Operational Update and Upcoming Activity Highlights

Parex provides the update below on our ongoing exploration and growth activities:

Production

  • Current production is approximately 49,000 boe/d (consisting of approximately 6,370 bbls/d of light crude oil and medium crude oil, 40,670 bbls/d of heavy crude oil and 11,760 mcf/d of conventional natural gas).

Implementation of Technology in Colombia Operations

Multilateral Drilling: Parex is utilizing multilateral wells on the Fortuna block (Parex 100% WI) in order to access four separate prospective zones. The multilateral wells are expected to maximize reservoir contact, reduce costs and reduce the surface footprint associated with single lateral drilling.

  • The Cayena-1 well was initially drilled in 2020 as a single lateral into the Galembo Formation with a lateral length of approximately 3,000 feet. In October 2021 this well was sidetracked for the first multilateral leg which was drilled to a lateral length of approximately 5,700 feet and the second multilateral leg has been drilled to a lateral length of approximately 7,200 feet which is the longest horizontal well in Colombia to date.
  • The next three leg multilateral well will be Cayena-2 which is expected to be drilled in Q4 2022 and it will also be targeting the Galembo Formation. This well will be followed by Fidalga-1 targeting the Salada Formation, which will be the first well on this block targeting this formation.

Hydraulic Stimulation: The Company recently employed hydraulic stimulation with energized fluids on vertical wells for well stimulation with the goal being increased fracture complexity to improve productivity. Following the successful pumping of the Akira-7 pilot well the crew has mobilized and is moving to the next well in the program, Akira-12, with results from Akira-7 expected in November 2021.

Advanced Acid Stimulation: On the Perla Negra-1 well Parex plans to apply a limited entry technique with the goal being wider distribution of acid in the horizontal leg to improve well productivity. The Company believes this is the first application of the technique in Colombia

Synthetic Drilling Mud: Use of synthetic drilling mud is expected to commence on the Capachos block (Parex 50% WI) at the Capachos Sur-3 well in December 2021 and will be an important component of the 2022 Arauca block drilling program. The Company believes that use of synthetic drilling mud in our other core areas should result in significant operational efficiencies.

Airborne Geophysics: Parex commissioned the acquisition of a regional aero-gravity and aero-magnetics survey in 2021 and is currently processing the data.

  • The survey size is in excess of 3,800 square kilometers and covers the LLA-122 area of the foothills in Colombia.
  • The aero-gravity survey utilizes high resolution Full Tensor Gradiometry (FTG) technology which measures the rate of change of gravity that is caused by subtle geological density variations. When the gravity and magnetic surveys are integrated, they provide a low-impact and cost-effective regional assessment of the subsurface potential.

Drilling Operations Summary

Block Parex WI Activity Description
Arauca & LLA-38 50% Advancing social and civil activities to spud the first of the four well program planned to begin in Q1 2022.
Cabrestero 100% 11-12 wells expected to be drilled and on production by year-end, which is expected to bring 2021 exit production to approximately 9,000 bbl/d and will expand the Company's pressure maintenance strategy on the block.
Capachos 50% Commencing a six well program in 2022, comprised of three development and three exploration wells, subject to partner approval.
Fortuna 100% The Galembo Formation at the Cayena field is prospective for crude oil and the Company is targeting two additional stacked hydrocarbon bearing formations, the Olini (Perla Negra-1 test in Q4 2021) and the Salada (Fidalga-1 drill in Q1 2022). Completion activities are underway and we expect to test the wells in November 2021.
VIM-1

50%
Early production from the La Belleza discovery is expected in November 2021 at gross rates of approximately 2,400 boe/d (consisting of 1,400 bbls/d of light crude oil per day and 6 mmcf/d of conventional natural gas).
The Planadas-1 exploration well has been drilled to a measured depth of approximately 13,700 feet in a Cretaceous aged crystalline basement. The well was drilled 6.3 kilometers west of the La Belleza-1 discovery. The well was positioned 1,425 feet down dip of the La Belleza-1 well and 1,140 feet above the regional structural closure in order to test the possibility of a continuous hydrocarbon column existing across the large structural high on the VIM-1 block. Gas shows were encountered during drilling and a detailed logging program is currently underway to identify zones for testing.
LLA-34 55% Recent promising drilling results in the Tigui field potentially expand the field to the north and southeast, opening up new drilling opportunities.


