The production composition is forecast to become lighter and less gassy as recently implemented waterfloods take effect and simple, lucrative development materializes.

Venturion – 5,700 boepd (~84% oil) Conventional Waterflood Opportunity

Opportunity Highlights - 100% Conventional Waterflood Asset Base

100% W.I. properties with 100% W.I. facilities and infrastructure

Simple, effective approach develops cash-flow generators

Bank credit facility recently increased to $100MM

Estimated March realized oil price of approximately $56/bbl

Improving realized price: $62.55/bbl on April 3 closing prices

Low-risk opportunities to add production and reserves

Increase of 2.3 MMbbl of TP and 2.6 MMbbl of TPP reserves in under six months (PDP increase of 1.8 MMbbl and PPDP increase of 2.7 MMbbl)

Geologically similar oil pools with large original oil-in-place (OOIP) volumes and low current recovery factors

Conventional waterflood oil pool production creates a multitude of

opportunities to improve recovery factors and expand OOIP

Three new waterfloods implemented in the last year set up future development drilling; four-year inventory identified

Routine drilling can have exceptional results

Boundary Lake North 04-29-087-14W6 (02-31 surface) flowed at 1,000 bbl/d for six months with no frac

Killam 102/04-14-046-12W4: July 2017 well produced at 300 bbl/d flat for the first six months

Excellent liability management ratios (LMR) of 8.16 in Alberta and 5.50 in British Columbia

Source: geoSCOUT, Venturion Oil Limited, Alberta Energy Regulator, BC Oil & Gas Commission Production values are company estimates for the week of March 20 - 26, 2018. Reserve increase references the increase from October 31, 2017 report to March 31, 2018 report. March realized price is an approximation as actual values are not yet available. Production composition is based on sales volumes from December 2017 lease operating statements.

Field Cash Flow of ~$51MM Forecast to Increase

Source: geoSCOUT, Venturion Oil Limited, GLJ Reserves Report Effective March 31, 2018 using the GLJ April 1, 2018 Price Forecast

Corporate Production

As the largest and most mature property in the company, Killam has underpinned the company’s flat production profile

Killam accounts for 36% of the total corporate value and generates half of the cash flow to grow the other properties

Expect the remaining properties to see reserve additions as their waterflood projects continue to mature

GLJ 2018 annualized cash flow: $60.8MM

More than half ($75.1MM) of the probable additional reserves are associated with improved performance of the PDP wells

Therefore, minimal capital is required to capture the bulk of the probable reserves

Oil Volumes - 2P Reserves By Area Total: 26 MMbbl

Value - 2P By Area (BT NPV10%) Total: $470MM

Value - 2P by Reserves Category (BT NPV10%)

Only $2.5MM maintenance capital spent from June - Dec. 2017 to keep production flat and generate $20MM cash flow

Pressure decline coupled with elevated GORs adversely affecting oil rates

Commence waterflood in a capital efficient manner

Watch producer pressures

Declines shallow and then production slowly increases

Initial reserve recognition

Field responding, time to invest

Upsize pumps in producers

Drill infill wells

Add facilities to handle fluid

Convert wells where more water is required

Expand pool size with

Summary

Conventional medium and light oil pools with proven waterflood development

Strong anchor with Killam supporting a stable production base of 4,765 bopd and a corporate decline of less than 10% per year

Low capital requirements to execute the reserves forecast

Major facility capital has already been spent to allow for all growth plans

Growth opportunities are light oil and will raise the corporate API

Low operating expenses and improved liquids weighting drive increasing netbacks

March realized price is an approximation as actual values are not yet available

Equivalencies may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.
