Against the background of Hurricane Harvey's devastating effects and unprecedented flooding in Southern Texas, U.S.A, Matra Petroleum provides the following update on operations and well completions.

 

Matra Petroleum operates in the Texas Panhandle in northern Texas. Hurricane Harvey has not affected this region and Matra Petroleum's operations continue without interruption. All 10 new wells drilled in 2017 have now been completed and put on production. Matra's oil and gas production continues to increase and currently amounts to approximately 750 boe per day, gross, out of which approximately 55% is oil and 45% is natural gas and natural gas liquids. As previously reported, the average gross daily production in the second quarter 2017 amounted to 674 boe per day. Matra continues to execute the strategy to add more productive wells and lower production costs per boe to further improve profitability.
