Ruvuma Update

Scirocco (AIM: SCIR) the AIM investing company targeting attractive assets within the European sustainable energy and circular economy markets, is pleased to provide an update on the Ruvuma asset, where Scirocco has entered into an agreement to sell its 25% interest to ARA Petroleum Tanzania (APT).

On 25 November 2022, at the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation ("TPDC") headquarters in Dar es Salaam, the parties to the Ruvuma PSA signed an addendum to the PSA ("PSA Addendum"). The Ruvuma PSA, as with all other PSAs in Tanzania, contained profit share, royalty, and taxation rates only for oil production. The PSA Addendum sets out the relevant terms for gas production.

At the event, the Tanzanian Minister of Energy and Managing Director of TPDC outlined the Government's commitment to:

   --      Develop additional gas resources as soon as possible;

-- Accelerate Ruvuma's production, which will play a vital role in achieving the country's short to medium-term gas needs; and

-- Construct a 30 km pipeline to tie the Ntorya gasfield into the existing Madimba processing and pumping station in the next six to nine months.

Tom Reynolds, CEO of Scirocco, commented:

"As we progress towards the completion of the divestment of Scirocco's interest in Ruvuma to APT, the above is a positive step which supports the development of the Ruvuma licence in due course and therefore the payment of the contingent elements associated with that transaction."
