Pan Orient Energy Corp. provided the Thailand operations update. Thailand oil sales for Concession L53 averaged 3,076 BOPD, 2,745 BOPD and 2,732 BOPD (1,538 BOPD, 1,373 BOPD and 1,366 BOPD net to Pan Orient's 50.01% equity interest) in October, November and December 2021, respectively.

Approximately 26 BOPD (13 BOPD net to Pan Orient's 50.01% equity interest) has been shut-in due to flooding since October 13, 2021 and will continue to be shut-in for approximately another three weeks. Preliminary plans for 2022, subject to partner approval, include 12 workovers, with ten of these in the Kamphaeng Sean fields (L53-A, B, D and G) and the remaining two in the DD field. The Company also anticipates the drilling of up to three wells, all located in the DD field.

Workover operations are anticipated to commence shortly after the arrival of new perforation charges in late January 2022 and drilling to commence upon the availability of a drilling rig in late March to April 2022. In late December 2021 a revised geological model and reservoir simulation history match /forecast was completed for all sands in the DD field, in addition to a thorough review of all wells located in the Kamphaeng Sean fields. This information has been provided to the Company's third-party reserves evaluator and will be reflected in the final year-end 2021 reserves estimates that are expected to be announced in early February 2022.

The L53-DD6ST2 well was tested in the previously unproven AA1 zone and averaged 133 BOPD in November and 99 BOPD in December (67 BOPD and 50 BOPD respectively net to Pan Orient's 50.01% equity interest) with an average water cut of approximately 60%. The well is located just above the oil water contact in the northern limit of the accumulation and has potentially proven a modest new accumulation up-dip of the well, based on existing well control. In February the well will commence commingled production from the AA1 sand and the underlying C1 sand after the removal of the bridge plug that currently isolates the AA1 sand.

No reserves had been attributed to this sand in the year-end 2020 reserves report. The L53-DD10 well was tested in the previously unproven AA2 sand and averaged 183 BOPD (92 BOPD net to Pan Orient's 50.01% equity interest) with a water cut of approximately 71% since coming on stream November 16, 2021 until December 31, 2021. As was the case with the AA1 sand in the DD6ST2 well, no reserves had been attributed to this sand in the year-end 2020 reserves report.
