Canacol Energy Ltd. has provided the following gas sales and drilling update.

Gas Sales

Realized contractual natural gas sales for the months of July and August 2020 averaged approximately 162 million standard cubic feet per day ("MMscfpd"). In addition to the realized contractual gas sales (which are essentially gas produced, delivered, and paid for) the Corporation saw an additional 8 MMscfpd of gas sales nominations throughout July and August, which must be paid for during the remainder of 2020 for which delivery timing is at the discretion of the off taker.

Porro Norte 1 Exploration well

VIM-5 E&P Contract

CNE Oil & Gas S.A.S , 100% Operated Working Interest

Using the Pioneer 302 drilling rig, the Porro Norte 1 exploration well was spud on July 20th, 2020 and reached 11,810 feet measured depth on August 17th, 2020. Significant over-pressure up to 13.7 ppg was accompanied by strong gas shows encountered over an 80 feet true vertical depth ("ft TVD") interval while drilling the primary reservoir objective in the Cicuco limestones of the Cienaga de Oro Formation. Based on wireline logs, the well encountered 24 ft TVD of potential gas pay within the Cicuco limestone, a new play type on the VIM5 block. The well was suspended and will be tested with a workover rig at a later date.

Remaining 2020 Drilling Program

Canacol maintains 2 drilling rigs under contract, Pioneer 53, and Pioneer 302, and plans to drill 4 additional wells during the remainder of 2020. The Pioneer 302 rig is currently mobilizing to drill the Fresa- 1 exploration, located close to the Corporations Jobo facility. Fresa 1 is anticipated to spud in late September 2020. Upon completion and testing of the Fresa 1 exploration well, the Rig 302 will be mobilized to drill the Flauta 1 exploration well, which is anticipated to spud in mid-November 2020.

Rig 53 will move to Pandereta 4 appraisal well after completing the Pandereta 8 development well. Operations at Pandereta 8 have been delayed by an outbreak of Covid in the area. After drilling and completing the Pandereta 4 appraisal well, RIG 53 will be mobilized to drill the Siku-1 exploration well, which is expected to spud in mid-December 2020.
