Oilex Ltd has received endorsement from the Government of India for the sale of gas from the Bhandut-3 well, which is located within the Bhandut Field. This is a critical milestone for returning the field to production, supplying gas to the local market and generating positive cash flow for the Company from a previously idle asset.

Now that endorsement of the gas sales agreement has been received, the Bhandut Joint Venture will proceed to establish the appropriate production facilities for Bhandut-3. This will include a compressed natural gas (CNG) loading facility that will enable CNG "bullet" trucks to be loaded at site for transportation of the gas to end users. Bhandut-3 gas is "lean" and therefore no material condensate production is expected.
