OPERATIONS REVIEW

OVERVIEW

The Company's primary objective is to maximize shareholder value from its principal asset at Cambay, located onshore Gujarat State in India.

To that end, Oilex continues to evaluate and implement a range of technical programme options to progress the main objective of accessing a multi-TCF gas resource present in siltstones in the EP-IV reservoir. North American unconventional drilling, completion and stimulation technologies have been applied by the Joint Venture over the last six years with positive but commercially modest results and now work is underway to optimise results for future work programmes. The current technical work programmes focus on:

-- Extracting geological and engineering information from core data with associated studies to match advanced North American drilling and completion technologies with the local basin geology of the EP-IV, and

-- Two planned workovers of existing wells C-70 and C-23z aimed at gas production from the shallower OS-II reservoir in unswept areas in a parallel effort to develop the block at multiple levels. As agreed with GSPC, the Joint Venture partner, Oilex is to fully fund the workover expenditure and receive all revenue until these costs are recovered. Once costs are recovered, Oilex and GSPC will revert to their participating interests of revenue and expenditure.

If successful, this work will assist in finalising an application for extension to the Cambay PSC required to be submitted to the Government of India during September 2017.

HEALTH, SAFETY, SECURITY AND ENVIRONMENT

No lost time incidents recorded during the quarter. Completed first aid and basic firefighting training of employees and their families in India.

CAMBAY FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Oilex: Operator and 45% interest)

In January 2017, the Company announced that it had amended its short term work plan to progress the tight gas EP-IV project. Under a revised study plan, Oilex will take advantage of a lower cost approach by analysing core samples from C-23z drilled in 2008. In addition, the Company will complete workovers of wells C-70 and C-23z during the June 2017 Quarter.

During the current quarter, the Company substantially completed its procurement processes for the C-23z core analysis and the workover of the two wells. In this regard, on 21 April 2017, the Company announced the award of two key contracts to Schlumberger and Baker Hughes to carry out the C-23z core analysis and studies. Schlumberger and Baker Hughes will advise on the optimal well and stimulation design required to achieve potential commercial flow rates.

The Company has a significant multi-TCF gas resource at the Cambay PSC in the EP-IV tight siltstones that requires drilling optimisation and stimulation technologies to achieve commercial flow rates. The analysis of the core from C-23z is essential in the planning and design of future wells and the stimulation process at the Cambay PSC. Both Schlumberger and Baker Hughes are global leaders in the stimulation of tight gas reservoirs. The studies commenced in April and are anticipated to be completed within approximately three months.

Mobilisation of equipment for the workover of wells C-70 and C-23z commenced in late April 2017. The workovers are designed to test production flow rate potential from the OS-II reservoir in areas that remain unswept by earlier production. While the expectations are for modest flow rates, a successful outcome will provide support for the application to extend the term of the PSC. Options for the sale of gas production from the workover wells into the local low pressure gas market are currently under review.

The current PSC term expires on 23 September 2019. The Government of lndia formally approved its Policy for the Grant of Extension to Production Sharing Contracts including the Cambay PSC in March 2016. The Company intends to lodge an application for grant of extension to the Cambay PSC in accordance with this policy, which remains untested. The application must be submitted during September 2017 and the Company is on track to meet this date.

Plans are advanced to bring previous producing wells C-73 and C-77H back on line. Production was terminated in mid-2016 as the period for test production had expired. The Company has now received confirmation from the regulator for production from the wells.

In December 2016, Oilex participated in a formal tender process initiated by Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Limited (GSPC), its Joint Venture partner, by submitting a conditional offer for a possible additional 55% interest in the Cambay PSC (Cambay). The Company has received advice that the sale process has been delayed however no revised timetable has been provided.

In addition to GSPC's agreement to any potential sale, Indian regulatory approvals will be required to affect the sale/transfer of GSPC's interest in Cambay. Oilex is the Operator and holds a pre-emptive right in respect of the possible sale of GSPC's interest in the Cambay PSC to any third party.

