in line with its farm-in obligations.
Target Evaluation
Further to the Company's
announcement on 8 October 2024 on the signing of an NDA concerning
potential farm-in rights to major helium, hydrogen and natural gas
subsalt prospects, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary,
Westmarket Oil & Gas has executed a further confidentiality
agreement with a second well-established Australian oil
and gas production and exploration company as it continues to
negotiate potential farm-in rights to two or more potential primary
subsalt helium, hydrogen and natural gas targets post Hussar and Mt
Winter.
Scoping Study
The Company is advancing a
comprehensive conceptual scoping study with an independent
international consultancy for a large-scale separation plant for
hydrogen, helium and natural gas products at or near the Hussar
site. The study will include evaluation of helium, hydrogen and LNG
production profitability as well as ammonia/urea production from
hydrogen and hydrocarbon components. The study will include capital
and operating costs estimates and concept estimates of the revenue
from gases produced at the wellhead to be sold to third parties
under the offtake agreement. It is anticipated first draft of the
scoping study will be delivered in January 2025.
Fully Funded
The Company is fully funded for its
work programme at Hussar (including the re-entry well), to meet its
obligations under the Mt Winter farm-in, and for general working
capital. The Company received approximately £4.2m ("Net Proceeds")
in August following the 31 July 2024, being the date the
enlarged share capital was admitted to trading on the Equity Shares
(Transition) category of the official list and the main market of
London Stock Exchange. The use of Net Proceeds is set out in the
Prospectus dated 11 July 2024.
Anthony Hamilton, Chief Executive
Officer of Georgina Energy, commented:
"The Company continues to move along
with re-entering Hussar and bringing Mt Winter to
pre-drill as part of our programme to develop low-risk helium,
hydrogen and natural gas projects in Australia. All the work
programmes are fully funded from our recent listing."

Notes to Editors
Georgina Energy aims to become a
leading player in the global energy market and is focused on
establishing itself among the top producers of helium and hydrogen
worldwide. With a strategic approach and leveraging the experienced
management team's expertise, Georgina Energy aims to capitalize on
opportunities in these critical energy sectors.
Georgina Energy has two principal
onshore interests held through its wholly owned Australian
subsidiary, Westmarket O&G. The first, the Hussar
Prospect is located in the Officer Basin in Western Australia and
Westmarket O&G holds a 100% working interest in the exploration
permit. The second, the EPA155 Mt Winter Prospect, is in the
Amadeus Basin in the Northern Territory, which Georgina Energy has
a right to earn an initial 75 per cent. interest in (with the
potential to reach 90 per cent.).
In line with market demand trends,
Georgina Energy is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing gap
between supply and demand for hydrogen and helium with the resource
potential of EPA155 Mt Winter and EP513 Hussar projects for their
potential accumulations.
