Alvopetro Energy Ltd. (TSX-V: ALV) (OTCQX: ALVOF) is pleased to announce that we have entered into an earning agreement (the "Agreement") in the Mannville heavy oil fairway, adding 28 gross sections (14 net) of high-quality heavy oil lands to complement and expand on our existing Mannville position.
Under the Agreement, Alvopetro has agreed to drill five earning wells commencing in Q4 2026, at an estimated cost of C$8.5 million. The program will employ proven open-hole multilateral well designs along with single-leg horizontal wells using re-circulation strings to unlock new reservoirs across the portfolio.
Key Highlights
- Adding 28 gross sections (14 net), in the Mannville heavy oil fairway, complementing the Company's existing Mannville position;
- Partnered with an established operator (Courser Energy) with a demonstrated track record in the Mannville play fairway with a strong land position and an inventory of ready-to-drill opportunities;
- Commencing a fully funded C$8.5 million, five-well program expected to commence in Q4 2026;
- Payout structure reduces risk by accelerating return of capital to Alvopetro by earning a 75% working interest pre-payout of the earning wells and a 50% interest post-payout along with a 50% interest in all surrounding undeveloped land; and
- A potential drilling inventory exceeding 75 gross locations.
President & CEO, Corey C. Ruttan commented:
"The Courser team has built an impressive land position from strong technical work. This new partnership provides exposure to an attractive inventory of ready-to-drill locations within the Mannville heavy oil fairway to complement and expand on our existing position. The program also gives us exposure to multiple well designs in attractive reservoirs creating added optionality across our wider Mannville portfolio."

Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Language
This news release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The use of any of the words "will", "expect", "intend", "plan", "may", "believe", "estimate", "forecast", "anticipate", "should" and other similar words or expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information. Forward‐looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, should not be read as guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. A number of factors could cause actual results to vary significantly from the expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect current assumptions and expectations regarding future events. Accordingly, when relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions, Alvopetro cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements, as forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties. More particularly and without limitation, this news release contains forward-looking information concerning future capital plans and potential development opportunities associated with the Agreement, including the anticipated timing for drilling the earning wells and the estimated capital costs associated with such wells, expected results from the earning wells, expected land positions and future working interests, and future drilling inventory locations. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon assumptions and judgments with respect to the future including, but not limited to the success of future drilling, completion, testing, recompletion and development activities and the timing of such activities, the performance of producing wells and reservoirs, well development and operating performance, expectations and assumptions concerning the timing of regulatory licenses and approvals, equipment availability, environmental regulation, including regulations relating to hydraulic fracturing and stimulation, the ability to monetize hydrocarbons discovered, the outlook for commodity markets and ability to access capital markets, foreign exchange rates, the outcome of any disputes, the outcome of redeterminations, general economic and business conditions, forecasted demand for oil and natural gas, the impact of global pandemics, weather and access to drilling locations, the availability and cost of labour and services, and the regulatory and legal environment and other risks associated with oil and gas operations. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect. Actual results achieved during the forecast period will vary from the information provided herein as a result of numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors. Current and forecasted natural gas nominations are subject to change on a daily basis and such changes may be material. In addition, the declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because we can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, reliance on industry partners, availability of equipment and personnel, uncertainty surrounding timing for drilling and completion activities resulting from weather and other factors, changes in applicable regulatory regimes and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, market uncertainty associated with trade or tariff disputes, and general economic conditions. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect. Although Alvopetro believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking information is based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking information because Alvopetro can give no assurance that it will prove to be correct.
