Ng Energy Provides Update On Sinu-9 Production

CALGARY, April 25, 2025 - NG Energy International Corp. ("NGE" or the "Company") (TSXV: GASX) (OTCQX: GASXF) is pleased to announce that the Company has achieved steady production volumes in excess of 10 MMcf/d from its Magico-1X well and Brujo-1X well with the successful gathering, treatment, compression and delivery of the gas under the Unified Transportation Regulation's ("RUT") quality conditions to the Promigas National Transportation System.

From the Magico-1X well, over the course of 20 days, the Company gradually increased production from 7.4 MMcf/d at a 32/64" choke to 12.2 MMcf/d at a 50.5/64" choke, while maintaining a reduced drawdown of the wellhead pressure, producing minimal condensates in the gas, and maintaining humidity well under 3.5 lbs per MMcf; thus fully in compliance with RUT conditions. The well significantly outperformed the drillstem tests ("DSTs") completed in August 2022, for example:

• 32/64" choke:
  • August 2022 DST: production rate of 5.8 MMcf/d and wellhead pressure of 1,100 psi; versus
  • March 2025: production rate of 7.4 MMcf/d and wellhead pressure of 1,180 psi.
• 48/64" choke:
  • August 2022 DST: production rate of 10.4 MMcf/d and wellhead pressure of 1,000 psi; versus
  • April 2025: production rate of 10.9 MMcf/d and wellhead pressure of 1,028 psi.

After producing from the Magico-1X well for 20 days with positive results, the Company shut-in the Magico-1X well and switched to the Brujo-1X well, which is currently producing. Thus far, from the upper zone of the Brujo-1X well, over the course of 10 days, the Company gradually increased production from 7.7 MMcf/d at a 30/64" choke to 10 MMcf/d at a 40/64" choke, while maintaining a reduced drawdown of the wellhead pressure, producing an average of 0.15 bbl/day of condensates in the gas, and maintaining humidity well under 2.0 lbs per MMcf; thus fully in compliance with RUT conditions. The initial production test results of the upper zone of the Brujo-1X well outperform the DST completed in August 2022 with significantly lower drawdowns and higher flow rates as the choke is increased.

"We are very pleased with the production of our Magico-1X and Brujo-1X wells at Sinu-9 and the management of the dew point of our gas through the INFRAES mobile plant," said Brian Paes-Braga, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. "The last month of production has confirmed that with the right surface solutions and partners, we can unlock one of the most prolific gas reservoirs in Colombia at Sinu-9."

Production capacity at Sinu-9 is expected to be increased to over 40 MMcf/d by early Q3 2025 after the installation of equipment for the processing of condensates associated with gas production at the Company's Central Processing Facility, which was originally commissioned in November 2024.

Information Regarding the Company's Working Interest Disclosure

With regard to the Company's working interests held in both the Maria Conchita and Sinu-9 Blocks, in both the context of this news release and the Company's previous news releases, the term "working interest", ultimately refers to the rights and obligations agreed to, eventually, materialize a contractual interest in an exploration and production contract before the Colombian Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos (the "ANH"), subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions. These conditions involve the assumption of financial risks and are generally linked to exploration by virtue of joint operating agreements. Once such conditions are fulfilled, the acquisition of a registered contractual interest, as party of record, in the exploration and production contract may materialize, by way of a request for approval of assignment before the ANH. For this reason, as is common practice within the oil and natural gas industry as a whole, the disclosed "working interest" may not coincide with the Company's current contractual interest in the exploration and production contract.

The assignment and allocation of "working interests" does not affect or undermine, in any way, the rights and obligations of registered parties under the relevant exploration and production contracts. Registered parties remain wholly and totally liable before the ANH, the Colombian authorities and third parties in connection with any and all obligations, risks and liabilities derived from the execution, performance or termination of the exploration and production contracts. Conversely, the rights and obligations that comprise "working interests" are only enforceable vis a vis between the executing parties under private agreements, and have no legal effects before the ANH, the Colombian authorities or third parties.

As of the date hereof, the Company is a party of record and holds a 51% contractual interest, in the exploration and production contract for the Sinu-9 Block granted by and entered into with ANH. However, under the private agreements regarding the working interests in the Sinu-9 Block, the Company holds a 72% working interest. This means a 21% working interest is yet to be assigned and acknowledged as a contractual interest in the exploration and production contract, given the conditions to do so, including ANH approval, are yet to be fulfilled. Once these conditions are met, the Company will submit an approval request with ANH.

As disclosed in the Company's news release dated February 10, 2025, the Company has agreed to sell a 40% contractual interest in the exploration and production contract for the Sinu-9 Block to Etablissements Maurel & Prom S.A., effective as of February 1, 2025. Additionally, Clean Energy Resources S.A.S. remains the operator of record under such exploration and production contract and before the ANH.

With respect to the Maria Conchita Block, the Company holds 100% of the contractual interest as the sole party and operator of record under the relevant exploration and production contract entered into with the ANH, and holds an 80% working interest under private agreements with third parties.
