EXPLORATON AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
        Producing Fields
        At Balkassar lease (100% owned by POL), Balkassar Deep-1A is in the planning phase as replacement
        of Balkassar Deep-1.


        At Pindori lease (operated by POL with a 35% share), 3D seismic acquisition is in plan to evaluate the
        prospectivity of Chorgali formation and to evaluate the possibility to produce un-drained oil.
        At Tal block, (operated by MOL, where POL has a pre-commerciality share of 25%), Tolanj West-2 a
        development well drilled down to target depth and tested three formations; Lamshiwal formation flowed
        12.7 million cubic feet of gas per day, 11.3 barrels of oil per day and 9.2 barrels of water per day at
        32/64” choke size at flowing well head pressure of 1,914 psi, Lockhart Formation tested and produced
        8.3 million cubic feet of gas per day, 34 barrels of oil per day with no water at 32/64” choke size at
        flowing wellhead pressure of 1,285 psi and Samansuk & Shinawari formations flowed 2.25 million
        cubic feet of gas per day, Oil nil, water nil with well head flowing pressure of 374 psi at 32/64” choke
        size. Production from this well is expected to start from December 2022 and actual figures may differ
        from the testing results.
        At Adhi field (operated by Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL), where POL has 11% share), Adhi South-7
        has been spudded on April 14, 2022 drilled down to its target depth, initial testing results were 500
        barrels of oil per day and 0.5 million cubic feet of gas per day at 28/64” choke size with flowing well head
        pressure of 360 psi.
        Adhi South-5 tested to the target depth, tested and not produced any hydrocarbons. Rig has been
        released and planning of frac job is in progress. Adhi-35 and Adhi South-6 have been planned in the
        financial year 2022-23.
        Exploration Blocks
        At Ikhlas block (operated by POL with 80% share), Jhandial well -3 is in the planning phase.
        At DG Khan block (operated by POL with a 70% share), DGK-1, exploratory well drilled down to 15,206
        ft but clearance of hole was not achieved to acquire hole logs. During conditioning, 455 ft of fish left in
        hole and despite several attempts no success was made to recover the fish. Placed cement plugs and
        tested  Chiltan  formation  but  no  hydrocarbons  were  flowed.  Finally,  the  well  was  plugged  and
        abandoned.  Remaining leads of DG Khan Block are under evaluation.
        North Dhurnal block (operated by POL with 60% share) seismic acquisition design to acquire 3D
        Seismic data is in progress.
        At Kirthar South block (operated by POL with 51% share), 34% share has been farm-out to Polish Oil
        and Gas Company (PGNiG) and Assignment Agreement has been submitted to the Government for its
        approval. Well staking of Bandhak-1 well and its access route survey has been completed and waiting
        for the Government’s approval to start construction work.
        At Margala block (operated by MOL where POL has 30% share), Tarnol-1 was spudded on September
        20, 2022 and drilling at 4,800 feet is in progress.
        At Tal block (operated by MOL where POL has pre commerciality share of 25%), an exploratory well
        Razgir has been approved by the joint venture partners but on hold due to gas price dispute with the
        Government. 152.93 square kilometers 3D Seismic data over KOT area processing and interpretation
        has  been  completed.  TAL  West  area  3D  Seismic  data  procession  and  interpretation  has  been
        completed to identify new prospects.
