18(th) August 2025
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT RELATES TO THE DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION THAT QUALIFIED OR
MAY HAVE QUALIFIED AS INSIDE INFORMATION WITHIN THE MEANING OF (A) ARTICLE
7(1) OF UK MAR IN SO FAR AS IT RELATES TO ORDINARY SHARES ISSUED BY GEORGINA

("Georgina", "Georgina Energy" or the "Company")
HUSSAR EP513 DRILLING APPROVAL UPDATE
Georgina Energy Plc, GEX.L, announces that, following its RNS dated 14(th)
July, it has submitted a revised Environmental Management Plan (EMP) to
support the formal approval of its Well Management Plan for drilling activity
at Hussar EP513.
HUSSAR EP513 Approval Update
Westmarket Oil & Gas Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of the Company, has been
engaged with the Department of Mines, Petroleum and Exploration in Western
Australia ("DMPE", formerly "DEMIRS"), in consultation with the Traditional
Owners (MNR) and the Central Desert Native Titles Services (CDNTS) to ensure
final drilling approval is granted as required pursuant to regulation 13(1)c
of the Resource Management and Administration Regulations (RMAR). The Company
is confident the DMPE will issue the requested drilling approval in short
order.
The process is a significant undertaking by all parties to ensure compliance
and involves multiple submissions which are then reviewed by the relevant
regulators with any additional information to be submitted on request.
While this process has been lengthy, the ultimate outcome is access to the
Hussar wellsite. The initial programme calls for the Company to undertake
repairs at the Hussar Airstrip and access roads, and begin to construct
drilling and camp location pads together with water wells in preparation for
drilling.
Anthony Hamilton, Chief Executive Officer of Georgina Energy, commented:
"Georgina's operations team and consultants have worked closely in cooperation
with indigenous community representatives over a considerable period to ensure
all the required obligations for the granting of the Hussar drilling approval
are completed. We appreciate our shareholders' patience in this process as it
has been impacted by matters beyond our control such as unforeseen amendments,
including an increased resource area, and a once in 80-year flooding weather
event."
