Trading and Reserves Update

IGas provides an operational, reserves and financial update for the year ended 31 December 2020. Final results for the year are expected to be announced on 7 April 2021. The information contained in this statement has not been audited and may be subject to change.

Operational Highlights

-- Net production averaged 1,907 boepd for the year, within guidance, while operating costs for the year were c. $33/boe (at an average 2020 exchange rate of GBP1:$1.29).

-- We anticipate net production of between 2,150-2,350 boepd and operating costs of c.$32/boe (assuming an exchange rate of GBP1:$1.35) in 2021, albeit subject to the ongoing challenges that COVID-19 presents.

-- Welton and Scampton waterflood projects are now on line and in the commissioning stage. Both projects were completed within budget with production uplift expected to be realised during 2021 with a maximum anticipated, incremental production rate of 100 bbls/d for Scampton and 120 bbls/d anticipated for Welton. The completion of these two projects has converted 840 Mboe of 2P reserves from undeveloped to developed as per D&M 2020.

   --    Geothermal - GT Energy 

o Stoke-on-Trent build out of heat network delayed due to impacts of COVID-19:

-- Planning decision expected before Easter 2021;

-- Ongoing discussions with Government regarding future financial support beyond the closure of the Non-domestic Renewable Heat Incentive to new projects on 31 March 2021.

o Growing development pipeline of potential projects in Newcastle, Crewe, and Southampton.

Stephen Bowler, Chief Executive, commented:

"Despite the significant challenges that 2020 presented, we have continued to make good progress in a number of key strategic areas. We delivered production within guidance, commissioned our waterflood projects, which will bring increased production in 2021 and beyond and completed a significant transaction with the acquisition of the geothermal energy developer, GT Energy.

The D&M CPR results are very encouraging and show that we have proven reserves of over 11 MMboe and a continuing high reserves replacement of over 250%, demonstrating the significant value and upside that remains in our conventional portfolio.

The safety of our people, contractors and the communities we work in remains at the forefront of our thinking against the backdrop of the ongoing impact of COVID-19."
