As at 31 December 2014 the carrying value of financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss for the
Group and Company was US$6,790,000 (2013: Group and Company US$5,248,000).
Fair value of financial assets and liabilities
At 31 December 2014 and 2013, the fair value and the book value of the Group and Company's liabilities were as follows:
Group and CompanyFair value measurements at 31 December 2014

Level 1 $000 Level 2 $000 Level 3 $000
Financial Liability - - 5,248

Warrant liability - - 8
The derivative financial asset is measured on initial recognition and subsequently at fair value by reference to the
probability of various outcomes and categorised as level 3 measurement:
· Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities.
· Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
· Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or
liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair values of the financial liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a
current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The fair value of the warrant liability was initially recognised utilising the Black-Scholes model based on the underlying
contract terms. The fair value is recalculated when warrants are issued, exercised, expired or at year end utilising the
Black-Scholes model. The model takes into account the effect of financial assumptions, including the future share price
volatility, risk-free interest rates and expected life.
The fair value of the future profit oil royalty payable to Canamens as at 31 December 2013 and 2012 was calculated using
discounted cash flows expected from future production at BNG field during 20 years starting 2015. The discount rate used in
calculations of 8% is approximately equal to the current cost of debt for BNG LLP Ltd. The fair value of thefuture profit
oil royalty payable to Canamens as at 31 December 2014 was revised following a review by the Directors.
During 2014 and 2013 the movement in Group and Company's financial liabilities was as follows:
Financial Liability 2014$'000 2013$'000
Balance at the beginning of the year 5,248 5,248
Change in value taken to the Profit or Loss 1,542 -

General objectives, policies and processes
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group and Company's risk management objectives and
policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating
processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group and Company's finance
function. The Board receives regular reports from the finance function through which it reviews the effectiveness of the
processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets.
The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting
the Group and Company's competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:
Credit risk
Credit risk arises principally from the Group's other receivables. It is the risk that the counterparty fails to discharge
its obligation in respect of the instrument. The maximum exposure to credit risk equals the carrying value of these items
in the financial statements.
When commercial exploitation commences sales will only be made to customers with appropriate credit rating. Sales during
test production are made on prepayment base thereby eliminating credit risk.
Credit risk with cash and cash equivalents is reduced by placing funds with banks with high credit ratings.
Capital
The Company and Group define capital as share capital, share premium, deferred shares, shares to be issued, capital
contribution reserve, other reserves, retained earnings and borrowings. In managing its capital, the Group's primary
objective is to provide a return for its equity shareholders through capital growth. Going forward the Group will seek to
maintain a gearing ratio that balances risks and returns at an acceptable level and also to maintain a sufficient funding
base to enable the Group to meet its working capital and strategic investment needs. In making decisions to adjust its
capital structure to achieve these aims, either through new share issues or the issue of debt, the Group considers not only
its short-term position but also its long-term operational and strategic objectives.
The Group's gearing ratio as at 31 December 2014 was 12% (2013:10%; 2012:18%).
There has been no other significant changes to the Group's Management objectives, policies and processes in the year.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the Group and Company's Management of working capital and the amount of funding committed to its
exploration programme. It is the risk that the Group or Company will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial
obligations as they fall due.
The Group and Company's policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities
when they become due. To achieve this aim, it seeks to raise funding through equity finance, debt finance and farm-outs
sufficient to meet the next phase of exploration and where relevant development expenditure.
The Board receives cash flow projections on a periodic basis as well as information regarding cash balances. The Board will
not commit to material expenditure in respect of its ongoing exploration programmes prior to being satisfied that
sufficient funding is available to the Group to finance the planned programmes.
For maturity dates of financial liabilities as at 31 December 2014, 2013 and 2012 see table below:
On Demand Less than 3 months 3-12 months 1- 5 years Over 5 years Total
Group 2014 $'000 804 3,266 - 11,570 12,232 27,872
Group 2013 $'000 (restated) 1,454 2,686 - 11,570 10,679 26,389
Group 2012 $'000 (restated) 1,711 3,532 6,849 11,570 9,295 32,957
Company 2014 $'000 400 - 10,142 67,419 77,961
Company 2013 $'000 500 345 - 10,142 67,197 78,184
Interest rate risk
The majority of the Group's borrowings are at variable rates of interest linked to LIBOR. As a result the Group is exposed
to interest rate risk. An increase of LIBOR by 1% would have resulted in an increase in finance expense of approximately
US$100,000 (2013: US$155,000).
There is no significant interest rate risk on the cash and cash equivalents as the Group does not have significant surplus
cash balances to hold in interest bearing accounts.
Currency risk
The Group and Company's policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their
functional currency (primarily US Dollar and Kazakh Tenge) in that currency. Where the Group or Company entities have
liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency (and have insufficient reserves of that currency
to settle them) cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within the
Group.
In order to monitor the continuing effectiveness of this policy, the Board receives a periodic forecast, analysed by the
major currencies held by the Group and Company.
The Group and Company is primarily exposed to currency risk on purchases made from suppliers in Kazakhstan, as it is not
possible for the Group or Company to transact in Kazakh Tenge outside of Kazakhstan. The finance team carefully monitors
movements in the US Dollar/Kazakh Tenge rate and chooses the most beneficial times for transferring monies to its
subsidiaries, whilst ensuring that they have sufficient funds to continue its operations. The currency risk relating to
Tenge is insignificant.
In case Kazakhstani Tenge will devalue against US Dollar by 20% the Group will have foreign exchange loss in the amount of
US$23 million that will be reflected in the Statement of Comprehensive Income/Loss.
