Updated Corporate Presentation

BPC, the Caribbean and Atlantic margin focused oil and gas company, with production, appraisal, development and onshore and offshore exploration assets across the region, has today released an updated Corporate Presentation, which is available on the Company's website - www.bpcplc.com

The updated Corporate Presentation summarises and consolidates in one document various matters that have been set out in a number of recent Company RNS announcements. In particular, the updated Corporate Presentation draws attention to the fact that since completion of the drilling of Perseverance #1 in The Bahamas, the Company's near-term strategic focus is to add immediate production, oil sales and cashflow in respect of its assets in Trinidad and Tobago and Suriname. BPC has existing production of 450 - 500 bopd and a full program of drilling activities and corporate actions planned across the next 18 months (subject to capital availability), designed to add material levels of profitable production from existing producing oil fields and known discoveries, as summarised in the following table (on an indicative basis):
