Obsidian Energy Announces Strong 2025 Reserves Results

  • Reserve replacement of 118 percent, 185 percent and 235 percent of 2025 production (adjusted for dispositions) on a proved developed producing (“PDP“), proved (“1P“), and proved plus probable(“2P“) reserves basis

  • Added locations in the Willesden Green (Belly River) in both Crimson and Open Creek based on 2025 success

  • Initial waterflood reserve bookings from recent pilots at Peace River in the Clearwater

Calgary, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – February 5, 2026) – OBSIDIAN ENERGY LTD. (TSX: OBE) (NYSE American: OBE) (“Obsidian Energy“, the “Company“, “we“, “us” or “our“) is pleased to announce the results of our independent reserves evaluation for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Reserve Report“) prepared by GLJ Ltd. (“GLJ“).

OBE Announces Strong 2025 Reserves Results

“Our reserves report reflects what was a transformational year at the Company given the disposition of our Pembina asset in April 2025,” commented Stephen Loukas, Obsidian Energy’s President and CEO. “However, organic activity once again more than replaced production across all reserve categories despite moderating our capital program in the second half of the year in response to lower commodity prices. The Pembina disposition had a material impact on our results as it represented approximately 35 percent of the Company’s reserve volumes but importantly reduced corporate decommissioning liabilities by over half and significantly improved our balance sheet strength and liquidity position. Lastly, we are pleased with both the waterflood additions that were added in Peace River, and recognition of our emerging Belly River play in Willesden Green.”

HIGHLIGHTS

Our 2025 capital program consisted of further development and delineation in both Peace River and Willesden Green. In the first half of the year, we focused on primary development as well as exploration in Peace River, specifically in Harmon Valley South (“HVS“) and Dawson. Our program in the second half of the year was balanced between heavy and light oil assets with continued development in Peace River, particularly in the Clearwater, in addition to advancing waterflood initiatives with one pilot in Dawson (Clearwater) and another in HVS (Bluesky). In Willesden Green, we were active in Open Creek, including drilling initial wells in the emerging Belly River formation with strong results.

Key highlights within the 2025 Reserve Report are as follows:

  • Solid reserve replacement with 118 percent on a PDP reserves basis, 185 percent on a 1P reserves basis and 235 percent on a 2P reserves basis, based on 2025 production (adjusted for dispositions) and driven by the impact of drilling infill wells and field extensions in both Peace River and Willesden Green.

  • Peace River reserves continued to increase and benefitted from waterflood projects, which increased reserves on a 2P basis by 3.5 million boe, particularly in Dawson. The Company is anticipating future additions as our waterflood initiatives expand.

  • Our successful Belly River program in Willesden Green added 12 locations in 2025 and 5.6 million boe where previously minimal locations were booked. As the program scope expands in the area, the Company expects to continue to add future locations to our reserves book.

  • Reserves before-tax net present value discounted at 10 percent (“NPV10“) were impacted by the Pembina disposition and a lower oil price forecast. The reduction in value on a per share basis was mitigated by strong reserve additions and our share buyback program.

    • PDP (1): $961 million

      • Including dispositions, a 41 percent decrease (35 percent decrease on a per share basis).

      • Excluding dispositions, a 10 percent decrease (1 percent decrease on a per share basis).

      • Excluding dispositions and economic factors, an 8 percent increase (18 percent increase on a per share basis)

    • 1P (1): $1,446 million

      • Including dispositions, a 36 percent decrease (30 percent decrease on a per share basis).

      • Excluding dispositions, a 6 percent decrease (3 percent increase on a per share basis).

      • Excluding dispositions and economic factors, a 14 percent increase (25 percent increase on a per share basis)

    • 2P (1): $2,103 million

      • Including dispositions, a 32 percent decrease (26 percent decrease on a per share basis).

      • Excluding dispositions, a 3 percent decrease (6 percent increase on a per share basis).

      • Excluding disposition and economic factors, a 16 percent increase (27 percent increase on a per share basis)

  • Future Development Capital (“FDC“) is moderated in both the 1P and 2P reserve categories to reflect the current commodity price environment, the Pembina disposition and anticipated capital spending levels. FDC generates a five-year program of approximately $243 million per year on a 2P reserve basis.

