Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2011


1.         Organization and Nature of Operations
 
The Company is engaged in the pursuit of petroleum and natural gas through exploration and development in India, Israel and Colombia.  The Company is a Delaware corporation with common stock listed and traded on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “GGR”.
 
As of June 30, 2011, the Company has not achieved its planned principal operations from its oil and gas exploration activities which commenced on August 29, 2003.  Accordingly, the Company’s activities are considered to be those of a “Development Stage Enterprise”.  Among the disclosures required by this status is that the Company’s financial statements be identified as those of a development stage enterprise.  In addition, the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows are required to disclose all activity since the Company’s date of inception.  The Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures as those of a development stage enterprise until such time that the Company achieves planned principal operations.

2.         Going Concern
 
To date, the Company has not achieved its planned principal operations and is considered to be in the development stage.  The Company incurs cash outflows from operations, and at this time all exploration activities and overhead expenses are financed by way of equity issuance, oil and gas sales incidental to the exploration process and interest income.  The recoverability of the costs incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon achieving significant commercial production or sale.
 
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from its oil and natural gas interests in the future.  The Company’s current operations are dependent upon the adequacy of its current assets to meet its current expenditure requirements and the accuracy of management’s estimates of those requirements.  Should those estimates be materially incorrect, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be impaired.   The Company’s financial statements as at and for the period ended June 30, 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  During the period ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $3.2 million, used approximately $3.8 million of cash flow in its operating activities and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $50.8 million.  These matters raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company expects to incur expenditures to further its exploration programs.  The Company’s existing cash balance at June 30, 2011 and the anticipated cash flow from operating activities are not sufficient to satisfy its current obligations and meet its exploration commitments of $12.6 million and $25.8 million, over the twelve months ending June 30, 2012 and the two and one half years ending December 31, 2013, respectively.  The Company is considering various alternatives to remedy any future shortfall in capital.  The Company deems it necessary to raise capital for continued exploration and development expenditures through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, which could include the sale of oil and gas interests or participation arrangements in oil and gas interests.   There can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration block acquisition and/or exploration and development expenditures.
 
As at June 30, 2011, the Company has working capital of approximately $2.3 million which is available for the Company’s future operations.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and the Company is not able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities, commitments (as described in note 11) and contingencies (as described in note 12) in the normal course of operations, these unaudited consolidated financial statements would require adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.
 
These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

3.         Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have not been audited and are presented in United States dollars unless otherwise noted and have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all of the normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from inception of August 21, 2002 to June 30, 2011.
 
Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
 
Principles of consolidation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned.  A significant portion of the Company’s activities conducted jointly with others and the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company’s proportionate interest in such activities.  Investment in companies where the company has the ability to exercise significant influence but not control, are accounted for using the equity method.  All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of estimates
The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from these estimated amounts due to factors such as fluctuations in interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation levels and commodity prices, changes in economic conditions and legislative and regulatory changes.
 
Significant estimates with regard to the unaudited consolidated financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated cost and timing related to asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and contingencies.

4.         Restricted Deposits
 
The Company’s PSCs relating to exploration blocks onshore and offshore India contain provisions whereby the joint venture participants must provide the Government of India a bank guarantee in the amount of 35% of the participant’s share of the minimum work program for a particular phase, to be undertaken annually during the budget period April 1 to March 31.  These bank guarantees have been provided to the Government of India and serve as guarantees for the performance of such minimum work programs and are in the form of irrevocable letters of credit.  These irrevocable letters of credit have been secured by term deposits of the Company in the same amount.  In the second quarter of 2011, Export Development Canada (EDC) commenced providing the performance security guarantees on behalf of the Company against the bank guarantees provided to the Government of India for the period of April 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012.

11.         Commitments (continued)
 
In June 2010, Oil India Limited, the operator of the KG Onshore Block approved an increase of the Company’s participating interest from 10% to 20%, subject to Government of India approval.  If approval is granted, the Company’s commitments would increase by $1.8 million in the remainder of 2011, $2.3 million in 2012 and $5.2 million in 2013.  To date, the approval has not been granted.
 
The Company has office lease commitments in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and Herzliya, Israel which expire January 2013 and July 2012, respectively.

12.         Contingencies
 
GSPC Dispute
GSPC, the operator of the KG Offshore Block in which the Company has a net 5% carried interest, has been seeking from the Company, payment of its pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be the Company’s pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and asserts that the Company is required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
GSPC advised the Company on November 5, 2008 that the minimum work program for the KG Offshore Block had been completed in September 2008.  Further, GSPC elected to undertake an additional work program over and above the minimum work program as either Joint Operations or as Exclusive Operations under the terms of the PSC and advised that the Company must elect whether to participate in these additional exploration activities as a Joint Operation or alternatively, GSPC would conduct these drilling activities as Exclusive Operations, as defined in the PSC.
 
On November 13, 2008 the Company advised GSPC that it exercised its right to participate in the drilling operations proposed in the November 5, 2008 GSPC letter as a Joint Operation under the terms of the PSC and Joint Operating Agreement and  pursuant to the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC.  As such, the Company continues to be of the view that it is carried for 100% of its entire share of any and all costs during the additional exploration phase prior to the start of initial commercial production and that the Carried Interest Agreement extends through the exploration period of the PSC.
 
