Mississippi Lime
The Mississippi Lime
Mississippi Lime
ü The Mississippian limestone oil and liquids rich gas bearing system (“Mississippi Lime”) is found in northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas
ü Exploitation not exploration – application of contemporary horizontal drilling and completion techniques to a conventional carbonate reservoir
ü Covering in excess of 17mm acres in northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas
ü Chesapeake kicks off activity in the play in 2007 with the Howell and Serenity wells in Woods County, Oklahoma
ü Play continues to expand, with more than 480 horizontal wells drilled in the play to date
- c. 60 rigs operating in the play at present drilling horizontals wells
www.redforkenergy.com.au 6
A Premier On-shore US Liquids Play ü Vast Resource Potential
ü Proven, commercial trend which has produced from thousands of vertical wells for more than 50 years
ü Very well understood due to the large amount of well data
- provides for extensive reservoir control through area correlation and facies distribution and continuity
ü Shallow depths c. 4,500 to 7,000 ft.
ü Gross thickness of up to 700 ft., with productive interval typically 50 to 200 ft. thick
- very good porosity and permeability has been confirmed from existing vertical production
- naturally fractured, and horizontal drilling increases the probability of encountering more fractures
ü High liquids content c. 70% (Eastern Limb) - Produces light sweet crude and high BTU gas
ü Abundant industry equipment and extensive infrastructure to service the play

Summary
ü Red Fork Energy continues to build on its significant position in one of the premier on-shore US horizontal liquids plays
- additional high-grade acreage has been added and leasing initiatives continue
- initial development wells successful with positive initial flows confirming quality of the reservoir in the oilier part of the play
- the play has become a key focus area for several leading US independents
- competitive economics when compared against the more established horizontal plays
ü Focus on initial Mississippi development program, participate in non-operated opportunities, establish production and initial reserve position and continue to expand the current acreage position
ü Red Fork presents an early stage entry into one of the most exciting new liquids plays in the US and is underpinned by core producing assets
