ASX Announcement
Interim Ramsay 3 Flow Testing Update – Strong Reservoir Deliverability
HIGHLIGHTS
Ø Initial flow testing of Ramsay 3 has commenced, with early results demonstrating exceptional reservoir
deliverability.
Ø Ramsay 3 has recorded an exceptionally high Productivity Index (PI) of approximately 40 bbl/day/psi, in-
dicating very strong reservoir inflow and permeability.
Ø Early testing achieved flow rates exceeding 8,000 bbl/day using the Electric Submersible Pump (ESP), with
only limited pressure drawdown, indicating significant additional well deliverability and supporting the
potential for flow rates exceeding 20,000 bbl/day under optimised operating conditions.
Ø The approximately 40 bbl/day/psi PI is the highest recorded at the Ramsay Project to date, compared with
approximately 34 bbl/day/psi derived from Ramsay 1 and Ramsay 2, and significantly above the <2
bbl/day/psi typically associated with low-permeability reservoirs.
Ø Testing indicates that the 105 metre perforated interval, selected from the 180 metre gross Helium-bearing
Kulpara Dolomite interval using NMR log data, is making a strong contribution to aggregate well flow.
Ø Initial shut-in pressure build-up data showed negligible pressure depletion, providing encouraging early
evidence of substantial reservoir support and potentially a significantly larger connected gas volume.
Ø Preliminary analysis indicates a Ramsay 3 drainage radius of approximately 1.25 km, demonstrating the
potential for extensive reservoir connectivity and a substantial area of reservoir influence.
Ø The results provide strong early confirmation that the larger 7-inch cased, cemented and perforated Ram-
say 3 well design is performing as intended and is capable of delivering substantially increased inflow ca-
pacity.
Ø The Ramsay 3 flow-testing program is currently undertaking an extended wellbore clean-up phase ahead
of the main stabilised flow operation.
Ø The main Helium flow-testing program is expected to commence later this week following mobilisation of
additional equipment to assist with wellbore clean-up and optimisation.
Ø Testing of the Natural Hydrogen-bearing zones will follow completion of the Helium zone testing.

RAMSAY 3 TESTING PROGRAM UNDERWAY
Further to the Company’s previous update of 2 September 2026, the Directors of Gold Hydrogen Limited (Gold
Hydrogen, ASX: GHY, the Company) are pleased to provide an interim operational update on the flow testing
program underway at the Ramsay 3 well, Ramsay Project (PEL 687), Yorke Peninsula, South Australia.
Following completion of workover operations and perforation of the selected Helium-bearing intervals, initial
well performance data acquired prior to the commencement of the main flow program has derived a
Productivity Index of approximately 40 bbl/day/psi – the highest derived at the Ramsay Project to date.
This early outcome provides the Company with confidence that the 7-inch cased, cemented and perforated
wellbore design at Ramsay 3 is performing as intended. The larger-diameter completion provides approximately
2.3 times the wellbore cross-sectional area of the 4½-inch cased Ramsay 1 and Ramsay 2 wells and supports the
substantially larger-capacity Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP) of up to or more than 20,000 bbl/day.
The program is currently undertaking an extended wellbore clean-up phase to recover workover and completion
fluids from the wellbore and near-wellbore region ahead of stabilised flow and representative gas sampling.
Clean-up is progressing and the main Helium flow program is expected to commence later this week.
The figures stated in this announcement are preliminary field-derived measurements and remain subject to
confirmation. Gold Hydrogen will provide further updates to the market as the Ramsay 3 flow testing program
continues.
Important Risk Commentary
It is important to note that there remain both geological and potential development risks associated with the
Ramsay Project and the Company’s commercial and business objectives. Exploratory flow testing of the Kulpara
Dolomite interval may not result in a flow of Helium to surface. There is no certainty that the Ramsay 3 testing
program will achieve the expected outcomes, that Contingent Resources will be able to be booked, that an
accelerated FEED or a Ramsay development will proceed, or that commercial viability can be established.
