May 30, 2023 – Surge Energy US Holdings Company (“Surge Energy” or the “Company”) today announced
the Company celebrated its eighth anniversary of the Company’s founding.
Surge Energy was founded in May 2015 and has since accumulated over 160,000 net acres in the Permian
Basin, drilled and completed approximately 498 horizontal wells, grown production by over 16 times from
2015 production levels, and conserved over 4.6 billion gallons of fresh water through the utilization of the
Company’s produced water recycling system. Additionally, since its inception, Surge has contributed over
$7.3 billion to the Texas economy which includes cumulative oil and gas revenues, royalty and working
interest payments, and production taxes. First quarter 2023 production was approximately 58,000 net
barrels of oil equivalent per day which was the highest first quarter production in Company history.
The Company is well-positioned for future opportunities with substantial reserve life and low-breakeven
economics for undeveloped drilling opportunities. As of year-end 2022, the Company’s Ryder Scott
Reserve report included approximately 12 years of remaining inventory life at a 3-operated drilling rig
pace. The remaining proved undeveloped inventory was approximately 4.5 years also at a 3-operated
drilling rig pace and averaged a breakeven oil price of $33 per barrel. Additionally, the Company’s proven
reserve life is 15 years which is calculated by year-end 2022 Ryder Scott SEC Proved Reserves divided by
2022 annual production.
“Surge is well positioned for future growth of the business due to the Company’s strong financial
position and opportunities to continue to develop the Company’s existing assets at strong economics
with low breakevens,” stated CEO Linhua Guan. “We are excited to continue to deliver results in an
efficient and sustainable manner.”
