Introduction

▪ The South Disouq block is located in the central Nile Delta region onshore

Egypt. SDX acquired the South Disouq concession in 2013 and farmed-out

45% to IPR Energy in 2014. SDX currently holds 55% and continues to be the

block operator.

▪ Two fields have been discovered within the Concession, South Disouq field

(2017) and Ibn Yunus (2018)

Drilling History:

▪ SD-1X 2017: Abu Madi gas discovery

▪ Ibn Yunus-1X 2018: Kafr El Sheikh gas discovery

▪ Kelvin-1X 2018: Dry Abu Madi stratigraphic trap

▪ SD-3X 2018: Abu Madi appraisal+ Kafr El Sheikh

Seismic Line and Type Well Log

Source: SDX

▪ The seismic data across South Disouq is of reasonable quality allowing

confident interpretation of the Base Kafr El Sheikh Reservoir.

▪ The Abu Madi Reservoirs are not directly interpreted from seismic but are

stacked down from the Base Kafr El Sheikh, using the available well tops.

Workflow Summary

▪ GCA calculated GRV using Petrel’s map based volumetric tool and matched

the GRVs presented by SDX within less than 10%.

▪ GCA checked SDX’s petrophysical interpretation and calculated average

reservoir parameters across each of the reservoir zones, using the latest well

tops.

▪ The GRV’s and petrophysical parameters were input into a Monte Carlo

Simulation (Crystal Ball), with an appropriate range of uncertainty applied to

low and high case input parameters.

▪ GCA’s GIIP estimates for each reservoir are summarised in the following

slides.

Geophysical Review

▪ GCA has reviewed the geophysical

interpretation of SDX

▪ Top and Base reservoir are picked at

zero crossings, which are tied to well.

GCA suggests this is not necessarily

the best geophysical solution, but

errors/uncertainties are likely small

▪ There is strong seismic attribute

definition of the “core area” from both

far stack and gradient volumes

▪ For the “outer area”, horizon definition

is much more tentative and there is

uncertainty in sandstone pinchout, and

possible fault, definition

▪ GCA recommends that the “outer area”

only be considered in the High Case

and restricted to areas where there is

seismic attribute support.

• GRV are derived from GCA interpretation of SDX geophysical attributes

• NTG is derived from a volume weighted average of those estimated by SDX for the “core” and “outer” areas

• All other parameters are as defined by SDX

• In the Monte Carlo Analysis, a negative correlation of -0.75 between NTG and GRV is introduced to allow for the apparent better reservoir quality interpreted for the “core area”

Recovery Factors

▪ First step was to establish a range of Recovery Factors (RF) for the 5 reservoirs under evaluation

▪ The range of RFs established are shown in table below with some reasoning behind each choice

▪ In general, as this is a new development with only a few weeks production data, the range of RF

has to be fairly wide

▪ The maximum RF possible is driven by lowest expected manifold pressure, 650 psig, and the

hydrostatic head of gas at that pressure, leading to an absolute lowest possible abandonment

pressure;

– 77% for South Disouq

– 75% for Ibn Yunus

Recovery Factors Low Best High Comment

South Disouq KES 65% 70% 77% Possible basal water

South Disouq AM I 65% 75% 77% Possible edge aquifer in thin reservoir unit

South Disouq AM II 30% 40% 50%Small gas column with large basal water

column, high Kv/Kh

South Disouq AM III 55% 70% 77%Basal water confirmed from logs, but low

Kv/Kh may hold back water

Ibn Yunus 60% 70% 75%Edge aquifer & possibly low connectivity

from PTA

Technically Recoverable Resources (TRR)

derived by applying each RF to the corresponding Low, Best and High GIIP

estimates.

Production Forecasting

▪ A single GAP model was provided by SDX containing well models and reservoir models

for South Disouq and Ibn Yunus

▪ From this single model, GCA created three versions to generate 1P, 2P and 3P

production forecasts

▪ The GIIP values for each of the 5 reservoirs in each of the three cases were updated

with GCA’s estimates.

▪ The production profile from each reservoir for each case is constrained by the TRR

established earlier.

▪ The Down Time level proposed by SDX is 5%, this is reasonable for Best and High

cases, but for the Low case a more pessimistic 15% was used, given there is no track

record yet.

▪ Manifold pressure at start up is 1,200 psig. With compression scheduled for installation

by 2021, the manifold pressure is reduced to 650 psig.

CGR

▪ Initial CGR levels for the two main fields were provided by SDX.

▪ Given that these reservoirs are gas condensate reservoirs, the CGR will

fall over time.

▪ Given the small values involved, a simple approach was taken to replicate

a declining CGR – GCA assumed the initial CGR is maintained for ~50% of the production profile to reflect being

above the dew point

– For the remaining 50% of the profile, the CGR is stepped down until it reaches a value of 3

stb/MMscf for Ibn Yunus and 1 stb/MMscf/d for South Disouq.

Reserves and Resources

In the preparation of this letter, GCA has used definitions contained within the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (COGEH) and National Instrument (NI) 51-

101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities as well as the Petroleum Resources Management System published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers

(SPE), the World Petroleum Council (WPC), the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) and the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (SPEE), the

Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG), the Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts (SPWLA), and the European Association of Geoscientists and

Engineers (EAGE) in June 2018, referred to as the SPE PRMS.

Under PRMS, Reserves are those quantities of petroleum that are anticipated to be commercially recoverable by application of development projects to known

accumulations from a given date forward under defined conditions. Reserves must satisfy four criteria: discovered, recoverable, commercial and remaining (as of the

evaluation’s effective date) based on the development project(s) applied.

Under COGEH, Reserves are estimated quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, as of a given

date, based on (a) analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical, and engineering data; (b) the use of established technology; and (c) specified economic conditions,

which are generally accepted as being reasonable and shall be disclosed.

Reserves are further categorized in accordance with the level of certainty associated with the estimates and may be sub-classified based on project maturity and/or

characterized by development and production status. All categories of reserves volumes quoted herein have been derived within the context of an economic limit test

(ELT) assessment (pre-tax and exclusive of accumulated depreciation amounts) prior to any net present value (NPV) analysis.

Reserves net to SDX are quoted as Net Entitlement volumes, reflecting the terms of the applicable Production Sharing Contract (PSC).

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating reserves and resources, and in projecting future production, development expenditures, operating expenses

and cash flows. Oil and gas reserve engineering and resource assessment must be recognized as a subjective process of estimating subsurface accumulations of oil

and gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. Estimates of oil and gas reserves or resources prepared by other parties may differ, perhaps materially, from those

contained within this report. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of the available data and of engineering and geological interpretation.

Results of drilling, testing and production that post-date the preparation of the estimates may justify revisions, some or all of which may be material. Accordingly,

reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered, and the timing and cost of those volumes that are recovered may

vary from that assumed.

Oil and condensate volumes appearing in this report have been quoted at stock tank conditions. Typically these volumes have been referred to in million barrel

increments (MMstb). Natural gas volumes have been quoted in billions of standard cubic feet (Bscf) and are volumes of sales gas, after an allocation has been made

for fuel and process shrinkage losses. Standard conditions are defined as 14.696 psia and 60o Fahrenheit.

GCA prepared an independent assessment of the reserves based on data and interpretations provided by the Client. It is GCA’s opinion that the estimates of total

remaining recoverable hydrocarbon liquid and gas volumes are, in the aggregate, reasonable and the reserves and resources classification and categorization is

appropriate and consistent with the definitions and guidelines for reserves and resources.
