Further to the 27 September 2005 Open Briefing, ROC advises that the majority of
its Drilling Programme for the period October 2005 - March 2006 remains
unchanged including the 7-8 Cliff Head Development wells plus platform
installation.

The attached updated Drilling Programme* includes the following modifications:

*   Up to 12 exploration/appraisal wells are now scheduled to be drilled during
    the period.


*   Two of the 12 exploration/appraisal wells (Equatorial Guinea and New
    Zealand) may be subject to further delays due to rig availability.


*   Two development wells for the Blane Oil Field are now scheduled to commence
    January 2006.

Any changes to the Drilling Programme will be updated accordingly.
