RNS No 7944p ATLANTIC RICHFIELD COMPANY 18th August 1998 ARCO, BG plc Announce Reserves Additions For Tangguh Lng Project In Indonesia; Proved Reserves Climb 128% To 14.4 Tcf; Probable Reserves Add Another 3.9 Tcf LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- ARCO (NYSE: ARC) and BG plc announced today that Tangguh project proved reserves, critical to the formation of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) project and the focus of an intensive drilling program in eastern Indonesia over the past 12 months, increased dramatically from the 6.3 trillion cubic feet (TCF) announced last year to 14.4 TCF as of July 31, 1998. Reserves were estimated by the independent petroleum engineering firm, DeGolyer and MacNaughton (D&M). D&M also estimates that proved and probable gas reserves increased from last year's 13.3 TCF to 18.3 TCF this year, while another 3 TCF of possible reserves were identified in the fields discovered to date. The reserves are located within the Wiriagar, Berau and Muturi blocks in Berau Bay, Irian Jaya, Indonesia. D&M's estimates were based on reservoir data obtained from 13 additional wells drilled since last year's reserve certification announced in September. Drilling activity peaked early in 1998 with as many as five rigs operating delineation wells in Berau Bay at one point. These certified proved reserves form the basis for the current Tangguh LNG marketing effort by Pertamina, Indonesia's state oil company and marketer of all Indonesian LNG. Pertamina will sell the proved Tangguh reserves under the standard long-term contracts which have defined the Asia-Pacific LNG trade. It is intended that ARCO will have operational responsibility for the certified fields within the three blocks feeding gas to the LNG plant and will also be the downstream/marketing representative of the producer companies with Pertamina for the first two trains of the LNG project. "The Tangguh LNG project is poised to exceed Arun's total gas reserve base and comes at an optimal time for Pertamina and Indonesia," said Leon Codron, President and Resident Manager of ARCO Indonesia, Inc. "This massive replacement of reserves will allow Pertamina to maintain its pre-eminent position in Asian and world LNG marketing and return significant revenues to the people of Indonesia for national development at a pivotal time for the economy. ARCO and its co-venturers are proud to invest, with confidence, in the economic recovery and long-term success of Indonesia." Codron said that Pertamina and its production sharing contractors plan to launch the Tangguh LNG Project with a two-train, 6-million tons per annum first phase. "These gas reserves will comfortably support at least three trains of LNG production, allowing Tangguh to support traditional and emerging markets of the Asia-Pacific region. Tangguh has become the leading grassroots LNG development available to Asia-Pacific markets as a result of the ideal location close to markets, the prolific nature of the reservoirs with high quality gas, and the low cost of development." According to Herb Vogel, ARCO Indonesia's Vice President for Tangguh LNG, Tangguh will become Indonesia's third multi-train center, providing Pertamina the flexibility and reliability that no other LNG marketer can attain. The additional exploration potential of the Wiriagar, Berau, and Muturi blocks, as well as relatively unexplored adjacent blocks, insure that Tangguh will become another center for Indonesia's LNG business." Frank Chapman, BG plc Executive Director for Exploration and Production, said: "Thanks to the cooperation between Pertamina and the various partners, the speed at which this project has materialized from a rank exploration prospect in 1994 is impressive. I am delighted that our drilling program identified such significant quantities of gas."

The increase in proved plus probable qas reserves levels released today represent additional data from the results of an additional 13 wells. 5) Certified proved and probable reserves distribution by Production Sharing Contract Areas, based on the most recent estimates of DeGolyer & MacNaughton, are as follows: Proved Proved Plus Probable* Berau PSC 10.3 TCF (71%) 12.4 TCF (68%) Muturi PSC 3.1 TCF (21%) 3.8 TCF (21%) Wiriagar PSC 1.0 TCF (8%) 2.1 TCF (11%) 14.4 TCF 18.3 TCF *D&M reserve certificates qualify that probable reserves are not directly comparable with proved reserves as they have not been adjusted in consideration of additional risks.
