Paris, 4 September 2015 No. 17-15 Force majeure situation: Interruption of the flow of crude oil on the 12''pipeline in Gabon

MAUREL & PROM has been notified by the Association Coucal, operator of the 12'' pipeline, of a force majeure situation leading to an interruption of the flow of crude oil in the section between Coucal and the junction with the 18-inch Rabi Nord pipeline.

This situation, resulting from a break in the 12-inch pipeline in a forested area 2.5 km from

Coucal, has led to Maurel & Prom Gabon completely shutting down its production. According to the operator, production should resume within a week at the latest.

The current production capacity of the Ezanga permit producing fields (M&P operator, 80%) is around 29,000 bopd. The Group will inform its shareholders when production resumes.
