Oil and Gas Production Update

Consolidated:

Oil and gas production in 2Q2023 was 36,581 boepd, down by 6% compared to 2Q2022, due to lower production in Colombia, Chile and Brazil and flat production in Ecuador. Oil represented 92% and 90% of total reported production in 2Q2023 and 2Q2022, respectively.

Compared to 1Q2023, consolidated oil and gas production was flat, resulting from increased production in Colombia and Brazil that was offset by lower production in Chile and Ecuador.

Colombia:

Average net oil and gas production in Colombia decreased by 4% to 33,045 boepd in 2Q2023 compared to 34,253 boepd in 2Q2022, mainly resulting from lower production in the Llanos 34 and CPO-5 blocks, partially offset by higher production in the Platanillo block.

Oil and gas production in GeoPark's main blocks in Colombia:

Llanos 34 block net average production decreased by 3% to 24,888 bopd (or 55,307 bopd gross) in 2Q2023 compared to 2Q2022. Compared to 1Q2023, net average production increased by 1%
CPO-5 block net average production decreased by 12% to 5,342 bopd (or 17,807 bopd gross) in 2Q2023 compared to 2Q2022. As previously announced on March 8, April 11 and May 3, 2023, production in 1H2023 was below its production potential of 25,000-26,000 bopd gross due to shut-in production of the Indico 6 and Indico 7 wells. Compared to 1Q2023, net average production increased by 7% (1Q2023 production and operations were affected for 9 days by localized blockades)
Platanillo block average production increased by 12% to 2,456 bopd in 2Q2023 compared to 2Q2022. Compared to 1Q2023, net average production increased by 8%, mainly due to successful development drilling activities in 2023

Ecuador:

Average net oil production in Ecuador before the Government's share reached 634 bopd in 2Q2023, (approximately 448 bopd after the Government's share), flat compared to 2Q2022.

The Government's production share varies with oil prices and is approximately 30-40% considering an Oriente crude oil price of $70-100 per bbl.

Drilling activities currently underway in the Perico block targeting to drill two wells in 3Q2023 (one development well, Yin 2, and one exploration well, Yang 1).

Chile:

Average net production in Chile decreased 28% to 1,690 boepd in 2Q2023 compared to 2,358 boepd in 2Q2022, resulting from the natural decline of the fields, limited drilling activities and temporarily shut-in oil production due to ongoing commercial negotiations with the oil offtaker. The production mix was 96% natural gas (vs 78% in 2Q2022) and 4% light oil (vs 22% in 2Q2022).

Commercial negotiations with the oil offtaker are currently ongoing and the Company expects to resume shut-in production of approximately 400 bopd in 3Q2023.

Brazil:

Average net production in the Manati field in Brazil decreased 28% to 1,212 boepd in 2Q2023 compared to 1,695 boepd in 2Q2022 due to limited gas demand, the natural decline of the field and maintenance activities affecting production in the Manati platform for 10 days during June 2023 and that were normalized by the end of June 2023.

The production mix was 98% natural gas (vs 99% in 2Q2022) and 2% oil and condensate (vs 1% in 2Q2022).

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward-looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as ‘‘anticipate,'' ‘‘believe,'' ‘‘could,'' ‘‘expect,'' ‘‘should,'' ‘‘plan,'' ‘‘intend,'' ‘‘will,'' ‘‘estimate'' and ‘‘potential,'' among others.

Forward-looking statements that appear in a number of places in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the intent, belief, or current expectations, regarding various matters, including expected future financial performance, capital expenditures, expected adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow generation, expected production guidance, drilling activities, demand for oil and gas, oil and gas prices, our work program and investment guidelines, regulatory approvals, reserves, exploration resources, the discretionary share buyback program and shareholder returns. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to the management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various factors.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update them in light of new information or future developments or to release publicly any revisions to these statements in order to reflect later events or circumstances, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. For a discussion of the risks facing the Company which could affect whether these forward-looking statements are realized, see filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

¹ Indico 6 was shut in in December 2022 and Indico 7 was shut in in early January 2023.

² Free cash flow is used here as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, mandatory interest payments and cash taxes. 2023 cash taxes include GeoPark's preliminary estimates of the full impact of the new tax reform in Colombia, irrespective of the timing of its cash impact, expected in 2023 or early 2024. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the 2023 Adjusted EBITDA which is a forward-looking non-GAAP measure, because the Company cannot reliably predict certain of its necessary components, such as write-off of unsuccessful exploration efforts or impairment loss on non-financial assets, etc. Since free cash flow is calculated based on Adjusted EBITDA, for similar reasons, the Company does not provide a quantitative reconciliation of the 2023 free cash flow forecast. Adjusted EBITDA assumes a Brent to Vasconia differential averaging $4-5 per bbl from May to December 2023.

³ Based on GeoPark's average market capitalization from July 1 to July 12, 2023.

⁴ Unaudited.