In August 2010 GSPC advised the Company that it is of the view that the technical and other advice provided by the Company in the preparation of the parties’ original bid document submitted to the Government of India in 2002 under NELP-III has proven to be incorrect causing GSPC’s costs in the project to exceed its estimate.  GSPC asserts that by reason of the foregoing the Carried Interest Agreement between the parties is void and consequently the PSC to which the Government of India is party and the Joint Operating Agreement are also void.
 
The Company has advised GSPC that under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement (the terms of which are also incorporated into the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement) they have no right to such payment under the Carried Interest Agreement.  The Company has advised GSPC that the Company fulfilled its obligations under the Carried Interest Agreement to provide extensive technical assistance without any further remuneration other than the carried interest, all in accordance with the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement.  The Company obtained the opinion of Indian legal counsel who has advised that under the terms of the agreements between the parties, and in particular the Carried Interest Agreement, the Company is not liable to pay any amount to GSPC for costs or expenses incurred or otherwise before reaching the stage of commercial production.
 
The Company disputes these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and continues to state that the Company holds a gross 10% interest in the KG Offshore Block (including the 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  In a KG Offshore Block Management Committee meeting held in October, 2010, the Management Committee (of which the Government of India is a member) advised GSPC to resolve these issues with the Company at the earliest and requested GSPC to maintain the status quo until the issues are resolved.

12.         Contingencies (continued)
 
Based upon the audited accounts of the joint venture for the KG Offshore Block, the total costs incurred to March 31, 2010 were $1.447 billion (10% being $144.7 million of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).   Further, based upon the budget for the fiscal year April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011 and fiscal year April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012, total costs projected for the period April 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011 were $804.4 million (10% being $80.4 million).  Therefore, management estimates that the amount of GSPC’s claim as of June 30, 2011 to be approximately $225.1 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  The Company disputes this assertion of GSPC.
 
The Company intends to vigorously protect its contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  In September 2007, the Company commenced discussions with GSPC in an effort to reach an amicable resolution.  A number of draft settlement proposals have been put forward by the Company to GSPC seeking to settle this dispute amicably.  Subsequent to the October 2010 Management Committee meeting the Company’s management has again met with senior management of GSPC to continue its effort to reach an amicable resolution.  However, no settlement agreement has been reached as of August 12, 2011 and there can be no assurance that this matter will be settled amicably.
 
Export Development Canada
In the second quarter of 2011, Export Development Canada (EDC) commenced providing the performance security guarantees on behalf of the Company against the bank guarantees provided to the Government of India for the period of April 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012.  These bank guarantees are in the form of irrevocable letters of credit and are provided to the Government of India in the amount of 35% of the participant’s share of the minimum work program for a particular phase and serve as guarantees for the performance of such minimum work programs.
 
In consideration of EDC providing the performance security guarantees, the Company has agreed to fully indemnify EDC against all claims and demands made in respect of these performance security guarantees.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Overview
We are engaged, through our subsidiaries, in the exploration for and development of oil and natural gas reserves.  At June 30, 2011, we have not yet achieved our planned principal operations from our oil and gas exploration activities which commenced on August 29, 2003.  Accordingly, our activities are considered to be those of a “Development Stage Enterprise”.  The recoverability of the costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon achieving commercial production and sale of hydrocarbons, our ability to obtain sufficient financing to fulfill our obligations under the production sharing or other contracts we are a party to with respect to oil and natural gas exploration and development activities in India, Israel and Colombia and upon future profitable operations.  At present, our activities are being undertaken in four geological basins located offshore and onshore in India, one geological basin located offshore Israel and one geological basin located onshore in Colombia where reserves of oil or natural gas are believed by our management to exist.
 
The exploration rights pursuant to PSCs we have entered into with the Government of India are located in the following areas:
 
·  
The Krishna Godavari Basin offshore and onshore in the State of Andhra Pradesh in south eastern India;
·  
The Cambay Basin onshore in the State of Gujarat in western India;
·  
The Deccan Syneclise Basin onshore in the State of Maharashtra in west central India; and
·  
The Bikaner-Nagaur Basin onshore in the State of Rajasthan in north western India.
 
The exploration rights pursuant to licenses we have been granted in Israel are located in the Levantine Basin located off the coast of Israel with the licenses varying in distances between 6 and 25 miles offshore.
 
We have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with respect to two exploration blocks located in the Putumayo Basin onshore in southwest Colombia.
 
All of the exploration activities in which we are a participant should be considered highly speculative.
 
Unless the context should otherwise require, references to “we,” “us” and “our” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to GeoGlobal Resources Inc. and our wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries.  GeoGlobal Resources (Barbados) Inc. is our wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated under the Companies Act of Barbados that is the contracting party under our four PSCs covering four blocks in the Cambay Basin, our two PSCs covering two blocks in the Deccan Syneclise Basin, our two PSCs covering two blocks in the Bikaner-Nagaur Basin and our PSC covering the KG Onshore Block in the Krishna Godavari Basin, all of which are located in India.  GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc. is our wholly-owned subsidiary continued under the Companies Act of Barbados that is the contracting party under our PSC covering our KG Offshore Block in the Krishna Godavari Basin in India and the Sara, Myra and Samuel licenses in the Levantine Basin in Israel.
 
