Samson Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: SSN; NYSE MKT: SSN):

NORTH STOCKYARD PROJECT, WILLIAMS COUNTY, NORTH DAKOTA

Blackdog 3-13-14H (SSN WI 25.03%)

Frontier Rig 24 has moved off of the Little Creature 1-15-14H well and rigged up on the Blackdog 3-13-14H well. The Blow Out Preventer’s are currently being tested before the drill out of the surface casing, which had previously been set at 2,367 feet, today or tomorrow. This well will be a middle Bakken lateral and is expected to follow the previously planned Swan trajectory, that is, the infill location between the Rodney 1-14H well (SSN WI 27.18%) and the Sail and Anchor 1-13-14HBK well (SSN WI 25.03%).

Frac operations Tofte 2 pad

With the pad vacated by the drilling rig, preparations to fracture stimulate the Coopers (SSN WI 27.7%), Tooheys (SSN WI 27.7%), and Little Creature (SSN WI 27.7%) wells have begun. Fracture stimulation operations are currently expected to commence as early as next week and should be completed by mid-December.

Bluff #1-11 (SSN WI 66%)

Construction of the access road and drilling pad for the Bluff #1-11 well site is currently underway. When location construction is complete, cellar/conductor/rathole and mousehole will be installed in preparation for the drilling rig. Drilling operations are currently expected to commence towards the end of November depending upon weather and rig arrival.
