TALISMAN ENERGY ANNOUNCES FIRST OIL

FROM ITS ENOCH DEVELOPMENT

CALGARY, Alberta - May 31, 2007 - Talisman North Sea Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Talisman Energy Inc., has commenced production from the Enoch field.

The Enoch field is located 160 miles northeast of Aberdeen and straddles the UK and Norwegian sectors in UKCS Block 16/13a and NCS Block 15/5 (unitized at 80% and 20%, respectively).

“The Enoch discovery has passed through a number of operators since 1985. We are pleased to have brought this cross-border field to production in a short period of time since acquiring the field along with other Paladin assets,” said Dr. Jim Buckee, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We appreciate the assistance given by the UK and Norwegian Governments in resolving the cross-border issues."

The Enoch Field was discovered in 1985. Talisman North Sea Limited drilled the single horizontal development well in 2006, which is expected to produce at a peak rate of 15,000 boe/d. Enoch production will be transported to and processed at the Brae Alpha facility, some 10 miles to the northwest of Enoch. Oil will be exported via the Forties pipeline network.

Forward-Looking Statements

This news release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements or forward-looking information (collectively “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding: initial production estimates from the Enoch field; intended pipeline network and processing facility to be utilized; business plans; and other expectations, beliefs, plans, goals, objectives, assumptions, information and statements about possible future events, conditions, results of operations or performance.

Often, but not always, forward-looking statements use words or phrases such as: “expects,” “does not expect” or “is expected,” “anticipates” or “does not anticipate,” “plans” or “planned,” “estimates” or “estimated,” “projects” or “projected,” “forecasts” or “forecasted,” “believes,” “intends,” “likely,” “possible,” “probable,” “scheduled,” “positioned,” “goals,” or “objectives” or state that certain actions, events or results “may,” “could,” “would,” “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved.

Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by Talisman and described in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include:

• the risks of the oil and gas industry, such as operational risks in exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas, market demand and unpredictable facilities outages;

•risks and uncertainties involving geology of oil and gas deposits;

•the uncertainty of reserves estimates, reserves life and underlying reservoir risk;

• the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses;

• potential delays or changes in plans with respect to development projects;

• risk that adequate pipeline capacity to transport the gas to market may not be available;

•health, safety and environmental risks;

•changes to general economic and business conditions;

• the possibility that government policies or laws may change or governmental approvals may be delayed or withheld; and

•the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy.

Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of risks and uncertainties is not exhaustive. Additional information on these and other factors which could affect the Company’s operations or financial results are included: (1) under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Information Form; and (2) under the headings “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s 2006 Annual Financial Report. Additional information may be found in the Company’s other reports on file with Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of the Company’s management at the time the statements are made. The Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or management’s estimates or opinions change, except as required by law.

Gross Production

In this news release, Talisman makes reference to estimated production volumes. Such production volumes are estimated on a gross basis, which means they are estimated prior to the deduction of royalties and similar payments. In the U.S., net production volumes are reported after the deduction of these amounts.

Boe conversion

In this news release, the calculation of barrels of oil equivalent (boe) is calculated at a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas for one barrel of oil and is based on an energy equivalence conversion method. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalence conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalence at the wellhead.
