: Operator and 40% interest)

Oilex holds a 40% equity in the Bhandut Field, with GSPC holding the remaining participating interest. Previous drilling in the Bhandut Field intersected a number of hydrocarbon zones, some of which have been produced and are now shut-in.

During the June 2017 quarter production recommenced from the Bhandut Field having previously ceased on 6 October 2016. Production from the Bhandut-3 well averaged 148 mscfd (25.2 boepd; Oilex net 10.2 boepd) during the quarter. In June 2017, the Bhandut-3 well was shut-in following increased water production.

The preparation of the Field Development Plan, in support of the application for an extension of the PSC, is underway. The application for an extension of the PSC term beyond September 2019 is required to be lodged by late September 2017.

The field has ongoing production and exploration potential, coupled with existing production facilities. The Company is currently in discussion with several parties, seeking expressions of interest in a possible sale of its participating interest in the PSC.

During the quarter Oilex received gross US$109,000 from GSPC against outstanding cash calls for Bhandut.

At the end of the quarter, total unpaid cash calls by GSPC had been reduced to US$63,000 (gross).

Sabarmati FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Relinquished)

During the current quarter, Oilex received gross US$23,000 owing by the Joint Venture partner, GSPC.

The Sabarmati PSC was relinquished in 2016.

WALLAL GRABEN, WESTERN AUSTRALIA (CANNING BASIN)

(Oilex: Operator and 100% interest)

The Wallal Graben asset is located adjacent to the Pilbara, a global resource centre for iron ore and LNG in Western Australia.

The Wallal Graben blocks are currently under application with the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP). They are frontier exploration blocks that represent a potential low cost entry to an underexplored area.

Final award of the blocks requires signing of Heritage Agreements with the Nyangumarta and Njamal People and is linked to a request to the DMP that all three blocks be awarded simultaneously. Consultations on the Heritage Agreements are nearly complete following which it is anticipated that the DMP will make an offer to grant a Petroleum Exploration Permit for each of the three blocks to Oilex for its final acceptance. Oilex can review its interest in pursuing these applications at any time.

JPDA 06-103, TIMOR SEA

(Oilex: Operator and 10% interest)

Oilex as operator, and on behalf of the JPDA 06-103 Joint Venture participants, continues to seek a resolution to the dispute with Autoridade Nacional do Petroleo e Minerais (ANPM) in relation to matters associated with the termination of JPDA 06-103 PSC. In July 2015, the ANPM rejected the Joint Venture request to terminate the PSC by mutual agreement in good standing and without penalty, and the ANPM sought to impose a penalty of approximately US$17 million upon the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture undertook significantly more exploration expenditure than required during the PSC term and believes the excess was not properly accounted for in accordance with the terms of the PSC.

The Joint Venture continues its discussions with the ANPM and remains hopeful an amicable settlement will be reached. If the parties are unable to reach an amicable settlement, any party may refer the matter to arbitration. If this occurs, the obligations and liabilities of the Joint Venture participants under the PSC are joint and several, with parent company guarantees provided by all Joint Venture participants. Oilex has a 10% participating interest in the Joint Venture.

WEST KAMPAR PSC, CENTRAL SUMATRA, INDONESIA

(Oilex: 45% interest and further 22.5% secured (1) )

At the end of 2016 the Indonesian Operator applied to the Indonesian courts for a debt payment obligation suspension. This was denied and the operating company, PT Sumatera Persada Energi (SPE) was declared bankrupt. A number of creditors meetings were held during the quarter. Oilex has instructed its Indonesian based lawyers to pursue its claim in the courts covering refund of monies provided by Oilex to the Operator, accrued interest, arbitration and legal costs and loss of profits.

During the March 2017 quarter, Oilex received confirmation from the Indonesian Government regulator, SKK Migas that Oilex continues to retain a 45% participating interest in the PSC. In the absence of a commercial settlement, the Company intends to preserve its rights. Oilex continues to pursue enforcement of the Arbitration Award and a commercial settlement.

CORPORATE

At the end of the quarter Oilex retained cash resources of $3.2 million.

New Non-Executive Director Appointed

During the quarter the Company appointed Mr Paul Haywood as a Non-Executive Director. Mr Haywood has a wealth of experience in capital markets, investment advisory, corporate affairs and the operational management of early stage and growth companies including six years in the Middle East. More recently, Mr Haywood has held senior management positions with UK and Australian public companies in the natural resource and energy sectors, with International experience in the UK, Middle East and Eurasia.

                 likely to be recovered than Proved Reserves 
                 but more certain to be recovered than 
                 Possible Reserves. 
 
                 Possible Reserves are those additional 
                 reserves which analysis of geoscience 
                 and engineering data indicate are less 
                 likely to be recoverable than Probable 
                 Reserves. 
 
                 Reserves are designated as 1P (Proved), 
                 2P (Proved plus Probable) and 3P (Proved 
                 plus Probable plus Possible).