The following management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operation should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the more detailed information including our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.  This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results may differ materially from the results and business plans discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that may cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed in "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.  For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes and the Management's Discussion and Analysis thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
We started our first production as non-operator from one field in the Tarapur block in May 2009.  Our interest in the proved reserves in this field is 55 MBbls of oil and 155 MMcf of natural gas and probable reserves of 409 MBbls of oil and 595 MMcf of natural gas as at December 31, 2010 based upon an independent reserve report dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd., Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we incurred a net loss of $1.6 million compared with a net loss of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we incurred a net loss of $3.1 million compared with a net loss of $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010

The calculation of barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) is based on a conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (bbl) of crude oil to estimate relative energy content.  This conversion may be misleading, particularly when used in isolation, since the 6Mcf:1 bbl ratio is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent the value equivalency at the wellhead.
 
Oil and Gas Sales
All of our oil and gas sales are derived from production in India.  With the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee, three wells began production in mid-May 2009, two in September 2009 and one in January 2010.  There are ten additional wells which are drilled, tested and awaiting tie-in to the oil tank storage facilities.  Further, associated natural gas from one gas well is being contained and sold while awaiting approval of a development plan for completion of a pipeline.
 
Oil and gas sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $108,000 as compared to $235,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  This decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in the oil and gas production for the three months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same quarter for 2010.
 
Oil and gas sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $251,000 as compared to $426,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  This decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in the oil and gas production for the six months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same period for 2010.
 
Oil sales are currently based on the spot price based on discount to the Nigeria Bonny Light Crude bench mark.  To date, none of our production has been hedged. All our associated natural gas is sold to local markets at a firm contract price of $7.00 per Mcf adjusted for rebate/premium on account of calorific value.
 
Interest Income
Interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $9,800 as compared with $11,000 for the same period in 2010.  This decrease is primarily attributed to lower cash balances and restricted deposits available for investment.  The average cash balance and restricted deposits during the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $10.0 million compared with $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
Interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $20,000 as compared with $30,000 for the same period in 2010.  This decrease is primarily attributed to lower cash balances and restricted deposits available for investment.  The average cash balance and restricted deposits during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $11.1 million compared with $19.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Operating
Operating costs for the three months ended June 30, 2011 are $34,000 or $22.33 per BOE compared to $40,000 or $11.26 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  This decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in oil and gas production for the three months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same quarter for 2010.  The operating costs include handling and processing charges, transportation costs and utilities, maintenance and tank rental charges and contain a fixed and variable portion.
 
Operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are $68,000 or $20.76 per BOE compared to $102,000 or $13.82 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  This decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in oil and gas production for the six months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same period for 2010.  The operating costs include handling and processing charges, transportation costs and utilities, maintenance and tank rental charges and contain a fixed and variable portion.
 
General and Administrative
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, our general and administrative expenses increased to $1,220,000 from $928,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  These general and administrative expenses include costs related to the corporate head office including administrative salaries and services, directors’ fees, rent and office costs, insurance, bank guarantee fees, NYSE Amex listing and filing fees, investor relation services and transfer agent fees and services.  This increase is mostly attributable to an increase in the Directors’ and Special Committee fees by $88,000 combined with an increase in salaries and benefits of $62,000 mostly related to restructuring of our management team which was previously included in consulting fees and an increase in travel and hotel costs by $62,000 due to increased activity.  Stock-based compensation costs increased by $100,000 to $246,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $146,000 for the comparative three months in 2010.  These compensation costs are for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and directors which are being expensed over their respective vesting periods of the related option grants.  Further, there was a general increase in our general and administrative costs due to our increased activity in Israel, offset by overhead recoveries of $105,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to nil in the prior period.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our general and administrative expenses increased to $2,300,000 from $1,596,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  These general and administrative expenses include costs related to the corporate head office including administrative salaries and services, directors’ fees, rent and office costs, insurance, bank guarantee fees, NYSE Amex listing and filing fees, investor relation services and transfer agent fees and services.  This increase is mostly attributable to the following: Directors’ and Special Committee fees increased by $111,000, salaries and benefits increased by $307,000 mostly related to restructuring of our management team which was previously included in consulting fees and the inclusion of a new executive officer in March 2010 and travel and hotel costs increased by $58,000 due to increased activity.  Stock-based compensation costs increased by $241,000 to $490,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $249,000 for the comparative six months in 2010.  These compensation costs are for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and directors which are being expensed over their respective vesting periods of the related option grants.  Further, there was a general increase in our general and administrative costs due to our increased activity in Israel, offset by overhead recoveries of $105,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to nil in the prior period.
 
Consulting Fees
Consulting fees for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $232,000, an increase of $44,000 from $188,000 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.  Consulting fees include costs incurred in employing various technical and corporate consultants who advised us on a variety of matters.
 