Returning Capital To Shareholders: Special Dividend Declared & 2021 Share Buy-back 92% Complete

The Board has approved the payment of a special cash dividend in the amount of CAD$0.25 per common share, which will be payable on November 22, 2021 to shareholders of record as of November 16, 2021. This special cash dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for the purpose of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

In its press release dated July 7, 2021, the Company announced the implementation of a regular quarterly dividend with respect to its common shares. The Board has also approved the payment of a dividend for the fourth quarter of 2021 in the amount of CAD$0.125 per common share, which will be payable on December 31, 2021 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2021. The dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for the purpose of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

As of October 31, 2021, the Company has repurchased for cancellation 11,987,879 common shares under its NCIB which commenced on December 23, 2020, at an average cost of CAD$21.18 per share. As of October 31, 2021, Parex had 120,972,942 basic shares outstanding. From September 15, 2017 to October 31, 2021, Parex has repurchased approximately 43.8 million shares at an average cost of CAD$19.34 per share returning CAD$848 million to shareholders. Parex expects to purchase the maximum allowable 12.9 million shares under the NCIB, prior to its expiry on December 22, 2021.

Parex is committed to returning capital to shareholders and believes the decision to initiate a dividend, Board approval of the payment of a special dividend, as well as continuing to utilize its NCIB, demonstrates such commitment.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OF FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Non-GAAP Terms

The Company discloses several financial measures ("non-GAAP Measures") herein that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These financial measures include operating netback per boe, FFO, FFO per boe, FFO per share and free funds flow. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for its own performance measurement and to provide shareholders and investors with additional measurements of the Company's efficiency and its ability to fund a portion of its future capital expenditures.

The Company considers operating netback per boe to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex' profitability relative to current commodity prices. The following is a description of each component of the Company's operating netback per boe and how it is determined:

  • Oil and natural gas sales per boe is determined by sales revenue excluding risk management contracts divided by total equivalent sales volume including purchased oil volume;
  • Royalties per boe is determined by dividing royalty expense by the total equivalent sales volume and excludes purchased oil volumes;
  • Production expense per boe is determined by dividing production expense by total equivalent sales volume and excludes purchased oil volumes; and
  • Transportation expense per boe is determined by dividing transportation expense by the total equivalent sales volumes including purchased oil volumes.

FFO is a non-GAAP measure that includes all cash generated (used in) from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital. In Q2 2019, the Company changed how it presents FFO to present a more comparable basis to industry presentation.

FFO per boe is a non-GAAP measure that includes all cash generated (used in) from operating activities and calculated before changes in non-cash working capital, divided by produced oil and natural gas sales volumes.

FFO per share is determined by FFO divided by basic shares outstanding.

Free funds flow is determined by FFO mid-point less capital expenditures.

Shareholders and investors should be cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income or other measures of financial performance as determined in accordance with IFRS. Parex' method of calculating these measures may differ from other companies, and accordingly, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Please see the Company's most recent Management's Discussion and Analysis, which is available at www.sedar.com for additional information about these financial measures.

Oil & Gas Matters Advisory
The term "Boe" means a barrel of oil equivalent on the basis of 6 thousand cubic feet ("Mcf") of natural gas to 1 bbl. Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6 Mcf: 1Bbl, utilizing a conversion ratio at 6 Mcf: 1 Bbl may be misleading as an indication of value.

This press release contains a number of oil and gas metrics, including operating netbacks. These oil and gas metrics have been prepared by management and do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods and therefore such metrics should not be unduly relied upon. Management uses these oil and gas metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide security holders with measures to compare the Company's operations over time. Readers are cautioned that the information provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented in this news release, should not be relied upon for investment or other purposes.

References to initial production test rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for Parex. Parex cautions the short-term production rates should be considered preliminary.

Dividend Advisory
Future dividend payments, if any, and the level thereof is uncertain. The Company's dividend policy and any decision to pay further dividends on the common shares,including any special dividends, will be subject to the discretion of the Board and may depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation the Company's business performance, financial condition, financial requirements, growth plans, expected capital requirements and other conditions existing at such future time including, without limitation, contractual restrictions and satisfaction of the solvency tests imposed on the Company under applicable corporate law. The actual amount, the declaration date, the record date and the payment date of any dividend are subject to the discretion of the Board. There can be no assurance that dividends will be paid at the intended rate or at any rate in the future.

Tracy Shuchart: Energy Demand Exploding — Watching Oil/Gas, Uranium and Grid Stocks

Tracy Shuchart, CEO and founder of Hilltower Resource Advisors, discussed the growing need for all types of energy in the US, saying she's looking for opportunities in oil, natural gas, grid stocks and uranium juniors.

"I think 2025 is going to be a really good year for energy, absolutely," she said. "Not just because of the incoming administration that is very pro-energy and very-pro nuclear as well. But I think with this demand explosion that we're having it's going to be hard to keep ignoring that sector as people have over the last few years."

Looking at oil stocks, Shuchart said those who do their research will be able to find bargains outside the majors.
