The AKD08 ("Doto") Exploration well is located to the south-west of the
Company's producing Doris field and north of its Dione oil discovery in
Kazakhstan. The well is designed to target several potential zones, including
the Lower Cretaceous sandstone and Upper Jurassic carbonate sequences as
proven in Doris, and also the deeper Triassic sequence which gave significant
hydrocarbon shows in nearby wells, including the Company's AKD01 well (Doris oil
discovery). Prospectivity may also exist in the Jurassic sandstone sequence
which flowed oil in the Dione (AKD03) well.