This increase is mostly a result of an increase in fees paid to consultants to assist in our financing efforts offset by the restructuring of a member of our management team whose fees are now paid as salary versus consulting fees.
 
Consulting fees for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $427,000, an increase of $56,000 from $371,000 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Consulting fees include costs incurred in employing various technical and corporate consultants who advised us on a variety of matters.
 
This increase is mostly a result of an increase in stock-based compensation of $43,000 compared to the comparative period in 2010.  The remainder of the increase is related to fees paid to consultants to assist in our financing efforts offset by the restructuring of a member of our management team whose fees are now paid as salary versus consulting fees.
 
Professional Fees
Professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $198,000 compared with $64,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  This increase is mostly a result of professional fees incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2011 paid to our legal advisors due to increased activity.  Professional fees include general counsel, audit and review costs and tax advisors to assist with compliance.
 

 
Page 20


Professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $390,000 compared with $180,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  This increase is mostly a result of professional fees incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2011 paid to our legal advisors due to increased activity.  Professional fees include general counsel, audit and review costs and tax advisors to assist with compliance.
 
Depletion and depreciation
Depletion and depreciation decreased to $81,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $90,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2010.  As a result of our production from the Tarapur 1 field we had depletion of $70,000 or $45.47 per BOE and depreciation of $11,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to depletion of $77,000 or $21.85 per BOE and depreciation of $13,000 for the same three months in 2010.  The increase in depletion rate per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from the three months ended June 30, 2010 is mostly a result of a decrease in proved reserves as at June 30, 2011 as compared to proved reserves as at June 30, 2010 based on an updated independent reserve report dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd.
 
Depletion and depreciation decreased to $175,000 June 30, 2011 from $198,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2010.  As a result of our production from the Tarapur 1 field we had depletion of $153,000 or $46.55 per BOE and depreciation of $22,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to depletion of $167,000 or $22.54 per BOE and depreciation of $31,000 for the same six months in 2010.  The increase in depletion rate per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from the six months ended June 30, 2010 is mostly a result of a decrease in proved reserves as at June 30, 2011 as compared to proved reserves as at June 30, 2010 based on an updated independent reserve report dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd.
 
Other
We capitalized certain overhead costs directly related to our exploration activities in India.  During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we capitalized overhead costs totaling $182,000 as compared to $132,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2010.  Included in the amounts above are stock-based compensation costs capitalized of $87,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared with $49,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we capitalized overhead costs totaling $374,000 as compared to $245,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Included in the amounts above are stock-based compensation costs capitalized of $185,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared with $55,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
 
The treatment of capitalized overhead costs remained consistent with the comparable quarter and includes costs relating to personnel, consultants, their travel and stock-based compensation directly associated with the advancement of our oil and gas interests.
 
Reserve Report
As a result of the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee in April 2009 and the completion of an independent reserve report dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, we claim reserves in the Tarapur 1 field as at December 31, 2010 as follows:

Proved Reserves
Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether determinable or probabilistic methods are used for the estimates.  The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
 
Probable Reserves
Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered.

Liquidity
Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through the issuance of common stock as well as proceeds from the exercise of warrants and options to purchase common equity.
 
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from our oil and natural gas interests in the future. Our current operations are dependent upon the adequacy of our current assets to meet our current expenditure requirements and the accuracy of management’s estimates of those requirements.  Should those estimates be materially incorrect, our ability to continue as a going concern will be impaired.  Our unaudited consolidated financial statements as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  We have a history of incurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operations.  These matters may raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
At June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents were $6.7 million (December 31, 2010 - $7.8 million). The majority of this balance is being held in U.S. funds, of which $2.2 million is held in term deposits.  At June 30, 2011, we had current assets of $23.3 million and current liabilities of $21.0 million, or working capital of $2.3 million.  Our current assets as of June 30, 2011 include $734,000 of restricted deposits which we expect will be released from escrow on or before September 30, 2011.
 
We will incur exploration and other expenses under the terms of our PSCs to further our exploration programs.  Our existing cash balance at June 30, 2011 and our anticipated cash flow from operating activities are not sufficient to satisfy our current obligations and meet our exploration commitments of $12.6 million and $25.8 million, over the twelve months ending June 30, 2012 and the two and one half years ending December 31, 2013, respectively.  We expect to continue to be dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital in order to pursue our business plan.  In the event we are unable to raise sufficient capital on acceptable terms and at the times required to meet our exploration and other commitments during these respective periods, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration, appraisal and development expenditures and possibly curtail other of our activities.
 
We are considering various alternatives with respect to raising additional capital to remedy any future shortfall in capital but to date have made no specific plans or arrangements. We deem it necessary to raise capital through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, including participation arrangements that may be available for continued exploration expenditures. Because of the early stage of our operations and our lack of any material oil and natural gas reserves, there can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration, appraisal and development expenditures.  We believe that we will be able to raise additional capital which combined with our available cash resources will be sufficient to maintain our current level of activities through the next fiscal year.
 
We believe at this time that the outcome of the GSPC Carried Interest dispute will not have a material effect on our liquidity.
 
