PEL 182 VALUE CREATION

Inherited Seismic Dataset: No closure over a proven field! AuDAX reprocessing: Closure over field

Test - Reprocessing over a proven Cooper Basin discovery

The conventional remaining Cooper basin prospects are generally smalland need reliable risk reduction in order to become commercial successes

A DAX h f ll t t d i i d t i ti ThiAuDAX has successfully tested a new seismic data processing routine. Thisultimately enhances the value of the prospect portfolio through risk reduction
