Rio de Janeiro, Brazil/Hamilton, Bermuda, 20 November 2024: Seacrest Petroleo
Bermuda Limited ("Seacrest Petroleo" or the "Company") today reported third
quarter 2024 unaudited results. The report and results presentation are
attached hereto and can be found on the Company website
www.seacrestpetroleo.com.
"During the third quarter we proved our ability to execute our drilling
program within schedule and on budget. With a single rig, we drilled ten wells
at a rate of approximately four per month. Several of these new infill wells
have started producing, achieving initial production rates in line with
expectations. Our good drilling performance and reassuring well performance
have de-risked the core operating element of our strategy. We have also made
progress on our financial strategy to strengthen our capital structure. Since
we reported second quarter results, we raised USD 8 million in a convertible
bond and in October entered into term sheets for an investment in one of our
subsidiaries and for an offtake prepayment arrangement which, if implemented,
will result in additional liquidity of up to USD 257 million in aggregate. I
also want to thank our operating team members in the field. They have taken
every opportunity over the past year to demonstrate their ability to rapidly
and safely respond to challenges. With the right capital structure in place, I
have no doubt that Seacrest Petroleo has the talent and the assets to execute
on our long-term strategy." -- says Jose Cotello, CEO, Seacrest Petroleo
Bermuda Limited

including the impact of realised hedging loss of USD 1.1 million
* EBITDA is negative USD 8.9 million, down from positive USD 9.5 million in
the second quarter, including the impact of realised hedging loss of USD 1.1
million

0.2 million from the second quarter

Operational performance
* Total production 6 843 boepd in the quarter, down 14% sequentially. During
the quarter, the Brazilian National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and
Biofuels (ANP) required the Company to construct modifications on truck
loading sites which resulted in a temporary reduction of production.
* Production cost per boe USD 28.3 for quarter, up 8% sequentially, driven by
a 13% drop in volumes partially offset by a 5% drop in gross production
cost.
* No serious incidents occurred in the third quarter. In October, one infill
well that was not yet producing oil experienced a steam leak; the impact to
the surrounding area was light, with no injuries to personnel, and cleanup
is now substantially complete.
Strategic priorities
* Good infill drilling results, with ten wells drilled with new rig, and
initial production consistent with expectations
* Reinforcing financial strength:
i. Raised USD 8 million via convertible bond offering
ii. Debt refinancing process ongoing
