i3 has contracted Gardline Limited to conduct a site survey for its 2019 and 2020 drilling program plus the pipeline route for its Liberator Phase I development. Works have begun and are expected to complete during the month of March and are being conducted by the Ocean Observer survey vessel.

The survey will cover the locations of Liberator's Phase I production drill centre and associated development wells, in addition to the planned export pipeline route. Also being surveyed are the Liberator A3 and Serenity S1 appraisal well locations.

The survey will enable the Company to complete its Environmental Statement and provide the necessary engineering and environmental data to finalise its planning for its expected 2019 three-well drilling campaign and for inclusion in the Liberator Field Development Plan ("FDP").

Majid Shafiq, CEO of i3 Energy commented:
"With our recent fundraise, we are delighted to now be driving operational progress for i3's operated three-well drilling campaign in the Greater Liberator Area in Summer 2019. The Directors and management team see massive opportunity in the Company and look forward to unlocking Liberator's potential through the drill bit."
