    NORTH STOCKYARD PROJECT (Samson 50% operated working interest)
    Samson Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: SSN; NYSE MKT: SSN) advises that drilling operations
    commenced on the Billabong 2-13-14HBK yesterday morning which is currently drilling at a depth
    of 6,500’ in the Kibbey Lime. The well will be drilled vertically to a kick off point at 10,824 feet
    (TVD) and 7 inch casing landed at 11,300 feet (TVD) in preparation to drill the 6,100 foot lateral in
    the Middle Bakken Formation.
    SOUTH PRARIE (Samson 25% non-operated working interest)
    The Matson #3-1 well has been drilled to a total depth of 4,825 feet. The partners in the well have
    elected to plug and abandon the well based on the logging and show results. Samson’s share of
    costs incurred in the well is estimated to be approximately $175,000. The data indicates that oil
    migrated through the Mission Canyon reservoir, evidenced by black asphaltic dead oil stain, but
    was not trapped in the targeted 420 acre 4-way structural closure. A possible explanation for this
    is that the dissolution of the underlying Devonian Prairie Salt, which created the structural closure
    in the overlying Mission Canyon Formation, must have occurred after oil migrated through the
    area. Since the structural closure or trap was not in place at the time of oil migration, the oil would
    have moved updip to the next trap, which is the present day Glenburn Oil Field. The Glenburn Oil
    Field structural closure is controlled by the Prairie Salt edge whereas the Matson structural closure
    was created by interior localized salt dissolution pods. Based on the Matson result the forward
    program will show a preference for structural closures that exist along the salt edge rather than
    those created by dissolution events further interior to the salt edge. Samson expects that the
    partners will now focus on developing its three structural closure prospects (Pubco, Deering, and
    one yet to be named) along the Prairie Salt edge in the South Prairie 3-D project.
