2. Principal activities

Galilee Energy Limited (Galilee) is a Brisbane based energy company with a portfolio of assets primarily focussed onshore Australia.

The principal activity of the consolidated entity is oil and gas exploration and production. The foundation asset of the Company is the Glenaras Gas Project located in the Galilee Basin near Longreach in Queensland.

3. Strategy

The Company's strategy is to build a balanced portfolio of short and long term assets in the conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon sector while continuing to focus on commercialising the Glenaras Gas Project.

4. Results from operations

The loss for the year was $11.450 million (2018: loss of $10.316 million).

The loss for the year reflects the exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred on the Galilee Basin permit of $7.754 million in addition to staff costs and overheads attributable to progressing the Glenaras Gas Project (2018 $10.600 million).

5. Dividends

No dividends were paid to members during the financial year. Since the end of the financial year, the directors have not recommended the payment of any dividend.

6. Review of operations

Figure 1.

Glenaras Gas Project (ATP 2019) - GLL 100%

The Company's flagship Glenaras Gas Project lies within the highly prospective ATP2019 permit in Queensland's Galilee Basin. The permit covers an area of approximately 4000 km2 and is 100% owned and operated by Galilee Energy (Figure 1).

The project contains a significant coal seam gas Contingent Resource position in the Betts Creek and Aramac coals with a 1C of 308 PJ, a 2C of 2508 PJ and a 3C of 5314 PJ, as a result of the extensive historical exploration activity within the permit.

Significant activity was undertaken on the ATP2019 permit during the year with the successful completion of the enhanced Glenaras multi-lateral pilot which included the drilling of the Glenaras 14L, 15L and 16L wells. The lateral pilot (see Figure 2) is now on continuous production with all five wells flowing water at excellent rates. The pilot will be on production for an extended period to de-water and lower the pressure in the surrounding coal to achieve a commercial gas flow.

6. Review of operations (continued)

Glenaras Gas Project (ATP 2019) - GLL 100% (continued)

Figure 2.

Excellent progress has been made by Jemena on stakeholder engagements, government approvals and aerial surveys for the proposed Galilee gas pipeline which would deliver gas produced by Galilee to the east coast market. Jemena has passed significant milestone for the Galilee Gas Pipeline route connecting the Glenaras Gas Project to the east coast gas market with the formal lodgement of the Voluntary Environmental Impact Statement Application and EPBC Act referral with the relevant authorities.

Galilee has a deep commitment to working with community stakeholders in the areas within which we operate. Galilee operates on the basis of mutual respect and co-existence with all of its stakeholders as the key pillar of its community relations with government, landowners and the broader community.

Galilee's strategy is to become a material supplier of gas to the eastern Australian gas market and the east coast gas thematic continues to be a powerful one for the Company. The east coast gas market is structurally short of gas and additional supply is required to meet the market over the intermediate to long term, providing opportunity to Galilee. Over the mid to long term it is highly unlikely that existing gas supply will be sufficient to meet total gas demand on the east coast, resulting in the potential for import parity pricing for both domestic and export gas sales. With coal seam gas ("CSG") production in Queensland increasing significantly over the past few years in response to LNG exports, this is a clear demonstration of the world class quality of Australian CSG and underpins the Company's focus on CSG.

Galilee has expanded its portfolio of gas assets and diversified its position after having been officially granted operatorship and 100% working interest in the exploration permit ATP 2043 in the overlapping Surat and Bowen Basins, effective 1st August 2019 for a term of 6 years. The acreage was made available for tender as part of the Queensland Government's recent release of new petroleum resource areas, designed to stimulate oil and gas exploration in Queensland and provide sustainable benefits to local communities and the broader Queensland economy. ATP 2043 is a 384km2, high quality exploration tenure with dual prospectivity within both the world-class Walloon Subgroup CSG fairway and the oil and gas prone eastern flank of the Taroom Trough in the Bowen Basin. This is a continuation of the Company's strategy of maintaining high quality acreage at 100% working interest, with the added advantage of exposure to both conventional and unconventional targets in a different, high quality Basin, proximate to existing infrastructure and with clear channels to market.

Galilee successfully completed two targeted, private placements to sophisticated and institutional investors raising approximately $18.7 million. The company continues to maintain a strong cash position with no debt.
