TRINITY’S BUSINESS MODEL & STRATEGY

4

Consistent business model - focusing on reserves and production growth since founding in 2005 Our strategy:

  • Mature basin ‘acquisition and development ’ business model
  • Focus on acquiring and developing proved but ‘stranded’ resources
  • Focus on assets with development potential
  • Lower risk and faster project cycle times than wildcat frontier exploration
  • Leading to better ‘risked returns’

Implementation:

  • Tight geographic focus: Trinidad & Tobago
  • Operatorship and large working interests: control our destiny
  • Core areas/production hubs: building competitive advantage
  • Achieving critical mass and scale: portfolio diversification

‘Acquire and Develop’ business model focused on Trinidad & Tobago

STRATEGIC LANDSCAPE

5

Trinidad & Tobago is a mature but highly attractive basin…

  • Sustained growth in oil & gas production is a strategic national interest
  • Mature network of infrastructure and access to downstream markets
  • Availability of equipment and services
  • Progressive fiscal regime
  • Favourable regulatory regime
  • Skilled labour force

...with opportunities swiftly to build a business of scale

  • Fallow discoveries offering near term development projects
  • Partnering with major upstream players to monetise stranded reserves
  • Infrastructure-led in-fill exploration and appraisal