  • Our total undeveloped 2P reserve locations (excluding the impact of the Pembina disposition) increased by 39 net locations to 357 total net locations booked, with 22 net new locations in Willesden Green and 20 net new location in Peace River offset by a reduction of 3 net locations in Viking. Below is a breakdown of locations by area.

    • 130 net locations in Willesden Green/PCU #11;

      • (Cardium 113 locations, Belly River 14 locations, Manville 3 locations)

    • 103 net locations in the Peace River (Clearwater);

    • 77 net locations in the Peace River (Bluesky); and

    • 47 net locations in the Viking.

  • Reserve life index (“RLI“) continues to be stable with approximately 6.0, 10.1 and 13.3 years on a PDP, 1P, and 2P reserves basis.

  • Finding & Development (“F&D“) costs including changes in FDC were $25.70/boe for PDP, $19.44/boe for 1P and $20.68/boe for 2P. Finding, Development and Acquisition (“FD&A“) costs including changes in FDC were ($0.87)/boe for PDP, $11.71/boe for 1P and $9.09 /boe for 2P. FD&A costs are lower than F&D costs (and negative for PDP) primarily due to the removal of FDC associated with the Pembina disposition.

  • Lower oil prices impacted our expected 2025 operating netback of $27.48/boe. As a result, our 2025 recycle ratios for F&D (including changes in FDC) were 1.1x for PDP, 1.4x for 1P and 1.3x for 2P.

  • Corporate decline rate on a PDP basis was relatively unchanged year-over-year at 23 percent in 2025 compared to 22 percent in 2024.

(1) Includes active ARO only. Pembina disposition reduced Obsidian Energy’s ARO by $390 million, including $189 million of inactive ARO on an undiscounted, uninflated basis.

SUMMARY OF 2025 RESERVES

GLJ conducted an independent reserves evaluation of 100 percent of our reserves effective December 31, 2025, using a three-consultant average (“IC3“) price deck of forecast commodity prices and assumptions at December 31, 2025. This evaluation was prepared in accordance with definitions, standards, and procedures set out in the Canadian Oil and gas Evaluation Handbook and National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (“NI 51-101“). Reserves included below are company share gross reserves which are the Company’s total working interest reserves before the deduction of any royalties and excluding any royalty interests payable to the Company. The numbers in the tables below may not add due to rounding.

ADDITIONAL READER ADVISORIES

OIL AND GAS INFORMATION ADVISORY

Barrels of oil equivalent (“boe“) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis is misleading as an indication of value.

In addition, this news release contains a number of oil and gas metrics, including “F&D costs”, “FD&A costs”, “Operating netback”, “Recycle Ratio” and “RLI” which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Such metrics are commonly used in the oil and gas industry and have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company’s performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods.

F&D costs are the sum of capital expenditures incurred in the period, plus the change in estimated future development capital for the reserves category, all divided by the change in reserves during the period for the reserve category. F&D costs exclude the impact of acquisitions and divestitures.

FD&A costs are the sum of capital expenditures incurred in the period for the reserves category and including the impact of acquisition and disposition activity, all divided by the change in reserves during the period for the reserve category.

Operating netback is the per unit of production amount of revenue less royalties, net operating expenses and transportation expenses.

Production (adjusted for dispositions) is production for the year less production associated with properties sold up to the closing date of the disposition.

Recycle Ratio is calculated by dividing the operating netback by the F&D costs for the year. The recycle ratio compares netback from existing reserves to the cost of finding new reserves and may not accurately indicate the investment success unless the replacement reserves are of equivalent quality as the produced reserves.

RLI is calculated as total Company gross reserves divided by GLJ’s forecasted 2025 production for the associated reserve category.

Under NI 51-101, 1P reserves estimates are defined as having a high degree of certainty to be recoverable with a targeted 90 percent probability in aggregate that actual reserves recovered over time will equal or exceed proved reserve estimates. For 2P reserves under NI 51-101, the targeted probability is an equal (50 percent) likelihood that the actual reserves to be recovered will be greater or less than the proved plus probable reserve estimate. The reserve estimates set forth above are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided herein.
