Samson Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: SSN; NYSE MKT: SSN):

TOTAL COMPANY PRODUCTION

Samson’s net monthly production for the December 2014 quarter and for January 2015 was as follows:

October November December January
OIL, BO 6,591 17,619 18,906 15,221
GAS, MCF 11,861 9,363 12,102 15,384
BOE 8,567 19,180 20,923 17,785
BOEPD 285 618 675 574

January production was lower than December 2014 due to wells not on production (“ down days”). Drilling and completion operations are the main causes for the ongoing down days: the month of January had 15 more down days than December. However, since our last report Billabong 2-13-14HBK was fraced and a 24 hour I.P test produced an equivalent 1,249 barrels of oil per day and 3.05 MMscf of gas per day. A coil tubing unit has moved onto the Blackdog well where sand cleanout operations have started. The coil unit will remain at this location for clean out operations on the Billabong and Sail & Anchor wells. Bootleg 4 is currently undergoing sand cleanout;, Ironbank 6 has been fracked and is currently flowing back, and Ironbank 7 has been fracked, flowed back, and is expected to be on production this week. Bootleg 8 and Ironbank 4 and 5 have been brought on line.
