Resource Estimates Point to Significant Find at Lofin Field in Indonesia

Lion Energy Limited (Lion or Company) reported Thursday contingent resources for the Lofin Field. The estimates confirm a significant gas/ condensate discovery in the Seram Non-Bula Block PSC, located in eastern Indonesia, in which Lion has a 2.5 percent interest.

The contingent resource estimates compiled by Lion are based on analyses of available data including 2D seismic coverage and data acquired from the Lofin-1 ST and Lofin-2 wells (both wells tested gas and condensate in the fractured limestone of the Manusela Formation).