During the quarter the Work Programmes & Budgets (WP&B) for the Cambay Field for FY 2016/17 and FY 2017/18 received joint venture and regulatory approvals.

Joint Venture Management

As at 31 March 2017, gross unpaid cash calls issued to GSPC and going back several years totalled approximately US$6.8 million. Oilex continues to engage with its Joint Venture partner to resolve the unpaid cash calls. Oilex as Operator, continues to bear the ongoing costs of the Joint Venture. During the quarter Oilex received gross US$69,800 from GSPC against outstanding cash calls for Cambay.

BHANDUT FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Oilex: Operator and 40% interest)

Oilex is Operator and holds a 40% equity in the Bhandut Field, with GSPC holding the remaining participating interest. Previous drilling in the Bhandut Field intersected a number of hydrocarbon zones, some of which have been produced and are now shut-in. As previously advised, production from the Bhandut Field previously ceased on 6 October 2016 due to increasing water cut.

During the quarter, the Company obtained approval of the 2016/17 and 2017/18 Work Programmes and Budgets.

The field has ongoing production and exploration potential, coupled with existing production facilities. The Company is currently in discussion with several parties, seeking expressions of interest in a possible sale of its participating interest in the PSC.

At the end of the quarter, total unpaid cash calls by GSPC were approximately US$0.14 million. During the quarter Oilex received gross US$24,000 from GSPC against outstanding cash calls for Bhandut.

Sabarmati FIELD, GUJARAT, INDIA

(Oilex: Operator and 40% interest)

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, all outstanding cash calls owing by the JV partner, GSPC were paid (US$23,000 gross). The Sabarmati PSC was relinquished in 2016.

WALLAL GRABEN, WESTERN AUSTRALIA (CANNING BASIN)

(Oilex: Operator and 100% interest)

The Wallal Graben asset is located adjacent to the Pilbara, a global resource centre for iron ore and LNG in Western Australia.

The Wallal Graben blocks are currently under application with the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP). They are frontier exploration blocks that represent a potential low cost entry to an underexplored area. Oilex continues to investigate low cost exploration techniques, de-risking tools and approaches that address the geological uncertainties in this basin and potentially provide an alternative lower cost work programme to the currently offered levels which were determined in a higher oil price environment.

Final award of the blocks requires signing of Heritage Agreements with the Nyangumarta and Njamal People and is linked to a request to the DMP that all three blocks be awarded simultaneously. Consultations on the Heritage Agreements are nearly complete following which the DMP will make an offer to grant a Petroleum Exploration Permit for each of the three blocks to Oilex for its final acceptance. Oilex can review its interest in pursuing these applications at any time.

JPDA 06-103, TIMOR SEA

(Oilex: Operator and 10% interest)

Oilex as operator, and on behalf of the JPDA 06-103 Joint Venture participants, continues to seek a resolution to the dispute with Autoridade Nacional do Petroleo e Minerais (ANPM) in relation to matters associated with the termination of JPDA 06-103 PSC. In July 2015, the ANPM rejected the Joint Venture request to terminate the PSC by mutual agreement in good standing and without penalty, and the ANPM sought to impose a penalty of approximately US$17 million upon the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture undertook significantly more exploration expenditure than required during the PSC term and believes the excess was not properly accounted for in accordance with the terms of the PSC.

The Joint Venture continues its discussions with the ANPM and remains hopeful an amicable settlement will be reached. If the parties are unable to reach an amicable settlement, any party may refer the matter to arbitration. If this occurs, the obligations and liabilities of the Joint Venture participants under the PSC are joint and several, with parent company guarantees provided by all Joint Venture participants. Oilex has a 10% participating interest in the Joint Venture and is the Operator.

WEST KAMPAR PSC, CENTRAL SUMATRA, INDONESIA

(Oilex: 45% interest and further 22.5% secured (1) )

A Court approved Scheme of Arrangement has been implemented over the Indonesian Operator, however, Oilex continues to pursue enforcement of the Arbitration Award and a commercial settlement.

