CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 30, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tanager Energy Inc. (“Tanager” or the
“Corporation”) (TSXV:TAN)(OTCQB:TANEF) is pleased to announce a new field discovery in the Jones #1 well drilled
in Tanager’s Polk County, Texas joint venture with Paleo Oil Company, LLC. Tanager owns a seventy five percent* (75%) working
interest in the Jones #1 well. The well was completed at a measured depth of 2,512 feet and flow tested over a 72 hour
period. The Jones #1 tested 1,229 mcf gas per day on a 16/64 choke with stabilized flowing pressure of 915 psi, and a
calculated absolute open flow rate of 8,925 mcf gas per day. The well produced no water during its test. The Jones #1 well is
likely to be tied into the same gathering system as Tanager’s Stampede A #1 discovery well, and will therefore now await a gas
pipeline tap and permitting and construction of the necessary gas gathering infrastructure for both wells. Tanager will provide an
update as to timing of construction of the gas sales line when further material information becomes available.
Tanager also announces that testing operations for the Sidekick A #1 well have now concluded. The Sidekick
A #1 well produced non-commercial quantities of gas and water from two separate prospective sandstone sections, and Tanager has
decided to plug and abandon the well.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as
the term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy
or accuracy of this release.
Tanager Energy Inc. is an oil and natural gas and mineral exploration company headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, with executive