Our overall cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.1 million from $7.8 million at December 31, 2010 to $6.7 million at June 30, 2011.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash and cash equivalents can be attributed to the following activities:
 
Our net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $3.8 million as compared to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The use of cash is mainly related to general and administrative costs, consulting and professional fees and operating costs, offset by oil and gas sales and interest earned on our short-term deposits.
 
Our net cash provided by our investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2.7 million as compared to $8.2 million used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010.  This decrease is consistent with the decrease in our exploration activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $3.3 million as compared to $4.7 million for exploration activities for the same period in 2010 combined with the recovery of our restricted deposits of $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to an increase in restricted deposit of $2.6 million for the same period in 2010 which can now be used towards general working capital.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $nil.  There were no private placement sales or exercise of options or warrants during the six months ended June 30, 2011 or 2010.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and we are not able to realize our assets and settle our liabilities, commitments and contingencies, as more fully described in our unaudited consolidated financial statements in the normal course of operations, our unaudited consolidated financial statements would require adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.  Our unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Capital Resources
We expect our exploration and development activities pursuant to our PSCs in India will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.   During 2011 and up to March 31, 2012, based on the current budgets in India, we anticipate drilling seven exploratory wells; drilling two core wells; acquiring, processing and interpreting 2,480 line kilometers of 2D seismic data; and acquiring, processing and interpreting 350 square kilometers of 3D seismic data as well as processing and interpreting an additional 400 square kilometers of 3D seismic data.  We further expect to tie-in additional oil wells in Tarapur along with the construction of a gas pipeline for the Tarapur G gas discovery and to continue with the construction of the gas gathering and production facilities together with further development drilling on the KG Offshore Block. Additional expenditures may be incurred in connection with additional exploratory, appraisal and development wells we may participate in. Also, if the Government of India approves the increase to our participating interest in the KG Onshore Block to 20%, our obligations to fund 3D seismic acquisition and exploratory drilling on the block will increase.
 
We expect our exploration activities pursuant to our licenses in Israel will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.  During 2011, we expect to complete the acquisition, processing and interpretation of 43 square kilometers of 3D seismic data in our Samuel license as well as to complete the processing and interpretation of 1,360 square kilometers of 3D seismic data covering our Sara and Myra licenses and also to commence drilling our first deepwater exploration well before the end of the year.
 
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
 
Contractual Obligations
Our minimum exploration commitments under our production sharing contracts and other future lease payments at June 30, 2011 were not substantially different than at December 31, 2010.
 
Carried Interest Dispute on the KG Offshore Block
GSPC has advised us that it is seeking from us payment of our pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be our pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and that we are required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
GSPC advised us on November 5, 2008 that the minimum work program for the KG Offshore Block had been completed in September 2008.  Further, GSPC elected to undertake an additional work program over and above the minimum work program as either Joint Operations or as Exclusive Operations under the terms of the PSC and advised us that we must elect whether to participate in these additional exploration activities as a Joint Operation or alternatively, GSPC would conduct these drilling activities as Exclusive Operations, as defined in the PSC.
 
On November 13, 2008 we advised GSPC that we exercised our right to participate in the drilling operations proposed in the November 5, 2008 GSPC letter as a Joint Operation under the terms of the PSC and Joint Operating Agreement and pursuant to the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC.  As such, we claim that we are carried for 100% of our entire share of any and all costs during the additional exploration phase prior to the start of initial commercial production and that the Carried Interest Agreement extends through the exploration period of the PSC.
 
In August 2010 GSPC advised us that it is of the view that the technical and other advice provided by us in the preparation of the parties’ original bid document submitted to the Government of India in 2002 under NELP-III has proven to be incorrect causing GSPC’s costs in the project to exceed its estimate.  GSPC asserts that by reason of the foregoing the Carried Interest Agreement between the parties is void and consequently the PSC to which the Government of India is party and the Joint Operating Agreement are also void.
 
We have advised GSPC that under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement (the terms of which are also incorporated into the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement), it has no right to such payment under the Carried Interest Agreement.  We have advised GSPC that we have fulfilled our obligations under the Carried Interest Agreement to provide extensive technical assistance without any further remuneration other than the carried interest, all in accordance with the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement.  In furtherance of our position, we have obtained the opinion of prominent Indian legal counsel who has advised us that, among other things, under the terms of the agreements between the parties, and in particular the Carried Interest Agreement, we are not liable to pay any amount to GSPC for either costs and expenses incurred or otherwise before reaching the stage of commercial production.

We dispute these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and continue to state that we hold a gross 10% interest in the KG Offshore Block (including the 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  In a KG Offshore Block Management Committee meeting held in October, 2010, the Management Committee (of which the Government of India is a member) advised GSPC to resolve these issues with us at the earliest and requested GSPC to maintain the status quo until the issues are resolved.
 
Based upon the audited accounts of the joint venture for the KG Offshore Block, the total costs incurred to March 31, 2010 were $1.447 billion (10% being $144.7 million of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  Further, based upon the budget for the fiscal year April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011 and fiscal year April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012, total costs projected for the period April 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011 were $804.4 million (10% being $80.4 million).  Therefore, we estimate that the amount of GSPC’s claim as of June 30, 2011 to be approximately $225.1 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  We dispute this assertion of GSPC.
 
