KOSMOS ENERGY ANNOUNCES FIRST LNG CARGO AT THE GREATER TORTUE AHMEYIM PROJECT
IN MAURITANIA AND SENEGAL
DALLAS, Texas, April 17, 2025 - Kosmos Energy (http://www.kosmosenergy.com/)
(NYSE/LSE: KOS) notes the announcement today from bp plc (operator) that the
first cargo of liquified natural gas (LNG) has been safely loaded from the
Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) LNG project, offshore Mauritania & Senegal.
The first shipment of LNG was transferred to the "British Sponsor" LNG carrier
from Golar LNG's floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) vessel located
approximately 10 kilometers offshore, where the natural gas was liquefied and
stored. The first cargo was fully loaded at approximately 174,000 cubic meters
of LNG. A second LNG carrier is currently waiting near the hub terminal in
preparation for the second cargo lifting.
The announcement of the first cargo shipment follows first gas production in
late 2024 and first LNG production in February. The first cargo lifting is
when Kosmos and its partners start to recognize revenue and is another key
milestone for the project. The FLNG vessel has a nameplate capacity of 2.7
million tonnes per annum.
Commenting on the first LNG cargo lifting at GTA, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer Andrew G. Inglis said: "The first LNG cargo is a significant
milestone, enabling Mauritania and Senegal to become gas exporting nations
from this project of national strategic importance. We continue to work with
bp, SMH and PETROSEN to safely ramp up the project to its full capacity as
well as deliver expansion that leverages the infrastructure put in place for
this initial phase."

facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or

forward-looking statements are mainly based on its current expectations and
estimates of future events and trends, which affect or may affect its
businesses and operations. Although Kosmos believes that these estimates and
forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they are
subject to several risks and uncertainties and are made in light of
information currently available to Kosmos. When used in this press release,
the words "anticipate," "believe," "intend," "expect," "plan," "will" or other
similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties,
many of which are beyond the control of Kosmos, which may cause actual results

statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
Management does not provide a reconciliation for forward looking non GAAP
financial measures where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate
calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not
available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty
of forecasting the occurrence and the financial impact of various items that
have not yet occurred, are out of our control or cannot be reasonably
predicted. For the same reasons, management is unable to address the probable
significance of the unavailable information. Forward looking non GAAP
financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial
measures.
