PART 1: INTRODUCTION

 

The effective date of the information being provided in this statement is December 31, 2022. The preparation date of the information being provided in this statement is March 13, 2023. For a glossary of terminology and definitions relating to the information included within this statement (including the aforementioned dates), readers are referred to NI 51-101.

 

Reserves and Future Net Revenue

 

The following is a summary of the oil and natural gas reserves and the net present values of future net revenue of Kolibri Global Energy Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary BNK Petroleum (U.S.) Inc. as evaluated by NSAI. The Company’s only property with assigned reserves and gathering revenue is the Tishomingo field in Oklahoma, U.S. NSAI is an independent qualified reserves evaluator appointed by the Company pursuant to NI 51-101. Readers should note that totals in the following tables may not add due to rounding.

 

The estimated future net revenue figures contained in the following tables do not necessarily represent the fair market value of the Company’s reserves. There is no assurance that the forecast prices and cost assumptions used by NSAI in its report to the Company will be attained and variances could be material. NSAI’s report to the Company contained additional assumptions relating to costs and other matters. The recovery and reserves estimates attributed to the Company’s properties described herein are estimates only. The actual reserves attributed to the Company’s properties may be greater or less than those calculated.

 

All dollar values are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

 

Cautionary Statements

 

Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves.

 

BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six mcf to one barrel is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

PART 5: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATING TO RESERVES DATA

 

5.1 Undeveloped Reserves

 

The Company’s undeveloped reserves exist in the Caney shale of its interests in the Tishomingo Field in Oklahoma, U.S. Most of these reserves are designated within the undeveloped category because significant capital expenditures will be required in order to render these reserves capable of production.

 

The following tables disclose the proved undeveloped and probable undeveloped reserves from the Company’s current net interest in the Tishomingo Field that were first attributed in each of the most recent three financial years:

Plans for future development of these undeveloped reserves (based on Forecast Prices and Costs) are summarized below:

 

United States of America Properties

 

Tishomingo Field, Oklahoma

 

NSAI assigns 27,410.3 Mboe (Company Gross Working Interest share) Proved Undeveloped and 21,009.8 Mboe (Company Gross Working Interest share) Probable Undeveloped reserves to the Tishomingo Field. The Proved Undeveloped reserves are forecast to be recoverable from the drilling of 11 wells in 2023 and 27, 19 and 5 wells in 2024, 2025 and 2026 respectively (10.92, 26.77, 13.07 and 1.2 net KEI wells). The Probable Undeveloped reserves are forecast to be recoverable from the drilling of 9 wells in 2025, 30 wells in 2026, 15 wells in 2027 and 7 in 2028 respectively (7.67, 15.77, 4.12 and 2.33 net KEI wells).

 

The production forecast is based on producing the existing wells and drilling the additional wells as listed above and applying the historical production behavior to the undeveloped well locations.

5.2 Significant Factors or Uncertainties

 

Estimates of economically recoverable oil and natural gas reserves (including natural gas liquids) and the future net cash flows therefrom are based upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, such as availability of capital to fund required infrastructure, commodity prices, production performance of the wells drilled, successful drilling of infill wells, the assumed effects of regulation by government agencies and future capital and operating costs. All of these estimates will vary from actual results. Estimates of the recoverable oil and natural gas reserves attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such reserves based on risk of recovery and estimates of future net revenues expected therefrom, will vary. The Company’s actual production, revenues, taxes, development and operating expenditures with respect to its reserves will vary from such estimates, and such variances could be material. Estimates of after-tax net present value are dependent on a number of factors including utilization of tax-loss carry forwards. In addition to the foregoing, other significant factors or uncertainties that may affect either the Company’s reserves or the future net revenue associated with such reserves include material changes to existing taxation or royalty rates and/or regulations, and changes to environmental laws and regulations.

 

Information on other important economic factors or significant uncertainties that may affect components of the reserves data and other oil and gas information contained in this Form 51-101F1 are contained in the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis filed under the Company’s profile at www.SEDAR.com and in the AIF under “Risk Factors”.

 

5.3 Future Development Costs

 

A summary of the estimated development costs deducted in the estimation of future net revenue attributable to various reserves categories and prepared under various price and cost assumptions are summarized in the following table. The Company expects to fund its estimated future development costs through some combination of internally generated cash flow and debt or equity financing. There can be no guarantee that funds will be available when required to proceed with the development on the schedule contemplated herein or that the Board of Directors of the Company will allocate funding to develop all of the reserves requiring development. Failure to develop such reserves could negatively impact future net revenue.

