LONDON, May 8, 2018 /CNW/ - SDX Energy Inc. (TSXV, AIM:
SDX), the North Africa focused oil and gas company, is pleased to announce that it has spud its
Kelvin-1X exploration well at South Disouq, Egypt (SDX 55% working interest and operator).

is designed to prove up what the Company believes to be potentially material upside within the concession. The well is
anticipated to take up to 30 days to drill and if successful, will be completed, flow tested and connected to the infrastructure
