Stellar IP20 Flow Test Result in the Beetaloo
02 April 2026 – Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. (TSXV: FO, AIM: FOG) is pleased to announce that Shenandoah SS2-1H (“SS2-1H) achieved an average 20-day initial production (“IP20”) flow rate of 10.3 million cubic feet per day (“MMcf/d”) over 2,632-metres (8,635-foot) across a 57 stage stimulated length within the Amungee Member B-Shale in the Beetaloo Sub-basin, Northern Territory, Australia.
Points to note:
- The normalized flow rate of 11.9 MMcf/d over an extrapolated 10,000-foot horizontal section compares favourably to the average performance of more than 11,000 producing wells in the Marcellus Shale dry gas fairway with over 12 months of production history.
- The exit rate trajectory continues a steady, low-declining curve at 8.8 MMcf/d (normalized at 10.2 MMcf/d per 10,000-feet) with a flowing wellhead pressure of ~580 psi. The steady state decline curve on SS2-1H is consistent with that achieved from the Shenandoah SS2-2H ST1 (“SS-2H ST1”).
- Testing has been intentionally curtailed to avoid unnecessary flaring and carbon emissions and preserve reservoir energy ahead of tie‑into the Sturt Plateau Compression Facility (“SPCF”) and the commencement of gas sales in 3Q 2026.
- The 2026 stimulation campaign for the Shenandoah South 3H, 4H and 5H wells is planned to commence in the second quarter, with all three wells expected to be tied into the SPCF and brought into production during 3Q 2026.
- As previously announced, Falcon Australia opted to reduce its participating interest in the three wells drilled in 2025 to 0% (which includes the SS2-1H well), with no cost exposure.
- For further details on the SS2-1H flow test please refer to Appendix A.
Philip O’Quigley, CEO of Falcon commented:
“The IP20 flow rate results announced today of 10.3 MMcf/d, is another positive development as we move towards commercial production. As further results become available, we look forward to updating the market.”

Appendix A – SS2-1H Flow Test Details
SS2-1H Flow Result Details
The SS2-1H well achieved average IP20 flow rates of 10.3 MMcf/d from an 8,635 feet (2,632 metres) lateral section in the Amungee Member B-Shale in the Beetaloo Sub-basin. The well was stimulated with 57 stages and a toe stage covering over 3,030 metres (9,943 feet) at an average of 50 – 60-metres (164 - 197-foot) interval spacing within the Amungee Member B-Shale.
An obstruction has been left in the wellbore obstructing flow from 8 stages and the toe over 397.7 metres (1,305-foot). Given this impediment, it is expected that the gas contribution is from 49 stages across 2,632 metres (8,635 feet).
During the 20-day production testing period, the choke was opened from 20/64” to 60/64” at staged intervals and held constant over last 15 days. Gas rates declined from 15.9 MMcf/d to 8.8 MMcf/d, with an average IP20 flow rate of 10.3 MMcf/d and cumulative production of 205.6 MMcf over that period. Flowing wellhead pressures were drawn down from 4,499 to 582 psi.

In particular, forward-looking information in this press release includes, details on the IP20 flow test results of SS2-1H including assumptions that it compares favourably to the average performance of more than 11,000 producing wells in the Marcellus Shale dry gas fairway with over 12 months of production history; consistency of the results of SS2-1H with SS-2H ST1; details on the planned three well stimulation campaign including the plan to commence in 2Q 2026; the commencement of gas sales in 3Q 2026 and the plan to tie the wells to the SPCF and bring to production during 3Q 2026.
This information is based on current expectations that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. The risks, assumptions and other factors that could influence actual results include risks associated with fluctuations in market prices for shale gas; risks related to the exploration, development and production of shale gas reserves; general economic, market and business conditions; substantial capital requirements; uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of reserves and resources; extent of, and cost of compliance with, government laws and regulations and the effect of changes in such laws and regulations; the need to obtain regulatory approvals before development commences; environmental risks and hazards and the cost of compliance with environmental regulations; aboriginal claims; inherent risks and hazards with operations such as mechanical or pipe failure, cratering and other dangerous conditions; potential cost overruns, drilling wells is speculative, often involving significant costs that may be more than estimated and may not result in any discoveries; variations in foreign exchange rates; competition for capital, equipment, new leases, pipeline capacity and skilled personnel; the failure of the holder of licenses, leases and permits to meet requirements of such; changes in royalty regimes; failure to accurately estimate abandonment and reclamation costs; inaccurate estimates and assumptions by management and/or their joint venture partners; effectiveness of internal controls; the potential lack of available drilling equipment; failure to obtain or keep key personnel; title deficiencies; geo-political risks; and risk of litigation.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive and that these factors and risks are difficult to predict. Actual results might differ materially from results suggested in any forward-looking statements.

Any references in this news release to initial production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will continue production and decline thereafter and are not necessarily 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 Falcon. Such rates are based on field estimates and may be based on limited data available at this time.
