Namibian Interests - Competent Person's Report

Global Petroleum Limited (AIM: GBP, ASX: GBP) is pleased to announce that the recently commissioned Competent Person's Report ("CPR") on its Namibian Blocks 1910B and 2010A (Licence PEL0029) has now been completed by independent consultants AGR TRACS International Ltd ("AGR

TRACS").

Prospective resources have been calculated on three prospects: Global's primary structure, Gemsbok, as well as Dik-Dik and Lion. A total of 3.66 billion bbls of unrisked gross technical prospective resources (Best Estimate) has been estimated in the Blocks. Global holds a working interest of 85% and is operator for the Licence.

Of particular note, the main Aptian Carbonate reservoir at Gemsbok has been estimated to have Best Estimate unrisked gross prospective resources of 1.1 billion barrels of oil with a probability of success ("POS") of one in eight. The POS for the deeper Syn-Rift section at Gemsbok and the Lion and Dik-Dik prospects is lower than the main Carbonate resource at Gemsbok but the oil resource numbers are significant.

Gemsbok, Lion and Dik-Dik are identified as dip-closed structural traps, which the Company regards as particularly compelling since previous large prospects identified by other Namibian operators have mainly been stratigraphic in nature.

Oil seeps seen on satellite close to the mapped prospects and work on source rock maturity based on the recent 2D seismic mapping has further reduced the play risk, and it is expected that the POS will increase further following the planned acquisition of 3D seismic data.

Global's CEO, Peter Hill, commented: "We are delighted that AGR TRACS has confirmed the high level of prospectivity which we have identified on PEL0029 generally, and the Gemsbok prospect in particular which contains unrisked Best Estimate prospective resources of over a billion barrels.

Following the Namibian Ministry of Mines and Energy's agreement last year to extend Phase 2 of our

Licence and assurance of subsequent entry into Phase 3, we now have the time and flexibility to find the right partner to progress further this exciting acreage."

AGR TRACS Prospective Resource Estimates for PEL0029 are summarised in Table 1 below. The Prospective Resource Estimates have been estimated using probabilistic methods.

Note:

"Risk Factor" for Prospective Resources means the chance, or probability, of discovering hydrocarbons in sufficient quantity for them to be tested to the surface. This, then, is the chance or probability of the Prospective Resources maturing into a Contingent Resource. Where a prospect could contain either oil or gas the hydrocarbon type with the higher probability of being discovered has been listed in the table.

"Operator" is Global Petroleum Limited.

"Gross" are 100% of the resources attributable to the licence whilst "Net Attributable" are those attributable to Global

"MMbbls" - million barrels.

"Bscf" - billion standard cubic feet, 6,000 scf/boe, "boe" barrel of oil equivalent.

"Total…#" - implies totals have been derived by arithmetic summation without any probabilistic addition.

* Excludes area outside Global licence. All the listed prospects are located entirely within Global's licence, except approximately 21% of the Dik-Dik High Case.

Prospective Resources Cautionary Statement (in accordance with ASX Listing Rules): The estimated quantities of petroleum that may be recovered by the application of a future development project(s) relate to undiscovered accumulations. These estimates have both an associated risk of discovery and a risk of development. Further exploration appraisal and evaluation is required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially moveable hydrocarbons.

About Global's Namibian Interests

Global holds an 85% participating interest in the Licence, which was originally issued on 3 December 2010 and then covered 11,730 square kilometres located offshore Namibia in water depths ranging from 1,300 metres to 3,000 metres (Figure 1). In December 2015, the Company entered into Phase 2, making a mandatory relinquishment of 50% of the Licence Area. Phase 2 was for a duration of 24 months. The Minimum Work Programme for the one year extension (to December 2018) of Phase 2 is the acquisition of 600 square kilometres of 3D seismic data, contingent upon Global concluding a farm-out agreement with a third party to fund the acquisition of the 3D data. If the 3D acquisition is not completed during the Phase 2 extension period, it may be carried over into Phase 3. During Phase 3, the commitment is to drill one well (depth and location to be agreed) unless the Ministry and Global agree that circumstances dictate otherwise.
