5. What is UCG: General layout of demonstrator Refine Conceptual Model Demonstrator Parameters Site areas, approx 6 ha Construction and drilling phase 150 to 200 day operational phase Two well ‘streaming’ gasifier Oxidants – Air and O 2 Produced Gas – Thermal Oxidiser Produced Water – Offsite Disposal Depth of gasifier - >1000m Decommission and monitoring phase

6. What is the UCG Demonstrator-Summary Refine Conceptual Model The sequence of testing proposed will cover: A.Operation on air, enriched air and oxygen, B.Gasification along the channel in either a continuous burn (parallel CRIP) or series of batch CRIP manoeuvres (In-line CRIP), C.Shut-down and decommissioning D.Full compliance with the requirements of environmental monitoring or underground, surface and air conditions. Overall Aim The aim of the UCG demonstrator is to confirm that UCG can be sustained in a coal seam located under estuary or seawater and accessed by lateral drilling from a land location. The 150-200 day test will generate operational and environmental data for the commercial design and provide evidence regarding process safety and environmentally performance.
