The engineering design that has been completed is intended to position InfraStrata's proposed Islandmagee facility as a globally competitive and technologically advanced, fast-cycle, pioneering gas storage facility. Costain, DEEP, Atkins and WSP have all worked together seamlessly to ensure the best possible outcome for InfraStrata.
The Expression of Interest ("EOI") period has now ended and its many responses are currently being evaluated prior to a bid pack being issued to the selected EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) contractors in December of this year. Work continues at pace to examine ways for potential enabling works to be undertaken between FEED completion and final investment decision ("FID").
Advanced discussions continue between InfraStrata and potential project equity providers and offtake partners.
John Wood, Chief Executive Officer commented "Completion of the Project's Engineering Design is a major fundamental milestone for InfraStrata. We still have some milestones left to complete prior to completing FEED, however, with the information we have to date we do not foresee any issues and expect to complete FEED on time and on budget."

Notes to editors:
InfraStrata is an independent gas storage company focused on the UK and Ireland. Further information is available on the Company's website: www.infrastrata.co.uk.
Background on the Islandmagee Storage Project
The Islandmagee gas storage project is a proposed salt cavern gas storage facility located on Islandmagee in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The Board of InfraStrata believes that the proposed 500 million cubic metres Natural Gas Cavern Storage facility will provide over 25% of the UK's Natural Gas Storage once constructed, and will be situated adjacent to the Scotland Northern Ireland (gas) Pipeline (SNIP) and the Moyle 500 Megawatt Electricity Interconnector. Work commenced in 2007 with the acquisition of 3D seismic data to image the Permian salt in the Larne Lough area. During 2012, planning permission was granted for the project and a gas storage licence was issued by the Utility Regulator. In 2015 a well was drilled to core the salt and confirm the technical feasibility of the project, supported in part by the European Commission. The Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) element of the Project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2018. To date approximately GBP11.5m has been invested in the project.
Further information is available on the company's website: www.infrastrata.co.uk
The Front End Engineering & Design (FEED) and Insitu Downhole Testing programme for the Islandmagee gas storage project is co-financed by the European Union's Connecting Europe Facility.
