Beetaloo Operational Update
24 July 2023 -- Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. (TSXV: FO, AIM: FOG)
is pleased to provide an update on operations as the Company
prepares to drill the Shenandoah South 1H ("SS1H") well in the
Beetaloo Sub-Basin, Australia with Falcon Oil & Gas Australia
Limited's joint venture partner, Tamboran (B2) Pty Limited.
-- The H&P (Helmerich & Payne) rig has been successfully mobilised to the
SS1H well pad location, in exploration permit 117, ahead of drilling the
first of a two well programme in 2023.
-- Drilling of the SS1H well is expected to commence in early August 2023,
subject to final joint venture approval, with drilling operations
expected to take approximately 45 days.
-- The SS1H well will target the Amungee Member B-shale at an estimated
target depth of 3,200 metres, (approximately 700 metres deeper than the
Amungee NW-2H ("A2H") well in EP 98).
-- The SS1H well will be located approximately 60 kilometres south of the
A2H well site. The deeper reservoir is expected to deliver higher
pressures, based on data from the two Santos-operated Tanumbirini wells
in EP 161.
Ends.

Certain information in this press release may constitute
forward-looking information. Any statements that are contained in
this news release that are not statements of historical fact may be
deemed to be forward-looking information. Forward-looking
information typically contains statements with words such as "may",
"will", "should", "expect", "intend", "plan", "anticipate",
"believe", "estimate", "projects", "dependent", "consider"
"potential", "scheduled", "forecast", "outlook", "budget", "hope",
"suggest", "support" "planned", "approximately", "potential" or the
negative of those terms or similar words suggesting future
outcomes. In particular, forward-looking information in this press
release includes, but is not limited to, information relating to
the H&P mobilisation, a two well programme in 2023, the
estimated target depth of the SS1 well and the assumption that the
deeper reservoir is expected to deliver high pressures. This
information is based on current expectations that are subject to
significant risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.
The risks, assumptions and other factors that could influence
actual results include risks associated with fluctuations in market
prices for shale gas; risks related to the exploration, development
and production of shale gas reserves; general economic, market and
business conditions; substantial capital requirements;
uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of reserves and
resources; extent of, and cost of compliance with, government laws
and regulations and the effect of changes in such laws and
regulations; the need to obtain regulatory approvals before
development commences; environmental risks and hazards and the cost
of compliance with environmental regulations; aboriginal claims;
inherent risks and hazards with operations such as mechanical or
pipe failure, cratering and other dangerous conditions; potential
cost overruns, drilling wells is speculative, often involving
significant costs that may be more than estimated and may not
result in any discoveries; variations in foreign exchange rates;
competition for capital, equipment, new leases, pipeline capacity
and skilled personnel; the failure of the holder of licenses,
leases and permits to meet requirements of such; changes in royalty
regimes; failure to accurately estimate abandonment and reclamation
costs; inaccurate estimates and assumptions by management and their
joint venture partners; effectiveness of internal controls; the
potential lack of available drilling equipment; failure to obtain
or keep key personnel; title deficiencies; geo-political risks; and
risk of litigation.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of important
factors is not exhaustive and that these factors and risks are
difficult to predict. Actual results might differ materially from
results suggested in any forward-looking statements. Falcon assumes
