Shale Play Development – A New Paradigm Amros Corporation Shale Play Development – A New Paradigm Dr. Vladimir Ingerman, President 2017 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Shale Development Issues 4/10/17 Traditional interpretation of well log is not applicable for formation evaluation in shale plays 95% of oil from shale plays is left in the ground Two thirds of hydraulic fracturing stages do not produce commercially Amros Technology Solves These Problems 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2017 by Amros Corporation – All Rights Reserved

Amros Proven Technology Advanced formation evaluation that derives a Production Profile that shows productivity along entire wellbore in barrels per day. This allows operators: 1. Ideally position horizontal wells, and optimize locations of fracking stages in vertical and horizontal wells 2. Identify missed oil and gas production intervals 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

© Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved Proven Technology 4/10/17 Proprietary equation to calculate permeability and well production from open hole log data Based on analysis of hundreds of hydrodynamic or pressure build-up well tests Successfully applied for conventional deposits in Russia, USA, Kazakhstan, Mexico, and Canada Proved by test results in more than 100 Permian Basin wells and Marcellus shale Amros Technology Fully Developed, Available NOW 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2017 by Amros Corporation – All Rights Reserved

Amros Value Proposition Am Amros Value Proposition Precise targeting of best intervals for vertical wells: increase well production by at least 20% decrease cost of fracturing up to 80% Optimize location for horizontal wells resulting in significant increase in production and ultimate recovery Lower environmental impact FRACK LESS – PRODUCE MORE 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Frack Less – Produce More Confirmed in blind test Operator, Pink stages 374 ft.; 8 bbl./day. Horizontal well 7000 ft. – 150 bbl./day Amros, Brown stage 157 ft.; 13 bbl./day. Horizontal well 7000 ft. – 580 bbl./day 4 times more. We can optimize the horizontal wells placement 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Frack Less – Produce More Operator, Pink stages 424 ft.; 9 bbl./day. Horizontal well 7000 ft. – 150 bbl./day Amros, Brown stage 87 ft.; 11 bbl./day. Horizontal well 7000 ft. – 880 bbl./day 6 times more. We can identify previously missed oil 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Optimize Location and Number of Horizontal Wells Horizontal well 1, 7000 ft. – 550 bbl./day Horizontal well 2, 7000 ft. – 520 bbl./day Wrong Entry Point, 7000 ft. – 160 bbl./day 1,070 bbl./day vs. 160 bbl./day 7 times more 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Horizontal Well Navigation Navigate horizontal well through the best intervals based on Production Profile from vertical wells. Future production of horizontal wells can be accurately predicted. For Permian Basin two high producing horizontal wells can be drilled in the same location. 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Cost-Value Analysis of Amros Technology Actual: 2,652 ft. hydraulic fracking produced 36 bbl./day production Amros recommendation: fracking 484 ft. would have produced 50 bbl./day For oil price $50 / Barrel Increased cum oil production $1,050,000 Fracking cost savings $550,000 Total opportunity cost $1,600,000 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Lower Environmental Impact 4/10/17 Existing Frack Length:  2,652 feet with 36 bbl./day production Amros Frack Length:  484 feet (or 18% of existing frack length) with 50 bbl./day production The Amros technology saves a 82% in water and proppant consumption  4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2017 by Amros Corporation – All Rights Reserved

Actual vs. Predicted Production Predicted production was based on Amros Production Profile derived from open-hole logs. The chart for 51 wells shows great correlation between Amros predicted production and actual production. 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

© Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved Amros Technology The technology allows operators to identify the best location and trajectory of horizontal wells, avoid missing good productive zones, and optimize location of fracking stages for vertical and horizontal wells. Provides Production Profile and Brittleness, based on open- hole logs, that allow operators to calculate accurately the cost of fracking and initial production of each zone. Accordingly, economically justified initial production for different oil price can be calculated. 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Targeting the Best Formations 80% of the thickness have average initial production 1.5 bbl./day per 100 ft., but for the rest 20% it is 18.0 bbl./day per 100 ft. Horizontal well 7000 ft. for 80% formations will produce 105 bbl./day There are 20% formations that will produce 1260 bbl./day, 12 times more Geometric drilling and completions vs. Advanced formation-evaluation approach 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Case Study: Value of Selective Fracking Cline (bottom circle) - 00 bbl./day Wolfcamp A (upper circle) - 33 bbl./day. Production Profile (the right column) matches well with the results of selective testing. Production Profile saves 4 months and $0.5 million 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Case Study: Production Profile vs. Cutting Analysis The results of cuttings pyrolysis analysis (right 4 columns) are direct measurements in the lab that show movable part of hydrocarbons (green curve). This is valuable information for separating low and high producing zones along the well. Only problem with this data, that it takes a few months to obtain the information. 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Case Study: Production Profile vs. Cutting Analysis Fracking stages (left column in pink), production prediction from cutting analysis (central column) and Amros production profile (right column in green). A Production Profile, that can be calculated from open-hole logs within 24 hours, matches well with the direct measurement from a lab that requires a few months time. 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Case Study: Well Production Comparison 27% 17% 143% 20% 31% Increased Production in the wells that used Amros Production Profile (green) Average Production increase for five groups with 22 wells is 48% 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Competitive Technology Landscape Amros is the only company that provides Production Profile to the customers Company Input Output Amros Standard open-hole log data Production Profile, bbl./day per 100 ft.

FRACK LESS ….. PRODUCE MORE Amros Deliverables Production profile with recommended fracking stages and brittleness for all wells Production maps for the best formations Recommended trajectories for horizontal wells with initial production estimation FRACK LESS ….. PRODUCE MORE 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved

Gain More Value from Your Acreage Position Amros technology will radically change the Shale development paradigm by increasing Operator’s success rate Increasing production and reducing development cost Accessing reserves missed by conventional development Increasing recovery efficiency Reducing environmental impact 4/7/2017 © Copyright 2017 by Amros Corporation - All Rights Reserved
