Brookside Energy Limited (Brookside or the
Company) is pleased to announce the successful spudding of the Bruins 2-11-1S-3W WXH1 well (Bruins Well).
The well is located within the Company's SWISH Play acreage in the Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma.
The Bruins Well marks the ninth well to be drilled by Brookside within the SWISH Play and follows the successful
completion of the Company’s four-well FMDP program late last year.

Subsequently, Kenai Rig 19 was moved onto the site, and rig-up and testing operations commenced.
Current Operations

Drilling to the surface casing point.
Running, cementing, and testing the surface casing.
Next Steps

Brookside’s Managing Director, David Prentice said:
"It is fantastic to be drilling again, and we are pleased that operations have started smoothly. Our team, contractors,
and the Kenai crew have all performed exceptionally well. The commencement of drilling is always an exciting time,
and we greatly appreciate the dedication and care shown by everyone involved—especially given the extreme cold
weather experienced over the last week or so. We look forward to providing further updates as drilling progresses."