We intend to vigorously protect our contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  In September 2007, we commenced discussions with GSPC in an effort to reach an amicable resolution.  A number of draft settlement proposals have been put forward by us to GSPC seeking to settle this dispute amicably.  Subsequent to the October 2010 Management Committee meeting we have again met with senior management of GSPC to continue our effort to reach an amicable resolution.  However, no settlement agreement has been reached as of August 12, 2011 and there can be no assurance that this matter will be settled amicably.
 
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  On a regular basis we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates.  We also discuss our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
 
We believe that the assumptions, judgments and estimates involved in the accounting for oil and gas accounting and impairment, asset retirement obligation and share-based payment arrangements have the greatest potential impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.  These areas are key components of our results of operations and are based on complex rules which require us to make judgments and estimates, so we consider these to be our critical accounting estimates. Historically, our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting estimates have not differed materially from actual results.
 
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in Item 7 of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2011, and have not changed materially since the filing of that document.
 
Recent Exploration Activities
Below is a summary description relating to certain material developments to our exploration activities.  For additional information and a more complete description of the PSCs to which we are a party, reference should be made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as well as our Current Reports on Form 8-K.
 
KG Offshore Block
During the six months ended June 30 2011, GSPC as operator of the KG Offshore Block commenced drilling an appraisal well (DDE-APP-1) on the Deen Dayal East portion of the block.  This well is being drilled to a target depth of 4,750 meters with the objective of appraising the hydrocarbon bearing sands of our KG-16 discovery well.  This latest well is the seventeenth well to be drilled in this block.
 
KG Onshore Block
OIL as operator of the KG Onshore Block commenced a 3D seismic acquisition program to acquire approximately 400 square kilometers of data, of which approximately 141.4 square kilometers had been acquired before the program was suspended due to weather. During the first quarter of 2011, the 3D seismic acquisition program recommenced and as such, a total of 216 square kilometers has been acquired as of June 30, 2011.   It is anticipated that the seismic acquisition and part of the processing will be completed on or before September 30, 2011.
 
Three priority locations as proposed have been reviewed and agreed to by the Operating Committee.  All of these locations have multiple prospects in both the shallower (Eocene – Miocene) and deeper (Cretaceous – Jurassic) zones.
 
In February 2011, a contract was awarded to RPS Energy, Canada (RPS) to provide the well engineering and wellsite supervision work associated with the planned drilling campaign on the KG Onshore Block.  OIL as operator of the KG Onshore Block has invited Expression of Interests from interested and reputable contractors for the supply of both casings and surface wellheads to support a High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) drilling campaign in an effort to commence drilling the first exploration well before the end of 2011.  Our commitment on this block is to drill twelve exploration wells to various depths between 2,000-5,000 meters.

Tarapur Block
Currently there is an approved field development plan which covers an area of approximately 2.14 square kilometers within the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area of approximately 9.7 square kilometers, and includes three existing discovery wells (Tarapur 1, Tarapur P and Tarapur 5) and three development wells (TD-1, TD-2 and TD-3).
 
All six wells are tied into the oil tank storage facilities by way of a gathering system and are on production.  There are ten additional wells in the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area which are drilled, tested and awaiting tie-in to the oil tank storage facilities.
 
Production from one gas well (Tarapur G) will commence upon approval of the field development plan which GSPC is currently in the process of preparing and filing pursuant to the provisions of the PSC.
 
Sanand/Miroli Block
In an Operating Committee Meeting held in December 2010, it was agreed that the consortium would apply for a Petroleum Mining Lease to cover three geometrical shapes surrounding the discoveries SE-8 (11.2 square kilometers), SE-4 cluster (18.2 square kilometers) and M1M6 (10.4 square kilometers).
 
On April 19, 2011, the Operating Committee approved the field development plan of the M1and M6 oil discoveries.
 
GSPC is continuing with the process of preparing and filing the necessary declarations of commerciality and field development plans pursuant to the provisions of the PSC in order to put all these wells into production.
 
Ankleshwar Block
The Phase I Minimum Work commitments have been met on this block and the consortium elected not to proceed to Phase II but rather develop the existing discoveries.  The consortium elected to retain a 172 square kilometer area around the two discoveries ANK-21 and ANK-40S.  A gas discovery (ANK-21S) has been notified within this 172 square kilometer area and GSPC is currently in the process of preparing and filing the necessary declarations of commerciality and field development plans pursuant to the provisions of the PSC in order to put all these wells into production.
 
RJ20 and RJ21 Blocks
The Phulasar-1 well commenced drilling on April 29, 2011 and was drilled to a total vertical depth of 1,525 meters to test the Jodhpur Sandstone and the Upper Carbonate group.  Wireline logs could not be recorded within the Upper Carbonate group as it suffered large mud loss while drilling the 12 - 1/4 inch section and Wireline formation tests within the Jodhpur formations did not confirm the presence of hydrocarbons. OIL as operator recommended not to lower the 5 - 1 /2 inch casing or to conduct a drill stem test program in this well.  Subsequent to June 30, 2011, the Phulasar-1 well has been abandoned.
 
