CALGARY, Alberta, Nov. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Questerre Energy Corporation (“Questerre” or the “Company”)
(TSX,OSE:QEC) reported today the test results from the second well at Kakwa North.
The operator recently completed the second farm-in well, 100/01-04-64-6W6M well (the "01-04 Well"), with a 2900m
horizontal leg in the Montney Formation. During the last 24 hours of a 200-hour production test, the 01-04 Well flowed 9.8 MMcf/d
of natural gas and 1,124 bbls/d of condensate (2,770 boe/d). Although the early results from the 01-04 Well are encouraging they
are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery.
The operator intends to tie-in the 01-04 Well to the pipeline currently under construction. Questerre will hold
a royalty interest in the 01-04 Well subject to standard payout provisions.
Michael Binnion, President and Chief Executive Officer of Questerre, commented, “With two wells testing at an
average rate of 2,800 boe/d, we are proving up the potential of Kakwa North. One more farm-in well should spud early next year.
Together with our recently acquired 17 sections, we are looking forward to developing this large contiguous block with our
partner.”
Questerre Energy Corporation is leveraging its expertise gained through early exposure to shale and other
non-conventional reservoirs. The Company has base production and reserves in the tight oil Bakken/Torquay of southeast
Saskatchewan. It is bringing on production from its lands in the heart of the high-liquids Montney shale fairway. It is pursuing
oil shale projects with the aim of commercially developing these massive resources.
Questerre is a believer that the future success of the oil and gas industry depends on a balance of economics,
environment and society. We are committed to being transparent and are respectful that the public must be part of making the
important choices for our energy future.
Advisory Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains certain statements which constitute forward-looking statements or information
(“forward-looking statements”) including the operator’s plans to tie-in the 01-04 Well, the Company’s views that it is proving up
the potential for Kakwa North, its expectation that one more farm-in well should spud early next year and its plans to develop its
contiguous acreage with its partner. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of material factors, expectations or
assumptions of Questerre which have been used to develop such statements and information but which may prove to be incorrect.
Although Questerre believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable,
undue reliance should not be placed on them because Questerre can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since
forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Further, events or circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted as a
result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company,
including, without limitation: whether the Company's exploration and development activities respecting its prospects will be
successful or that material volumes of petroleum and natural gas reserves will be encountered, or if encountered can be produced on
a commercial basis; the ultimate size and scope of any hydrocarbon bearing formations on its lands; that drilling operations on its
lands will be successful such that further development activities in these areas are warranted; that Questerre will continue to
conduct its operations in a manner consistent with past operations; results from drilling and development activities will be
consistent with past operations; the general stability of the economic and political environment in which Questerre operates;
drilling results; field production rates and decline rates; the general continuance of current industry conditions; the timing and
cost of pipeline, storage and facility construction and expansion and the ability of Questerre to secure adequate product
transportation; future commodity prices; currency, exchange and interest rates; regulatory framework regarding royalties, taxes and
environmental matters in the jurisdictions in which Questerre operates; and the ability of Questerre to successfully market its oil
and natural gas products; changes in commodity prices; changes in the demand for or supply of the Company's products; unanticipated
operating results or production declines; changes in tax or environmental laws, changes in development plans of Questerre or by
third party operators of Questerre's properties, increased debt levels or debt service requirements; inaccurate estimation of
Questerre's oil and gas reserve and resource volumes; limited, unfavourable or a lack of access to capital markets; increased
costs; a lack of adequate insurance coverage; the impact of competitors; and certain other risks detailed from time-to-time in

Questerre undertakes no obligations to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws.
Barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") amounts may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion
ratio has been calculated using a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil and the conversion
ratio of one barrel to six thousand cubic feet is based on an energy equivalent conversion method application at the burner tip and
does not necessarily represent an economic value equivalent at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price
of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalent of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a
6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