At the end of 2016 the Indonesian Operator applied in the Indonesian courts for a debt payment obligation suspension. This was denied and the operating company, PT Sumatera Persada Energi (SPE) was declared bankrupt. A number of creditors meetings were held during the quarter. Oilex has instructed its Indonesian based lawyers to pursue its claim in the courts covering refund of monies provided by Oilex to the Operator, accrued interest, arbitration and legal costs and loss of profits.

During the quarter, Oilex received confirmation from the Indonesian Government regulator that Oilex continues to retain a 45% participating interest in the PSC. In the absence of a commercial settlement, the Company intends to preserve its rights.

CORPORATE

At the end of the quarter Oilex retained cash resources of $1.83 million.

New Chairman appointed and Board strengthening commences

During the quarter Mr Cozijn stepped down as Non-Executive Chairman of the Company and Mr Lingo agreed to act as Non-Executive Chairman in an interim capacity during the transition period. Mr Lingo was appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Director on 11 February 2016. He is an experienced international resource & energy executive with a proven track record of successfully building companies in the upstream and midstream oil & gas energy sectors. Mr Lingo was previously Managing Director and CEO of Drillsearch Energy Limited and is currently the Managing Director and CEO of Elk Petroleum Limited. The Company also confirms that it has initiated a formal search process to identify a potential new Chairman and additional Non-Executive Directors to further strengthen the Board. Mr Cozijn will continue as a Non-Executive Director.

Placement to Fund Cambay Work Programme

During the quarter the Company agreed to a capital raising (Placement) to secure funding of approximately GBP1.1 million (A$1.78 million) to support its 2017 work programme and working capital requirements. Cornhill Capital Limited (Cornhill) have arranged GBP1 million from new investors in the United Kingdom with the Company having also received direct subscriptions of GBP0.1 million from existing professional shareholders.

                 by application of development projects, 
                 but which are not currently considered 
                 to be commercially recoverable due to 
                 one or more contingencies. 
 
                 Contingent Resources may include, for 
                 example, projects for which there are 
                 currently no viable markets, or where 
                 commercial recovery is dependent on 
                 technology under development, or where 
                 evaluation of the accumulation is insufficient 
                 to clearly assess commerciality. Contingent 
                 Resources are further categorized in 
                 accordance with the level of certainty 
                 associated with the estimates and may 
                 be sub-classified based on project maturity 
                 and/or characterised by their economic 
                 status.

 Reserves       Reserves are those quantities of petroleum 
                 anticipated to be commercially recoverable 
                 by application of development projects 
                 to known accumulations from a given 
                 date forward under defined conditions. 
 
                 Proved Reserves are those quantities 
                 of petroleum, which by analysis of geoscience 
                 and engineering data, can be estimated 
                 with reasonable certainty to be commercially 
                 recoverable, from a given date forward, 
                 from known reservoirs and under defined 
                 economic conditions, operating methods 
                 and government regulations. 
 
                 Probable Reserves are those additional 
                 Reserves which analysis of geoscience 
                 and engineering data indicate are less 
                 likely to be recovered than Proved Reserves 
                 but more certain to be recovered than 
                 Possible Reserves. 
 
                 Possible Reserves are those additional 
                 reserves which analysis of geoscience 
                 and engineering data indicate are less 
                 likely to be recoverable than Probable 
                 Reserves. 
 
                 Reserves are designated as 1P (Proved), 
                 2P (Proved plus Probable) and 3P (Proved 
                 plus Probable plus Possible). 
 
                 Probabilistic methods 
 
                 P90 refers to the quantity for which 
                 it is estimated there is at least a 
                 90% probability the actual quantity 
                 recovered will equal or exceed. P50 
                 refers to the quantity for which it 
                 is estimated there is at least a 50% 
                 probability the actual quantity recovered 
                 will equal or exceed. P10 refers to 
                 the quantity for which it is estimated 
                 there is at least a 10% probability 
                 the actual quantity recovered will equal 
                 or exceed.