The Phulasar-1 well was the third of a 20 well exploration program to be drilled over two Rajasthan blocks and the first well in the RJ20 Block. Subsequent to June 30, 2011, the drilling rig moved approximately 11 kilometers northeast of the Phulasar-1 well and commenced drilling the second prospect in the RJ20 Block, the Godu-1 well.  We have a 25% participating interest in each of the Rajasthan blocks.
 
Myra and Sara Licenses
On October 6, 2010 we commenced exploration activities in Israel by entering into a Joint Operating Agreement with a consortium involved in two existing oil and gas licenses located in deep water off the coast of Israel.  We became the operator of both the Myra and Sara licenses which commenced with the processing and interpretation of 1,360 square kilometers of previously acquired 3D seismic data.  Processing and interpretation of the 3D seismic data continued through the first six months of 2011.
 
The Israel Petroleum Commissioner’s Office granted us an extension for the planned drilling program on the Myra and Sara licenses to July 13, 2012.  Under the terms of the extension the partners were to present to the Petroleum Supervisor their final prospects to the Myra and Sara licenses by August 1, 2011, which has been presented timely, and begin drilling the first well by no later than March 31, 2012.  Drilling of the second well will commence after completion of the first well, which is to commence no later than July 1, 2012.
 
On July 1, 2011 we confirmed that the we have finalized the terms of the Assignment Agreement entered into with a third party whereby we took assignment of a third party's rights and obligations to an existing Drill Rig and Associated Services Contract for a Semi-submersible Drilling Rig.
 
The Noble Homer Ferrington is a 4th Generation Enhanced Pacesetter design Semi-submersible rig capable of drilling in water depths of up to approximately 2,100 meters (7,000 feet). The rig will be available to the Company on or after December 1, 2011.
 
Samuel License
On August 1, 2010 we were granted a license from the state of Israel where we became the co-operator of the Samuel license through our partnership with Adira Energy and a commonly owned Israeli company, Adira Geo Global Ltd.  A 43 square kilometer 3D seismic acquisition program commenced on June 17, 2011 and was completed on July 30, 2011.  Processing and interpretation of the 3D seismic data is expected to be complete by April 2012.

Market risk is the potential loss arising from changes in market rates and prices.  We are exposed to the impact of market fluctuations associated with the following:
 
Interest Rate Risk
We consider our exposure to interest rate risk to be immaterial.  Interest rate exposures relate entirely to our investment portfolio, as we do not have short-term or long-term debt.  Our investment objectives are focused on preservation of principal and liquidity.  We manage our exposure to market risks by limiting investments to high quality bank issuers at overnight rates, or government securities of the United States or Canadian federal governments such as Guaranteed Investment Certificates or Treasury Bills.  We do not hold any of these investments for trading purposes.  We do not hold investments in equity securities. We do not expect any material loss from cash equivalents and therefore we believe our interest rate exposure on invested funds is not material.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Substantially, all of our cash and cash equivalents are held in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar denominated securities.  Certain of our expenses are fixed or denominated by foreign currencies including the Canadian dollar and the Indian Rupees.  We are exposed to market risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates related to our transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
 
At June 30, 2011, we had not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments relating to our foreign currency exchange risk.
 
Commodity Price Risk
Oil and natural gas prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due to a variety of factors that are beyond our control.  These factors include the level of global demand for petroleum products, international supply of oil and gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil exporting countries, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative fuels, overall economic conditions, both international and domestic, and possible international disruptions.  We cannot predict future oil and gas prices with any degree of certainty.  Sustained weakness in oil and gas prices may adversely affect our ability to obtain capital to fund our activities and could in the future require a reduction in the carrying value of our oil and gas properties.  Similarly, an improvement in oil and gas prices can have a favorable impact on our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.
 
At June 30, 2011, we had not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments as such term is defined in Item 305 of Regulation S-K, relating to oil and natural gas.
 
Trading Risks
We have no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes.


Disclosure Controls
Our management, with participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2011.  Disclosure controls and procedures are defined under SEC rules as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
 
Based on our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act), during the six months ended June 30, 2011 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


 
Page 26



Risks relating to us are described in detail in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed on March 31, 2011.  Changes or additions to certain of those risk factors, or, those which are currently deemed to be material have been included in this Quarterly Report.  Reference should be made to our Annual Report as well as to the following for complete information regarding all risk factors material to investors.
 
We Have A History Of Losses And Our Liquidity Position Imposes Risk To Our Operations
To date, we have not achieved our planned principal operations and we are considered to be in the development stage of our operations.  We have incurred negative cash flows from our operations, and at this time all exploration activities and overhead expenses are primarily financed by way of the issue and sale of equity securities with a small portion being financed from oil sales and interest income on our cash balances.  The recoverability of the costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and is dependent upon achieving commercial production or sale.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties which are frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations, particularly companies in the oil and gas exploration industry.
 
