Executive Chairman's Review

The Company reports a loss for the period of US$1.27 million (30 June 2021: US$1.59 million). Further information is provided in the Financial Review. It is clear from numerous government statements and actions that Tanzania is seeking to expand its energy production to achieve further industrialisation. This national effort has seen the planning and construction of multiple facilities along existing gas delivery infrastructure either directly connected to or in proximity to our Tanzanian assets, which are expected to increase local gas demand significantly soon. In addition, it has been reported that Tanzania is exploring the possibility of supplying gas to its neighbours in the East African region. These developments bode well for the future commercialisation of our assets.
