PUKA 1 FIRST FLOW TESTING RESULTS

EXCELLENT QUALITY LIGHT OIL

Swabbing operations at Puka-1 produced oil and gas to the surface almost immediately. Initial independent field analysis of the oil showed it to be of excellent quality light oil with a density of 43.7 Degrees API and a relatively low pour point of 15 Degrees Centigrade.

Preparations are currently underway to commence a longer term production testing of the well to establish production rates and reservoir characteristics.

The 100% owned Puka-1 well is in permit PEP 51153 within New Zealand's onshore Taranaki Basin. Kea announced on 10 April that Puka-1 had intersected a 40m interval of Mt. Messenger reservoir quality sands with a net pay of between 4.5m and 9m. Kea has not altered its original estimate of gross recoverable resource of one million barrels of oil with a potential upside of up to three million barrels of oil.

Further information will be released as it becomes available.

Ian Gowrie-Smith, Chairman said:

"These results could not be better or more encouraging. If further testing confirms our expectations, Puka-1 will transform Kea into a profitable oil producer."

Testing operations are continuing at Douglas.

This release has been approved by non-executive director Peter Mikkelsen FGS, AAPG, who has consented to the inclusion of the technical information in this release in the form and context in which it appears.