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from oil and natural gas interests in the future.  Our financial statements as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  We incurred a net loss of $3.1 million, used $3.8 million of cash flow in our operating activities and recovered $2.7 million from our investing activities. As at June 30, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of $50.7 million.  These matters raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We expect to incur substantial expenditures to further our exploration and development programs.  The existing cash balance and any cash flow from operating activities may not be sufficient to satisfy current obligations and meet our exploration and development commitments.  Development activities within our blocks and licenses that are unable to achieve production in the short term may need to be deferred or curtailed.  We are considering various alternatives to remedy any future shortfall in capital.  We may deem it necessary to raise capital through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, including participation arrangements that may be available.  Because of the early stage of our operations and our absence of any material oil and natural gas reserves and revenues, there can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration expenditures which could lead to our inability to meet all of our commitments.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and we are not able to realize our assets and settle our liabilities, commitments and contingencies (as more fully described in note 2 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements) in the normal course of operations, adjustments would be required to our unaudited consolidated financial statements to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.  Our unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
GSPC Is Seeking a Substantial Payment From Us On Account Of GSPC’s Exploration Costs On the KG Offshore Block
GSPC has advised us that it is seeking from us payment of our pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be our pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and that we are required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
For a full description of this matter, see “Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Carried Interest Dispute on the KG Offshore Block”.
 
We estimate the amount of GSPC’s claim as of June 30, 2011 to be approximately $225.1 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.
 
We dispute these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and we intend to vigorously protect our contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  However, there can be no assurance that we will not by operation of law or through the dispute resolution process be required to pay GSPC the full amount it alleges to be owed, nor that adequate capital will be available to us to pay any such amounts, with consequent impact on our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our Activities Have Only Recently Commenced And We Have a Very Limited Operating History. Our Reserves Of Oil And Gas Are Not Material. We Anticipate Future Losses and There Is No Assurance Of Our Success
We are in the early stage of developing our operations.  We have a very limited operating history and we have realized very limited revenues from our activities.  We do not have material reserves of oil and gas as at June 30, 2011.
 
Our activities in the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry have primarily involved entering into ten PSCs with the Government of India.  We also have exploration activities in Israel and Colombia however those activities are in the very early stages of development.  Our exploration opportunities are highly speculative and should any of these opportunities not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of oil and gas reserves, our investment in the venture could be lost.  Our current plans are to conduct the exploration and development activities on the areas offshore and onshore in accordance with the terms of the production sharing and other contracts we are a party to.  There can be no assurance that the exploratory drilling to be conducted on the exploration blocks in which we hold an interest will result in any discovery of hydrocarbons or that any hydrocarbons that are discovered will be in commercially recoverable quantities.  Further, the realization of any revenues from commercially recoverable hydrocarbons is substantially dependent upon the ability to deliver, store and market any hydrocarbons discovered.  As of June 30, 2011 there are no or limited facilities for the delivery and storage of hydrocarbons in the areas covered by our PSCs and licenses.
 
As a company engaged in exploratory oil and gas activities we are exposed to a number of special risks including, among others;
·  
We may experience failures to discover oil and gas in commercial quantities;
·  
There are uncertainties as to the costs to be incurred in our exploratory drilling activities, cost overruns are possible and we may encounter mechanical difficulties and failures in completing wells;
·  
There are uncertain costs inherent in drilling into unknown formations, such as over-pressured zones, high temperatures and tools lost in the hole; and
·  
We may make changes in our drilling plans and locations as a result of prior exploratory drilling.
 
There can be no assurance that the ventures in which we are a participant or hold an interest will be successful in addressing these risks, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our prospects for the future.

We cannot assure you that we will have available the capital required to meet our plans and objectives at the times and in the amounts required or we will have available to us the amounts we are required to fund under the terms of the licenses or production sharing and other contracts we are a party to.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in raising the additional capital we currently require.

·  
We cannot assure you that we will obtain all required consents, waivers and extensions from a governmental or regulatory body in India, Israel or Colombia as and when required to maintain compliance with the licenses or production sharing or other contracts we have entered into, that we may not be adversely affected by any delays we may experience in receiving those consents, waivers and extensions, and that we may not incur liabilities under the production sharing or other contracts for our failure to maintain compliance with the requirements of and timely complete the related work programs.

We cannot assure you that GSPC will not be successful in its efforts to obtain payment from us on account of exploration costs it has expended on the KG Offshore Block for which it asserts we are liable or otherwise seek to hold us in breach of the PSC or commence arbitration proceedings against us and be successful in its assertion that it can terminate our contract with them or the Government of India.

An investment in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk.  There can be no assurance that the exploratory drilling to be conducted on the exploration blocks in which we hold an interest will result in any discovery of reserves of hydrocarbons or that any hydrocarbons that are discovered will be in commercially recoverable quantities.  In addition, the realization of any revenues from commercially recoverable hydrocarbons is dependent upon the ability to deliver, store and market any hydrocarbons that are discovered.
 
Our inability to meet our goals and objectives or the consequences to us from adverse developments in general economic or capital market conditions, events having international consequences, or military or terrorist activities could have a material adverse effect on us.  We caution you that various risk factors accompany those forward-looking statements and are described, among other places, under the caption “Risk Factors” herein.  They are also described in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.  These risk factors could cause our operating results, financial condition and ability to fulfill our plans to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made in this Report and could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategy and plans.
