Brisbane, Australia – April 29, 2024 – Queensland Pacific Metals Ltd (ASX: QPM), a leader in the development of natural gas resources, is thrilled to announce a substantial increase in its 2P gas reserves at the Moranbah Project. Following a newly completed independent assessment by Netherland, Sewell & Associates Inc., the company reports a 38% increase in 2P reserves, rising from 240PJ to an impressive 331.2PJ.

- Integration of additional mine waste gas supplies into existing infrastructure.
- Collaborative efforts in the Northern Carbon Abatement Hub to foster sustainable practices.
QPM CEO David Wrench commented:
“We are very pleased with the results of our extensive well workover program which has re-invigorated the field and established a stable production base. This program has increased production and underpinned the significant reserve upgrade announced today. With over 200PJ of uncontracted gas reserves and a myriad of sales opportunities ahead of us, this is an exciting time for shareholders.”