PART 6: OTHER OIL AND GAS INFORMATION

 

6.1 Oil and Gas Properties and Wells

 

The following discussion outlines the Company’s important properties, plants, facilities and installations:

 

United States

 

Tishomingo Field, Ardmore Basin, Oklahoma

 

In Oklahoma, the Company holds approximately 17,171 net acres of Caney shale acreage in the Tishomingo Field near Ardmore, OK. The Company sold all of its Woodford shale rights in the Tishomingo Field in April 2013 and commenced the exploration phase to develop the oily Caney shale. A subsequent transaction in 2015 resulted in the Company obtaining a 4.9% working interest in one section and participating in four Woodford shale horizontal wells which were completed in 2016. The Company plans additional development drilling in this field with the objective of increasing production and reserves.

 

In 2013, the Company drilled 5 Caney horizontal wells to increase its reserves, oil production and to better understand the Caney formation. By December 31, 2013, the 5 wells were fracture stimulated with 4 wells on production. The 5th well began production in early January 2014. The Company’s exit production from the Tishomingo Field at December 31, 2013 was approximately 1,040 boepd. KEI’s 2013-year end proved reserves, with an effective date of 12/31/13 were 4 million boe.

 

In 2014, the Company drilled 5 Caney horizontal wells, fracture stimulated 3 of them, fracture stimulated one third of another well and completed the stimulation of one well that had been drilled in 2013 that had not been fully stimulated. The remaining wellbores were stimulated in 2015. The Company’s exit production rate from the field was approximately 1,400 boepd, which did not include one well that began producing oil in early January 2015. KEI’s 2014 year end proved reserves, with an effective date of 12/31/14 in the Tishomingo Field increased to an estimated 12 million boe.

 

As noted above, in 2015 the Company completed 2 Caney horizontal wells that had been drilled in 2014. Due to the drastic drop in the price of oil the Company did not drill any additional wells in 2015. The Company averaged 1,367 boepd in the fourth quarter of 2015. KEI’s 2015 year end proved reserves in the Tishomingo Field, with an effective date of 12/31/15 increased to 17.7 million boe compared to the December 31, 2014 estimate, primarily due to upgrading into the proved and probable categories.

 

Due to the continued low oil prices through 2016, the Company did not complete any wells in 2016. KEI’s 2016 year end proved reserves in the Tishomingo Field increased to 18 million boe, primarily due to technical revisions as a result of the existing wells performing above previous forecasts. Company production averaged 1,045 BOEPD in 2016.

 

The Company’s 2017 drilling program, consisted of 3 horizontal Caney wells, two of which were drilled to the east of KEI’s previous Caney wells. These wells were successfully drilled under-budget and demonstrated solid operational execution and extended the play to the east. Fracture stimulation programs were modified and much higher proppant placement was achieved. KEI’s 2017 year end proved reserves increased by 40% to 25.2 million boe primarily due to probable and possible locations being converted to proved locations. KEI’s 2017 year end proved and probable reserves increased by 13% to 47.6 million boe. Average production for the year was 1,092 BOEPD since two of the wells came on late in the year. KEI’s 4th quarter average production was 1,539 BOEPD.

 

In 2018 the Company drilled and participated in 4 horizontal Caney wells, 3 of them were operated by the Company. The remaining well was a 2-mile lateral, operated by a major oil company, who had the right to be the operator for that section. All the wells were successfully drilled on and or under budget. KEI’s 2018 year end proved reserves increased by 26% to 33.8 million boe primarily due to the new wells being drilled. KEI’s 2018 year end proved and probable reserves increased by 11% to 53.3 million boe. Both the proved and probable reserve increases are primarily a result of the new wells converting probable and possible reserve locations to the proven and probable categories. The proved reserves are estimated to be 76% oil, with the balance being shale gas and natural gas liquids. Average production for the year was 1,662 BOEPD.

In 2019 the Company did not drill any wells, but there was one well that was listed as PDNP at the end of 2018 that was brought on production, and KEI completed a few workovers to cleanout wellbores. KEI’s 2019 year-end proved reserves were down by 1% to 33.4 million boe. KEI’s 2019-year end proved and probable reserves, decreased by 1% to 52.6 million boe. There was no significant change to the proved, nor probable reserves since KEI did not drill any wells in 2019. The small change is attributed to the existing wells having had low decline rates matching previous assumptions. Average production was 1,379 BOEPD.

 

In 2020, due to the ultra low oil prices during COVID the Company did not drill any wells. KEI’s 2020 year-end proved reserves were down by 1% to 33.1 million boe. KEI’s 2020 year-end proved and probable reserves, decreased by 1% to 52.2 million boe. There was no significant change to the proved, nor probable reserves since KEI did not drill any wells in 2020. The small change is attributed to the existing wells having had low decline rate matching previous assumptions. Average production was 1,151 BOEPD.

