Morocco prospect map
• Twelve well drilling programme is underway and targeting 15
bcf (gross unrisked mean prospective resources1) across a
diverse set of opportunities:
o Eight lower risk biogenic gas targets located near
existing infrastructure in Gharb Centre;
o Two moderate risk wells, a step out exploration well in
the Beni Malek (BMK-1) cluster area, with good follow-
on potential, and, a moderate risk prospect at OYF-2
with good volume potential. Prospects here are
lookalikes to previous discoveries in Sebou production
area;
o Up to two higher risk exploration prospects at Lalla
Mimouna re-testing the Lalla Mimouna thermogenic
gas play at LNB-2 and LMS-2.
• Wells in Lalla Mimouna, OYF-2 and BMK-1 are play opening
and could transform the growth of SDX’s Moroccan
business.
• Target to drill, complete and connect wells for an average
cost of c.US$2.0 million per well.
• 2018 independent CPR1 identified prospect inventory in
excess of 100 bcf (gross unrisked mean prospective

The forward‐looking information contained in this presentation is as of the date hereof and SDX does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the
included forward‐looking information, except as required by applicable law.
Oil and Gas Advisory
Certain disclosure in this news release constitute “anticipated results” for the purposes of National Instrument 51-101 – Standards for Oil and Gas Activities of the Canadian
Securities Administrators because the disclosure in question may, in the opinion of a reasonable person, indicate the potential value or quantities of resources in respect of the
Company’s resources or a portion of its resources. Without limitation, the anticipated results disclosed in this news release include estimates of volume, flow rate, production
rates, porosity and pay thickness attributable to the resources of the Company. Such estimates have been prepared by management of the Company and have not been prepared
or reviewed by an independent qualified reserves evaluator or auditor. Anticipated results are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those described above and
various geological, technical, operational, engineering, commercial and technical risks. In addition, the geotechnical analysis and engineering to be conducted in respect of such
resources is not complete. Such risks and uncertainties may cause the anticipated results disclosed herein to be inaccurate. Actual results may vary, perhaps materially.
Prospective Resources
The prospective resource estimates disclosed herein have been prepared by an independent qualified reserves evaluator, ERC Equipoise Limited, in accordance with the
Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook. The prospective resources disclosed herein have an effective date of 1 st January 2019. Prospective resources are those quantities of
gas, estimated as of given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations through future development projects. As prospective resources, there is no
certainty that any portion of the resources will be discovered. The chance that an exploration project will result in a discovery is referred to as the "chance of discovery" as
defined by the management of the Company. There is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources discussed herein; though any
discovery that is commercially viable would be tied back to the Company’s pipeline in Morocco and then connected to customers’ facilities within 9 to 12 months of discovery.
Based upon the economic analysis undertaken on any discovery, management has attributed an associated chance of development of 100%. Anticipated results are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties, including various geological, technical, operational, engineering, commercial and technical risks. In addition, the geotechnical analysis and
engineering to be conducted in respect of such resources is not complete. Such risks and uncertainties may cause the anticipated results disclosed herein to be inaccurate.
Actual results may vary, perhaps materially.

Disclaimer
There are uncertainties associated with the volume estimates of the prospective resources disclosed herein, due to the level of information available on prospective resources,
but ranges are defined based on data from the Company’s nearby existing analogous wells. Some of the risk and uncertainties are outlined below:
• Petrophysical parameters of the sand/reservoir;
• Fluid composition, especially heavy end hydrocarbons;
• Accurate estimation of reservoir conditions (pressure and temperature);
• Reservoir drive mechanism;
• Potential well deliverability; and
• The thickness and lateral extent of the reservoir section, currently based on 3D seismic data.
Use of the term “boe” or the term “MMscf” may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A “boe” conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl and a “Mcf” conversion ratio of 1bbl: 6
Mcf are based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
