Company Overview
- Current team has drilled 8 wells since joining in early 2007.
- Busiest and most successful Operator in Cameroon.
Succeeded in opening up Douala Basin and discovering oil on acreage previously considered as gas prone.
- Multiple discoveries made – all wells encountered hydrocarbons.
- Wells have been targeted to maximise value – oils and rich gas.
- Drill locations have also been considered in context of the desire
to maximise the area of retained prospective acreage.
- Extensive additional 3D seismic acquired (Block 6, 4C OBC etc).

Gas Handling – The Key to Monetising Resources
- Etinde resources are predominately gas-associated liquids.
- In order to realise the value of Bowleven’s existing discoveries,
finding a solution for the associated gas is key.
- In common with nearly all African countries, Cameroon has only
a small but rapidly expanding market for gas.
- Until very recently Cameroon Government had a strong
preference for any Cameroon gas, including Etinde gas, to be earmarked for use in aggregated LNG (GdF) scheme.
- Whilst gas sales to a third party is clearly preferable it is not a
pre-requisite to development as alternative “in house” solutions exist.
- Commercialising gas is a key objective of the work programme
that has been agreed by the JV for 2012.
- Production will provide the cashflow base for ongoing
development – plus further exploitation of the existing extensive prospect inventory.

IM – Gas Condensate Field
- Discovered by TEPCAM in 1967 with the IM-1 well.
- 3 additional wells drilled from 1971-1981 discovering and
appraising Gas-Condensate in the Upper and Middle Isongo.
- High quality reservoir sands with excellent deliverability.
- Gas composition from IM-4 Upper Isongo DST 11.4mmscfd,
827bcpd yields a CGR 72.5bbl/mmscf – similar to Alba Field (Equatorial Guinea).
- Only one well successfully penetrated Middle Isongo; CGR is
uncertain at this reservoir level.
- Mean WGIIP 466bcf (Upper and Middle Isongo)*.
- Bowleven will begin operations on the IM-5 well in late-Q2
2012.
- Well to appraise Middle Isongo reservoir and enhance the
established volumes and confirm CGR. Present Historical
- The IM-5 well is likely to be used as a future producer.
- It is anticipated that the IM Field will be used as one of the

Sapele Wells
Lessons Learnt
- The Sapele wells are drilled in a geologically/operationally
challenging environment.
- Interbedded reservoir facies with shale source rocks.
- Lower and Deep Omicron sandstone reservoirs are laterally
extensive/connected and are marked by substantial pressure
- inversions. This was not known prior to the drilling of the Sapele
wells.
- The combination of pressure peaks and inversions create
situations where the well is markedly over or underbalanced.
- Underbalanced situation leads to influx and well control
safety issues.
- Overbalanced situation leads to formation invasion,
damage, mud cake and mud loss to formation.
- The overbalance situation in the reservoirs had led to
compromise logging and testing results.
- Logging environment very demanding, high downhole
temperatures frequently exceeding tool ratings, differential sticking on longer tools also key issues.
- Subsequent wells will be redesigned to case off different
pressure regimes during drilling e.g. Sapele-3.
- Sapele-3 drilled within budget and without substantial formation
invasion.

Sapele – Cretaceous Discovery
- Discovered by Bowleven in 2011 with the Sapele-1 well.
- Medium quality interbedded reservoir sandstones of the Upper
Cretaceous.
- The stratigraphically trapped accumulation was found to contain
high pressure dry gas.

interval across the Douala Basin of Cameroon is ongoing to define reservoir fairways, future drilling locations and pressure profiles within the basin. Present Historical
