Offers contracting opportunities over the course of a full cycle. Offers contracting opportunities over the course of a full cycle. Offers contracting opportunities over the course of a full cycle. Example

Mature Properties (Shallow Water) - Camelot Field H E L I X E N E R G Y S O L U T I O N S Strategy in Action Mature property no longer wanted by major operator Value will be unlocked by rejuvenation of existing production and tie back of nearby PUD reserves. Important first North Sea transaction.

H E L I X E N E R G Y S O L U T I O N S H E L I X E N E R G Y S O L U T I O N S Mature Properties (Deepwater) - Phoenix Field Strategy in Action Production facility on Typhoon Field destroyed during 2005 hurricane season. Field acquired and renamed Phoenix. Value will be unlocked by the use of a mobile production unit that should produce several fields sequentially over its lifetime. Upside from several satellite prospects that can be drilled with the Q4000.

H E L I X E N E R G Y S O L U T I O N S Deepwater Developments - Noonan & Danny Fields Strategy in Action Low risk, mid water drilling prospects generated in-house. Discoveries of at least 150 Bcfe announced in 1H/07 Fields relatively close to existing infrastructure and therefore can be developed cheaply and quickly. Expected F&D cost < $2.00 Mcfe. First Production within 18 months of discovery. We have several similar prospects that can be 'Exploited' using our services group.
