Badile: Commencement of Civil Works

Sound Energy, the European and African focused upstream company, is pleased to confirm the commencement of civil works at the Badile exploration well site, onshore Northern Italy. The rig is expected to be mobilised during Q4 2016 with a view to drilling commencing around the end of the year.

Investors are invited to observe operations on site through the Company's webcam, which is expected to go-live later this week.

James Parsons, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"Following our recent success in Morocco, I am pleased to initiate the countdown to our second Strategic Play. Badile is a material gas prospect and one of our largest and most strategic assets. I look forward to this opportunity to repeat our success at Tendrara."
