COLD BOXES BEING PRE-COOLED IN PREPARATION FOR GAS

Renergen is pleased to announce strong progress in commissioning of Phase 1 of the Virginia
Gas Project. The cold boxes are currently in the process of being purged and pre-cooled using
liquid nitrogen, which is an important process in preparing the units for acceptance of gas from
the field in the coming week. A major advantage of using nitrogen to cool the system is that it
simultaneous purges the system of any oxygen rich air, which significantly reduces risks
associated with fires during start up. Further testing is underway as part of the commissioning
process and the Company will inform the market as milestones are reached.
We have already completed and commissioned fire protection, Instrument air systems and
various smaller subsystems. The conduction oil system is the next major item to be completed
for process unit start up.

“The team is being extremely thorough and diligent in making sure every step in the
commissioning process is done correctly. A key focus area which has been successfully
completed is the testing and retesting of the fire systems, particularly in light of all the recent plant
failures globally. Seeing the plant at cryogenic temperatures is such an amazing sight, knowing
that this is soon to become the first commercial plant of its kind in South Africa,” said CEO,
Stefano Marani.
