Desire Petroleum plc

("Desire" or "the Company")

Preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2004

Following the successful Share Placing and Open Offer, details of which were
sent to shareholders on 14 February 2005, conducted by Seymour Pierce Ltd, the
Company`s Nominated Advisor and Broker, the Company is now preparing to resume
drilling in the North Falkland Basin. The Share Placing and Open Offer was
substantially over- subscribed and all 55,890,656 new shares were taken up. The
new monies raised are not reflected in the Accounts for the year ended 31
December 2004, as they were raised post this date, and the Company now has,
therefore, a much stronger balance sheet than that shown in these Results.

As has been announced, Rockhopper Exploration Limited has agreed to farm-in for
up to a 15% working interest in Tranches C and D by paying up to 30% of the
costs of the proposed three-well drilling programme.

Given the importance and complexity of operating a drilling programme in the
North Falkland Basin, it was further announced that Dr. Ian Duncan, already a
non-executive director of the Company, had been made full-time Chief Executive
and that Peak Well Management had been appointed to manage the drilling
programme on the Company`s behalf. Dr. Duncan and I, together with Robert Lyons,
the Managing Director of Peak Well Management, have recently returned from a
visit to the Falklands to initiate the drilling programme. There are many legal,
operational and logistical factors to cover before drilling can commence and
these will take from six to eight months to put in place. I am pleased to report
that we continue to receive the fullest help and support from the Falkland
Island Authorities and from their advisor, the British Geological Survey.

In my Chairman`s letter accompanying the Placing and Open Offer, I indicated
that the Company had put out invitations to tender for a rig contract to drill
the three-well programme, and that, because of the high, current oil prices, the
rig market had become very tight. This has been borne out by the response to the
tender invitations. However, a number of the responses are now the subject of
discussion and negotiation and your Board remains hopeful that drilling will
re-commence in late 2005 or early 2006; shareholders will be kept informed of
progress. The most important consideration will be not just the availability but
also the suitability of the rig eventually contracted.

Although Dr. Duncan is the first full-time employee of Desire, it is not your
Board`s intention to build up staff but, wherever possible, to outsource our
requirements and maintain as low an overhead as possible. However, it has become
clear that Dr. Duncan will need increased specialist support at Board level and
the composition of the Board has been reorganised to reflect this. Dr. John
Martin, Dr. David Quick and Ian Forrest will be retiring from the Board at the
Annual General Meeting on 24 May 2005. All three have given valuable service to
the Company and I would like to thank them sincerely on behalf of all
shareholders. As of 1 May 2005, Lewis Clifton, OBE and Andrew Windham will be
joining the Board. Lewis Clifton is a resident of the Falkland Islands and will
be playing an essential role both before and during the drilling programme, he
was a member of the Board prior to the Company`s merger with Gaelic Resources
plc. Andrew Windham is a lawyer with considerable experience of all aspects of
oil-company activity and already acts as a consultant to the Company. I would
like to extend a warm welcome to both of them.

As a result of the appointment of Dr. Ian Duncan as Chief Executive, and of the
other Board changes, Stephen Phipps will become Chairman of the Audit Committee
and Andrew Windham will become Chairman of the Remuneration Committee.

Since the acquisition of the 3-D seismic survey in 2004, the Company has made
steady progress towards the resumption of drilling in the North Falkland Basin.
The 3-D seismic has had a major impact on the elucidation of the geology of the
Basin and continuing work on its interpretation is revealing additional drilling
targets which can be added to the Company`s prospect inventory. The Company is
now entering a very important phase of its development and, given that we have
no staff, I shall be relying very heavily on the input of my colleagues on the
Board. As in previous years, it is the intention of the Remuneration Committee
to recognise this input by allocating share options. I would like to thank all
Board members for their continuing support in the Company`s progress.

Yours sincerely,

Dr. Colin B. Phipps
