CALGARY, Alberta, Sept. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Record Resources reports 3D seismic reprocessing and a resource report on its 20 percent-owned Ngulu oil block in Gabon to be completed by year-end.

As disclosed in Consortium Partner, Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. (September 28, 2026 news release): “The 3D seismic reprocessing program is utilizing the most current state-of-the art reprocessing technology. The reprocessing project is expected to be completed before year end, concurrently a resource report will be commissioned and appraisal well locations to the Loba oil discovery will be selected. Well planning has commenced for an anticipated spud.”

As reported by Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd., the 3D seismic reprocessing technology includes DUG’s Full Waveform Inversion (MP-FWI) to help illuminate oil bearing reservoirs within the Loba discovery and the vast salt related exploration inventory mapped by the previous operator on the concession.

Prior to 1995, previous operators would only have been able to utilize 2D seismic for geophysical surveys. While 2D was a vast improvement over gravity and magnetic surveys, it was not nearly as effective at guiding and determining drilling locations as 3D seismic. From this point of view, the Ngulu Block remains relatively unexplored.

The consortium is exploring the Ngulu block, which covers 1,214 Km2and is equivalent to 54 Gulf of Mexico blocks, is in shallow water offshore central Gabon. This strategic block is located on trend to several sizable producing oil fields. The key aspects of the Ngulu Block include the _Loba oil field discovery_and _over 28 seismically identified prospects_in the _Pre-salt Gamba / Dentale_and _Post-salt plays _(See figure 1 below).

Figure 1:

Our marquee prospects on the block include _Lepidote Deep_(Post-salt play), the _Palomite Complex_including Deep (Pre-salt play) and shallow (Post Salt) prospects and the _Pompano complex_with both postsalt and subsalt prospects.

The Loba discovery was made by Elf-Gabon’s LOM-1 well, which targeted the Batanga and Anguille reservoirs. The LOM-1 well discovered a shallow oil zone (27oAPI gravity oil) in the Batanga Formation with 140 metres of gross oil column (70 metres net pay) and is similar to nearby producing fields Barbier, Barbier Southwest and Ablette.

The Loba oil discovery was made in 60 metres of water depth and is approximately 10 kilometres from the Barbier field existing infrastructure, operated by international oil company Perenco. Management believes that low-cost options are available for the development of the Loba Complex_,_which include the initial Loba oil discovery and follow-on appraisal targets at Loba Deep and Loba East.

The Loba complex (See figure 2 below), has potential production of ~20,000 Bbl/d (1)(2)(3)(4)based on offset fields. Wells in analogous fields have shown Initial production rates ("IP rates") up to 7,600 Bbl/d of oil with a single completion (1)(2)(3)(4). These analogous wells are located within 40 km from the Loba Oil Complex and are in the same targeted reservoir.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:

This news release contains forward-looking statements and/or forward-looking information (collectively, "forward-looking statements") that are based on Record Resources’ current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections. The words "estimates", "projects", "expects", "intends", "believes", "plans", or their negatives or other comparable words and phrases are intended to identify forward-looking statements and include statements regarding management's expectation anticipated production timeline, the 28 mapped prospects; management's exploration and development plans; and all other expectations, intentions, and plans that are not historical fact.

Forward‐looking statements are based on a number of material factors, expectations, or assumptions of Record Resources which have been used to develop such statements and information but which may prove to be incorrect. Although Record Resources believes that the expectations reflected in such forward‐looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on forward‐looking statements because Record Resources can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. In addition to other factors and assumptions which may be identified herein, assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: that Record Resources will continue to conduct its operations in a manner consistent with past operations; the quality of the reservoirs in which Record Resources operates; the timely development of infrastructure in areas of new production; certain cost assumptions; continued availability of equity financing to fund Record Resources’ current and future plans and expenditures; the impact of increasing competition; the general stability of the economic and political environment in which Record Resources operates; the general continuance of current industry conditions; the timely receipt of any required regulatory approvals; the ability of Record Resources to obtain qualified staff, equipment and services in a timely and cost efficient manner; drilling results; the ability of Record Resources to obtain financing on acceptable terms; the ability to replace and expand oil and natural gas reserves through acquisition, development and exploration; the timing and cost of facility construction and expansion and the ability of Record Resources to secure adequate product transportation; future commodity prices; currency, exchange and interest rates; regulatory framework regarding royalties, taxes and environmental matters in the jurisdictions in which Record Resources operates; and the ability of Record Resources to successfully market its oil and natural gas products.

A barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

Analogous Information Certain information in this document may constitute "analogous information" as defined in National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI-51-101 "), including but not limited to, information relating to the reservoirs in geographical proximity to lands that are held (or to be held) by Record Resources. Such information has been obtained from government sources, regulatory agencies or other industry participants. Record Resources believes the information is relevant as it helps to define the reservoir characteristics in which Record Resources may hold (or acquire) an interest. Record Resources is unable to confirm that the analogous information was prepared by a qualified reserves evaluator or auditor. Such information is not an estimate of the reserves or resources (or production levels) attributable to lands held or potentially to be held by Record Resources and there is no certainty that the reservoir data and economics information for the lands held or potentially to be held by Record Resources will be similar to the information presented herein. The reader is cautioned that the data relied upon by Record Resources may be in error and/or may not be analogous to such lands to be held by Record Resources.
