PA Resources’ Production Report for May 2012

Average production of oil per day*

* Production based on Working Interest, which is PA Resources’ share of the total gross production of the oil fields before deduction of royalty and taxes etc. Production figures are preliminary.

• The Aseng Field in Equatorial Guinea continued to produce at a level above 60,000 barrels per day (approximately 3,500 barrels per day net to PA Resources).

• The planned shutdown for a week for maintenance work on the Azurite Field in the Republic of Congo was successfully performed at the end of May. Production has in early June returned to its former levels.
  The operator of the field is also evaluating a number of remedial options to replace or reinstate the failed production well (as earlier communicated). However there is currently no forward plan agreed by the partners in the field.

• The three small onshore fields Tamesmida, Douleb and Semmama in Tunisia have been shut-in due to social instability in the area. Negotiations with local authorities are conducted by the operator Serept, to whom PA Resources has outsourced the operatorship. Before the shut-ins, the fields were together producing approximately 500 barrels per day.
