- Indonesia
- At the East Jabung PSC, the AYU-1X exploration well at the Anggun prospect is drilling pursuant to the terms of the 2015 farm-out agreement whereby the farminee funds the first USD$10 million towards the first exploration well and a contingent commitment to fund the first USD$5 million towards an appraisal well, if justified. The total estimated dry hole cost of the AYU-1X well for location and access, drilling to total depth and post total depth evaluation is estimated at USD$12.6 million, with USD$1.2 million net to Pan Orient. If warranted, testing of the AYU-1X well is expected to take an additional 16 days with an estimated cost of US$2.1 million, with USD$1.0 million net to Pan Orient.
- The East Jabung PSC has a firm well commitment of two exploration wells to be drilled prior to the expiry of the first six year exploration phase November 21, 2017 (excluding any extension that may be granted). The AYU-1X exploration well is the first commitment well. Pan Orient and the operator will determine the extent and timing of further exploration activity based on the results of the AYU-1X well, expected costs, required timing and Government of Indonesia approvals.
- Sawn Lake Alberta Heavy Oil (Operated by Andora, in which Pan Orient has a 71.8% ownership)
- Andora is finalizing the detailed engineering for its proprietary Thermal System and Process for Producing Steam from Oilfield Produced Water ("Produced Water Boiler").
- The drilling of one core well has been completed in August as required to submit the application for continuation of the mineral rights of one of the oil sands leases.
- An application for a potential expansion at the demonstration project site to 3,200 BOPD was submitted in April 2016 and Andora is awaiting approval of the application. It is expected that a reactivation of the demonstration project facility and wellpair would be part of a potential commercial expansion to 3,200 BOPD. The expansion application requests the drilling of up to seven additional SAGD wellpairs which are tied into the existing demonstration project facility. The facility would be expanded to generate the additional necessary steam, and it is anticipated that additional steam generation would include the test installation of Andora's proprietary Produced Water Boiler. An expansion is dependent on regulatory approval, completion of detailed engineering and a higher commodity price environment to support project economics and financing.

| East Jabung PSC, Onshore Sumatra Indonesia (Pan Orient 49% ownership & Non Operator) | ||
| It is anticipated that the AYU-1X exploration well will reach total depth at approximately the end of August. The results of the AYU-1X exploration well will have a significant impact on Pan Orient's future strategy. | ||

| Concession L53 Onshore (Pan Orient Energy (Siam) Ltd., in which Pan Orient has 50.01% ownership) | ||
| Pan Orient is conducting a workover program at Concession L53 that will continue throughout the remainder of the year. | ||
| The L53AC-C1 exploration well is expected to be drilled in October 2017 and will be funded by working capital in Pan Orient Energy (Siam) Ltd. In the event the L53AC-C1 exploration well is successful, the drilling pad will have one additional slot from which an appraisal well would likely be drilled. | ||
| CANADA | ||
| Sawn Lake (Operated by Andora, in which Pan Orient has a 71.8% ownership) | ||
| Pan Orient continues to move forward with long lead time items towards potential future development at Sawn Lake. It is recognized that the need for stable crude oil prices, and specifically higher Western Canada Select reference prices, will have a significant impact on any decision regarding the timing and extent of future development. | ||
| Corporate | ||
| Pan Orient continues to maintain a strong cash balance denominated mainly in United States dollar deposits that will allow the Company to conduct key exploration and development activities and ensure financial flexibility. The Company constantly reviews its exploration and development asset portfolio in Indonesia, Thailand and Canada with the aim of maximizing corporate value and achieving the best allocation of resources. Potential corporate activities range from divestment of existing assets to the ongoing screening of new venture and corporate opportunities. | ||
