Successful Drilling and Completion of Second Production Well at Dussafu

Oslo, 26 June 2018 - Panoro Energy (the "Company" or "Panoro" with OSE ticker:

"PEN") is pleased to announce the successful drilling and completion of the

second development well, DTM-3H, located in the Tortue field, within the Dussafu

PSC, offshore Gabon.

The drilling of DTM-3H oil production well commenced in May 2018 and has now

been successfully completed with no safety-related incidents, on schedule and

within budget. Interpretation of the logging results indicates that the well was

entirely consistent with pre-drill prognosis and objectives. DTM-3H was drilled

and completed as a horizontal production well in the Gamba reservoir and

encountered a long horizontal section of oil saturated Gamba sandstone as

prognosed. The well has been suspended pending arrival and hook up to the FPSO

in the third quarter 2018.

The rig will now move to drill the Ruche North East well, DRNEM-1, which is

targeting an undrilled 4-way structure in the Gamba reservoir with Dentale

potential. The DRNEM-1 well will be located approximately 3.5 km north east of

the Ruche field in water depths of 117m. DRNEM-1 is expected to take

approximately 40 days to drill. The objective of the well is to prove up

additional resources in the greater Ruche area, to be aggregated with the

existing Ruche field (which was discovered by Panoro in 2011) to form the basis

of future development phases.

John Hamilton, Chief Executive Officer Panoro Energy said: "We are very pleased

with the result of this second production well, which has come in on prognosis

and is a key de-risking milestone in the Phase 1 development at Dussafu. We now

look forward to start drilling the Ruche North East well in order to continue

unlocking the considerable exploration potential at Dussafu".
