Sonoro Energy Ltd. announced the commencement of production and positive results at its recently drilled 14-29- 32-23 W3 well. The multilateral horizontal well was run on production at 19:00 on January 10 and over an 11 hour period has produced at an equivalent rate of 178 bbl/d of fluid. The well is currently producing at this rate with a strong volume of casing gas and abundant fluid level in the well.

Field staff are attending to the well hourly and the well is being remotely monitored with a SCADA system that was installed during completion operations. The pump was started at the lowest speed corresponding to the fluid rate currently observed. The Company is in the process of taking initial samples to determine the oil percentage of the produced fluids.

Sonoro plans to optimize production rates by methodically increasing pump speeds and drawing down the fluid level as aim to achieve the total production rates previously stated. Based on these initial results, Sonoro's expectations remain the same in terms of timing for clean up and optimized production rates.