 

In 2021, the Company did not drill any wells. KEI’s 2021 year end proved reserves were up by 3% to 34.1 million boe. KEI’s 2021 year-end proved and probable reserves, increased by 2% to 53.3 million boe. The small change to both the proved reserves and probable reserves is attributed to the existing wells performing well and due to longer anticipated life of wells due to higher forecast pricing, over last year’s extremely low pricing. Average production was 975 BOEPD.

 

In 2022, the Company drilled five wells. KEI’s 2022 year end proved reserves were down by 2% to 33.3 million boe, while the proved reserves of oil increased by 2% to 25.0 million barrels. KEI’s 2022 year-end proved and probable reserves increased by 2% to 54.4 million boe, while the proved reserves of oil increased by 6% to39.5 million barrels. The small change is due to the production in 2022 offset by proved and probable reserve additions, plus the percentage of oil increasing from 72 percent to 75 percent in the proved category and increasing from 70 percent to 73 percent in the proved plus probable category.

PART 7: NOTES

 

The following definitions and guidelines are contained in Section 5.4 of Volume 1 of the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (Second Edition, September 1, 2007) prepared jointly by The Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (Calgary Chapter) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum (Petroleum Society) (the “COGE Handbook”) and have been prepared by the Standing Committee on Reserves Definitions of the CIM (Petroleum Society). Readers should consult the COGE Handbook for additional explanation and guidance. Certain other terms used in this Listing Application have the meanings assigned to them in NI 51-101 and accompanying Companion Policy 51-101 CP, adopted by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

 

Gross

 

(a)In relation to the Company’s interest in production or reserves, its “company gross reserves”, which are the Company’s working interest (operating or non-operating) share before deduction of royalties and without including any royalty interest of the Company.

 

(b)In relation to wells, the total number of wells in which the Company has an interest.

 

(c)In relation to properties, the total area of properties in which the Company has an interest.

 

Net

 

(a)In relation to the Company’s interest in production or reserves, the Company’s working interest (operating and non-operating) share after deduction of royalty obligations, plus the Company’s royalty interests in production or reserves.

 

(b)In relation to the Company’s interest in a property, the total area in which the Company has an interest multiplied by the working interest owned by the Company.

 

The following definitions apply to both estimates of individual reserves entities and the aggregate of reserves for multiple entities:

 

Reserve Categories

 

Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations from a given date forward, based on:

 

Analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data;

 

The use of established technology; and

 

Specified economic conditions

 

Reserves are classified according to the degree of certainty associated with the estimates:

 

(a)Proved reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

 

(b)Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

 

Development and Production Status

 

Each of the reserve categories (proved and probable) may be divided into developed and undeveloped categories:

 

(a)Developed reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from existing wells and installed facilities or, if facilities have not been installed, that would involve a low expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) to put the reserves on production. The developed category may be subdivided into producing and non-producing.

 

-16-

 

 

(i)Developed producing reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty.

 

(ii)Developed non-producing reserves are those reserves that either have not been on production, or have previously been on production, but are shut-in, and the date of resumption of production is unknown.

 

(b)Undeveloped reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves classification (proved, probable) to which they are assigned.

 

In multi-well pools it may be appropriate to allocate total pool reserves between the developed and undeveloped categories or to subdivide the developed reserves for the pool between developed producing and developed non-producing. This allocation should be based on the estimator’s assessment as to the reserves that will be recovered from specific wells, facilities and completion intervals in the pool and their respective development and production status.

 

Levels of Certainty for Reported Reserves

 

The qualitative certainty levels referred to in the definitions above are applicable to individual reserve entities (which refers to the lowest level at which reserves calculations are performed) and to reported reserves (which refers to the highest level sum of individual entity estimates for which reserves are presented). Reported reserves should target the following levels of certainty under a specific set of economic conditions:

 

At least a 90 percent probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the estimated proved reserves; and

 

At least a 50 percent probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

 

A quantitative measure of the certainty levels pertaining to estimates prepared for the various reserves categories is desirable to provide a clearer understanding of the associated risks and uncertainties. However, the majority of reserves estimates will be prepared using deterministic methods that do not provide a mathematically derived quantitative measure of probability. In principle, there should be no difference between estimates prepared using probabilistic or deterministic methods.

 

Forecast prices and costs

 

Future prices and costs that are:

 

(a)Generally accepted as being a reasonable outlook of the future; and

 

(b)If, and only to the extent that, there are fixed or presently determinable future prices or costs to which the Company is legally bound by a contractual or other obligation to supply a physical product, including those for an extension period of a contract that is likely to be extended, those prices or costs rather than the prices and costs referred to in paragraph (a).

 

The forecast summary pricing table identifies benchmark reference pricing that apply to the Company.
