Delhi Field Update

The Company started the twelve-well infill drilling program in the Delhi field in late March as scheduled. We have drilled two wells and spudded a third in this twelve-well program that is planned to be completed by late July 2018. The Company also began construction of flowlines and facilities and expects to have the first wells online by the end of May 2018. This infill program targets productive oil zones in the developed area of the field that the Company believes are not being swept effectively by the current CO2 flood. This infill program is expected to both add production and increase ultimate recoveries above the current proved producing oil reserves.

As previously disclosed, the Delhi field had two weather-related disruptions to operations in January from unusually cold temperatures in the field. The Company lost approximately seven days of oil production and over 25 days of natural gas liquid ("NGL") production in January. However, production in February and March returned to normal levels of approximately 7,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and 1,100 barrels of NGL's per day. The Company's net share of production for the quarter was 1,685 BOPD and 199 barrels of NGL's per day.

Evolution's net realized oil pricing in the quarter improved dramatically to $63.56 per barrel from $57.30 per barrel in the prior quarter. This was based on an average WTI price of $62.89 per barrel for the quarter. The Company has seen oil prices continue to strengthen in April. Net NGL pricing averaged approximately 54% of WTI oil prices.
