3Q Update (as at 31 March 2013)

On target with delivery of major growth projects

Sugarloaf – wells to be drilled in 2013 increased to 37 with at least 2 in the Austin Chalk; test results for tighter well spacing due mid-year

Ande Ande Lumut (AAL) – major milestone achieved: regulator approval for tendering plan; entering FEED contracting stage for WHP and FPSO; preparing to farm out up to 50% of project with data room to open in June; FID on schedule and expected before end of 2013

WA Unconventional Gas – Senecio tight gas development feasibility study nearing completion; promising test results from Kockatea and Carynginia Shales at Arrowsmith-2

Focused Exploration Program – currently drilling Lengo-2 well in Indonesia; planning to drill Oi-1 exploration well in NZ before end 2013; pursuing additional conventional and unconventional opportunities in Perth Basin, South East Australia and Indonesia

AWE is well positioned to deliver growth from its development & exploration pipeline 8

Ande Ande Lumut (100%, Operator)

AAL oil project is located in the North West

Natuna PSC, Indonesia

76 million barrels of recoverable oil (gross,

2C estimate)

AWE has significantly improved the project

development plan including subsurface work

and facilities design

Further upside potential from deeper G

Sand reservoir, exploration within PSC and

other opportunities adjacent to the PSC

Independent audit and certification of

Contingent Resources being done by RPS

Farm-out on track - data room opens in June

and FID scheduled for end of 2013

Data room opens in June, strong interest from potential investors 13

Ande Ande Lumut (100%, Operator)

Approved POD comprises $600 million gross

capex plus leased FPSO (AWE’s capex

commitment will reduce after farm-out)

FPSO bridge linked to WHP, up to 40

horizontal wells, ESPs utilised

Capex spread over 4 years from 2014,

minimal costs pre FID (<$20 million)

Drilling comprises >60% of total capex, but

project will generate revenue and begin to self

fund soon after first oil

Achieved major milestone with regulator

approval of FPSO tender plan - now entering

FEED contracting stages for WHP and FPSO

Project can be funded from balance sheet & future operating cash flows 14

Sugarloaf AMI (10%, net 7.5% after royalties)

Independent review of reserves by D&M

complete - 2P Reserves increased by 6.4

MMBOE, or 67%, to 15.9 MMBOE

Production up 282% YTD v prior year

81 wells (gross) online at end of March

2013 with further 5 in progress

Typical well costs of US$8-9 million

Expected 37 new wells (gross) to be

drilled in calendar 2013

Upside potential being actively

pursued:

• Tighter well spacing

• Austin Chalk and deeper

shale plays

Recent Sugarloaf deals (non-AWE) demonstrate significant increase in value

The US Energy Administration continues to forecast strong oil price growth

(in real terms) over the next 30 years, even with substantially reduced

projected US imports

Whilst East Australian gas prices remain low compared to our Asian export

markets, most industry experts expect the domestic gas price to rise sharply

over the next 5-10 years as local supply increases to meet LNG exports
