During the first half of 2016, Group trade and other payables denominated in
US$ were increased by £163,000 (1H 2015 - reduction of £16,000) through
changes to the £/US$ exchange rate. 
 
Of the Group's total trade payables, £832,000 is due to Weatherford Technical
Services Limited no later than 31 December 2016. A further £833,000 is due no
later than 20 December 2017 which was recently extended from 20 September 2016
and consequently that amount has been transferred to non-current liabilities.
However, if during the remainder of 2016, Brent closes above US$50 per barrel
for 30 consecutive days, that amount will also become payable by 31 December
2016.  Interest is charged on both current and non-current amounts at 9% p.a.
and will increase to 12% effective 1 January 2017 for any amounts
outstanding. 
 
At 30 June 2015, loans totalling £358,000 were outstanding to Darwin Strategic
Limited of which £112,000 was subsequently paid during 2H 2015 before the
balance of £246,000 was converted into ordinary shares on 13 October 2015.

Of the Group's non-current trade and other payables, £300,000 is not due until
after sustained production is achieved from the Skipper field and is
non-interest bearing.  The balance of £833,000 is due by 20 December 2017
unless the conditions described in note 8 arise.  Interest on that amount is
charged at 9% during 2016 rising to 12% thereafter. 
 
On 7 December 2015 new loan facilities were announced for £2.75 million and
£2.0 million arranged with London Oil and Gas Limited and GE Oil and Gas
Limited respectively.  On 11 December 2015 a further loan was announced for
£0.8 million arranged with London Oil and Gas Limited.  Each facility remained
undrawn as 31 December 2015. Warrants were issued to London Oil and Gas
Limited and GE Oil and Gas Limited in respect of the above facilities and
recorded at fair value.  As the facilities were undrawn at year end 2015, the
value of the warrants plus associated costs were treated as a prepayment at
the year-end.  On draw down the prepayment amounts are debited against the
loan facility and amortised over the life of the facility through the
effective interest rate calculation. 
 
At 30 June 2016, £866,000 had been drawn against the £2.75 million facility
and £1,500,000 had been drawn against the £10 million facility.  Interest and
other charges, calculated on an effective interest basis, of £46,000 had been
added to total amounts outstanding.  In addition, an equity element of
£146,000 has been calculated and transferred to reserves.  Costs of £157,000
associated with the drawn amounts have been transferred from prepayments and
debited against these facilities.

price of 1p vesting on 1 March 2016 and expiring on 28 February 2021.  A fair
