Serinus Energy Inc.: Romania - Moftinu-1001 Well Tests 7.4 MMcf/d

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - April 2, 2015) - Serinus Energy Inc. ("Serinus", "SEN" or the "Company") (TSX:SEN) (WARSAW:SEN), is pleased to report that production testing on the Moftinu-1001 well has been completed and the maximum flow rate achieved was 7.4 MMcf/d through an 40/64 inch choke at a flowing wellhead pressure of 813 psi. Only trace amounts of water and 19 bbl/d of condensate were produced. The flow test was conducted over approximately 48 hours, after which it was shut in for a pressure build up test.

Moftinu-1001 was drilled in November/December of 2014 to test the hydrocarbon potential of an anomaly defined by 3D seismic. The well encountered three Pliocene/Miocene aged sands with an aggregate potential net pay of 17 metres and porosity ranging between 24% and 36% indicated by the wireline logs. It is located in the Satu Mare Concession ("Satu Mare"), a 765,000 acre exploration block in northwest Romania which is 60% owned and operated by Winstar Satu Mare SRL, a wholly owned subsidiary of Serinus.

Pending evaluation of the pressure build up test, the Company has begun evaluating its alternatives to bring this new discovery on production. This will require an application to the National Agency for Mineral Resources for a Production Concession to be carved out of Satu Mare. That application will include, among other things, a proposed development plan which may involve the building of new plant facility at Moftinu or utilizing existing surface infrastructure.

Jock Graham, the Chief Operating Officer of Serinus said "We are extremely pleased with the test results on Moftinu-1001. Although we are still awaiting confirmation from the pressure data analysis, we believe this is a significant step towards a new development opportunity for Serinus, similar to the Company's operations in Ukraine. In particular the 260 km² of 3D seismic data shows significant exploration upside in a license area 8 times larger than the area under license in Ukraine."

Cautionary Statement:

BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

Test results are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. The test data contained herein is considered preliminary until full pressure transient analysis is complete.
