London, 5 July 2018

Energean Oil and Gas plc (LSE: ENOG), the independent oil and gas exploration and production company focused on the Eastern Mediterranean, announces that on 3 July 2018 the Israeli Supreme Court, sitting as the High Court of Justice, unanimously dismissed the petition filed on 14 September 2017 by two environmental groups against Energean and the Petroleum Commissioner, the Ministry of Energy, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Finance, in connection with the Karish-Tanin Development.

These proceedings constituted the sole outstanding court proceedings against Energean in Israel. Energean is planning to deliver gas to the Israeli market from the Karish-Tanin Development in 2021, and is on track with its project milestones to achieve this timeline.
