PetroTal Announces Q2 2026 Operations and Financial Updates

PetroTal Corp. ("PetroTal" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following operational and financial updates. All amounts are in US dollars unless stated otherwise. Key Highlights - Group production averaged 12,557 barrels of oil per day ("bopd") in Q2 2026, and 13,726 bopd in H1 2026; - Sale of Amazonia-1 drilling rig for net cash proceeds of $13.4 million; - Total cash of $136.8 million as of June 30, 2026 ($105.3 million unrestricted), compared to $128.1 million at the end of Q1 2026. Manuel Pablo Zuniga-Pflucker, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "PetroTal's operational performance remained strong in the second quarter of 2026. Our production is tracking approximately 3% ahead of budget through the first half of the year, and we also completed the sale of the Amazonia-1 drilling rig at the end of the quarter. This transaction, along with a constructive commodity price environment, helped support our cash balance as we gear up for an active capital program in the second half of the year. Beginning this month, we are undertaking pump and tubing replacement jobs on 4-5 wells at the Bretana field. This work will help improve our production deliverability over the remainder of the year and is fully accounted for within our budget guidance. We are also well advanced with final preparations for the resumption of our development drilling campaign in October, which we view as a key catalyst for the Company heading into 2027. We look forward to providing a more comprehensive operational update with our Q2 2026 financial results on August 6, 2026."
