Panoro Energy - Provisional Exploration License Award Offshore Gabon

Oslo, 11 October 2021 - Panoro Energy ASA ("Panoro") is pleased to announce that
it has provisionally been awarded a 25.0% non-operated interest in exploration
blocks G12-13 and H12-13 offshore shallow water Gabon, as notified in writing by
the Minister of Petroleum, Gas and Mining of the Republic of Gabon. The
provisional license award is part of the 12th Offshore Licensing Round and
remains subject to final agreement of the terms of the production sharing
contracts (PSC's) with the Government of Gabon. Partners in the blocks will
include BW Energy (37.5% and operator) and VAALCO Energy (37.5%).

The G12-13 and H12-13 blocks cover a surface area of 2,989 km2 and 1,929 km2
respectively and are adjacent to the producing Dussafu Marin Permit ("Dussafu
PSC") in which Panoro holds a 17.5% interest and is partnered with BW Energy.
The G12-13 block is also adjacent to the producing Etame Marin PSC which is
operated by VAALCO Energy. Both the Dussafu PSC and Etame Marin PSC continue to
be successfully explored and developed by the partners with an estimated
combined 250 million barrels discovered to date and multiple fields put into
production.

It is expected that the PSC's over the two blocks will have an exploration
period of eight years with an option to extend by a further two years. During
the exploration period the partners intend to carry out a work programme which
may include reprocessing of existing seismic, new seismic acquisition and
exploration drilling.

John Hamilton, CEO of Panoro, commented:

"Panoro has been present in Gabon since 2008, during which time we have
organically grown reserves and production at the Dussafu Marin Permit and in so
doing developed an in-depth understanding of the hydrocarbon geology and
operating environment. Blocks G12-13 and H12-13 are a logical and contiguous
extension of our footprint in a core area and by forming an exciting partnership
with BW Energy and VAALCO Energy, we will be able to leverage our collective
experience to mature and high grade the exploration potential on the blocks in
the coming years. Panoro remains committed to grow in Gabon and further expand
its partnership with the Gabonese Government and other stakeholders."
