Notes to editors

 

Block Energy plc is an AIM-quoted independent oil and gas production and
development company focused on building a diversified portfolio of high-impact
energy assets.

 

The Company's core operations are in Georgia, where it holds interests in
seven Production Sharing Contracts covering an area of 4,256 km(2) in the
central part of the country. These include the XIB licence, which has over
2.77TCF of 2C contingent gas resources, with an estimated Net Present Value 10
("NPV") of USD 2.2 billion, in the Patardzueli-Samgori, Rustavi and Teleti
fields. (Source: IER, OPC 2024 & Internal estimates).

 

The Company is structured around a multi-project approach, progressing assets
across different stages of development, hydrocarbon type, and reservoir
characteristics. This approach is designed to deliver a balanced portfolio of
production growth, field redevelopment, new discoveries and the
commercialisation of substantial gas resources. The goal is to deliver on
multi-TCF gas assets, strategically well located for the key EU market,
supported by partner funding and cash from existing producing assets.

 

The Company completed a farm-out of licence XIQ to Aspect Georgia, under which
Aspect may earn up to a 92.5% working interest through the completion of a
staged, fully funded work programme.

 

In April 2026, the Company signed a Binding Framework Agreement with Zhijiang
Sanning Energy Co. Ltd, one of China's leading chemical producers, in relation
to the farm out of Project III. Project III comprises the Lower Eocene and
Upper Cretaceous gas discoveries across Block's XIB and XIF licences
in central Georgia. The proposed farm-out is expected to support the
appraisal and development of these assets while reducing Block Energy's
capital exposure.

 

Located near the Georgian capital of Tbilisi, Block Energy is well-positioned
to contribute significantly to the region's energy landscape. This proximity
facilitates seamless operations and underscores our commitment to the economic
and energy development of Georgia.

In April 2026, the Company made a strategic entry into Gabon, with the aim of
securing a 76.5% interest in two offshore PSC's, Ndijila and Mpari, with
75MMbbls of discovered oil (pMean). The two licences, which cover an area of
5,331km², represent a low-cost entry, with high leverage to upside. They
include 4 discovered areas, plus material exploration potential.
