CFG’s Myanmar Activities
• CFG participated in Myanmar’s Nov. 2013 offshore bidding round along
with Transcontinental Resource Group (TRG) and Myanmar’s KMA Group.
• Under the terms of the bidding agreement, TRG will be carried through
the seismic program after which it needs to elect to participate for a 10%
interest or convert to a 0.33% gross overriding royalty. KMA will receive
a10% carried interest through the exploration program.
• CFG and TRG were awarded Shallow Offshore Block M-15 on March 2014.
Under the terms of joint bid, CFG will undertake a seismic program and
drill two wells.

Owns the operation right of block M-15 covers 13,480 sq. km.
Estimated P50 Recoverable 16.1 TCF
Block M-15 is located in the Andaman Sea, within the Tanintharyi Offshore basin,
which is off Myanmar’s southern Tanintharyi coast.
One of the biggest offshore gas fields in Myanmar, Yetagun gas field, is located 60
km to the north of M-15. The Yetagun field contains an estimated 4.2 TCF of
recoverable gas. Daily production is about 400 MMSCFD with 12,000 bbl/day
condensate
According to regional magnetic information, M-15 is located at the
Transgression/regression channel area from Eocene to Miocene age. Both Clastic
and Carbonate reservoirs are prospective targets within this block.
One well, M15-B1, was drilled in January 2005. The well was drilled to 3,440 ft and
abandoned. An evaluation of the data by in-house geologist has led to the
determination that the well was drilled too shallow
Approximately 1,753 km of 2D-seismic has been acquired. Previous geophysical
and geological work had identified several prospects with potential from 1 TCF to 5
TCF gas and indicate significant structural and stratigraphic traps. Additional 2D
and 3D seismic work are required to identify the most promising closures

Major Pipelines - Myanmar to China
•The gas pipeline from Myanmar to China
carries the gas extracted from Shwe gas
project located offshore of the Bay of
Bengal.
•The crude oil pipeline is designed to
carry approximately 22 million tonnes of
oil per year.
•The design capacity of the natural gas
pipeline is 13 Bm³. It is expected to
deliver 12 Bm³ of gas to China every year,
while reserving1Bm³ of gas for Myanmar's
domestic use.*

Major Pipelines - Myanmar to Thailand
•Gas extracted from the
Yetagun project started flowing
to Thailand in 2000 at about
200 mmcfd. In August 2004,
this figure doubled after four
new wells went online. With the
new wells, overall production
climbed to 500 MMSCFD, with
400 MMSCFD exported to
Thailand.
•The offshore Yadana gas
project, where Total is the
operator of the project, exports
600 MMSCFD to Thailand.
About 200 MMSCFD are used
to meet Myanmar’s domestic
needs.

Excerpts from News on Myanmar
•
“Thailand’s biggest oil and gas company PTT Exploration and Production (PTTEP)
announced on Tuesday that it will invest US$3.3 billion in Burma over five years.” The
Irrawady (February 25, 2014 edition)
•
“Myanmar's government envisions development of the project chipping away at the
dominance of ports along the Strait of Malacca—such as Singapore's Keppel port,
the world's busiest—and marking Myanmar's place on major shipping routes, given
its strategic location between India and China.” (The Wall Street Journal – Myanmar
Envisions Trading Hub at Deep-Sea Port by Shabani Mahtani - May 20, 2014)
•
“The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) recently
reported, “… Myanmar is well positioned to engage a multi-pronged development
strategy that draws on agriculture, mining, and extraction, manufacturing, and
services.” The Asian Development Bank notes that Myanmar could grow at 7 to 8%
per year for a decade or more.” (Industry Week - July 14, 2014 )
•
“The economic and financial transformation underway is real and it is rapid.”
(Interview with Singapore’s United Overseas Bank Managing Director Ian Wong on
the bank’s branch opening in Myanmar (The Irrawady - June 2, 2014 edition)
Reason to Invest in O & G Exploration
• Multi-TCF potential of under-explored offshore blocks
• Myanmar is still considered a frontier exploration country with an
estimated 3.2 billion barrels of recoverable oil out of an estimated 540
billion barrels of oil in place and 20 TCF of proven gas reserves out of
estimated 100 TCF initial gas in place. *
• Myanmar’s domestic gas demand is increasing and energy security is a
concern.
There is robust domestic gas demand from neighboring
countries such as Thailand, China and India. Myanmar’s 2012-2013
exported gas receipts amounted to $3.7 billion dollars, mainly to Thailand.
• Infrastructure for oil and gas delivery has already been built.
