Indonesia Energy Daily Production Rate Increases Over 50% With Recently Completed “Kruh 26” Well

Additional well drilling on the Kruh Block anticipated to commence within 60 Days

JAKARTA, INDONESIA and DANVILLE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 20, 2021 / Indonesia Energy Corporation Limited (NYSE American:INDO) (IEC), an oil and gas exploration and production company focused on Indonesia, today announced that its daily oil production rate has increased over 50% as a result of the recently completed "Kruh 26" well on its 63,000-acre Kruh Block.

IEC's average daily production rate over the first 10 months of 2021 was approximately 160 barrels of oil per day. Since completion of the Kruh 26 well, IEC has been averaging production of approximately 245 barrels of oil per day. IEC anticipates that as the Kruh 26 well continues to de-water, its production rate of oil is expected to increase.

In a further update to its previously announced Kruh Block drilling program for 2021, IEC announced that its "Kruh 25" well is currently shut-in as a result of significant damage due to flooding during an extended period of heavy monsoon rain leading to extremely difficult working conditions caused by a deteriorated drill site and inadequate equipment performance. Kruh-25 will be the subject of remedial workover activities so that it can attempt to match the results of the Kruh-26 well.

After evaluation of the successful results from the Kruh-26 well, IEC now plans to commence drilling two back-to-back producing wells at Kruh Block commencing in approximately 60 days. IEC's production target is to be producing approximately 450 barrels of oils per day after completion of these next two wells. IEC also plans to commence drilling on two additional wells at Kruh Block during the third quarter of 2022.

These new wells are part of IEC's overall previously announced plan to drill a total of 18 new wells on the Kruh Block over the next 3 years. In order to help meet its drilling plan goals for Kruh Block, IEC is in the process of completing plans to conduct a 30KM seismic program on the Kruh Block which should help to optimize well selection.

The Kruh 26 well cost approximately $1.5 million to drill and complete (exactly matching the planned drilling budget). Based on the terms of IEC's contract with the Indonesian government and an assumed oil price of $73 per barrel (the current price), this well is expected to generate approximately $1.5 million in net revenue in its first year, which is enough to recover the cost to drill such well.

Mr. Frank Ingriselli, IEC's President, commented "We are excited with the results of the Kruh 26 well which has led to a more than 50% increase in our overall daily production. This progress moves our company closer to a cash flow positive position and sets the stage for significant future growth. We believe Kruh Block is a world class asset that should significantly grow our cash flow as we drill additional wells and seek to maximize returns on our investments and grow shareholder value."
