BW Energy: Substantial oil discovery made on the Bourdon prospect
Substantial oil discovery made on the Bourdon prospect
BW Energy is pleased to announce a substantial oil discovery with good reservoir quality on the Bourdon prospect in the Dussafu Licence offshore Gabon.
Evaluation of logging data and formation pressure measurements confirm approximately 34 metres of pay in an overall hydrocarbon column of 45 metres in the Gamba formation, making it the largest hydrocarbon column discovered to date in the Dussafu licence. The well was drilled by the Norve jack-up rig to a total depth of 4,135 metres.
The discovery will enable the Company to book additional reserves not included in its 2024 Statement of Reserves.
'The Bourdon appraisal well again confirms the significant resource potential of the Dussafu licence, which holds multiple additional prospects,' said Carl K. Arnet, CEO of BW Energy. 'We will now carefully review the drilling results, but initial data indicates the potential for establishing a new development cluster with a production facility following the MaBoMo blueprint. We are evaluating a second sidetrack to further appraise the discovery'.
Bourdon is located approximately 15 kilometres west of BW Adolo FPSO and 7.5 kilometres southeast of the MaBoMo facility.For further information, please contact:

ReconAfrica Announces C$10 Million Overnight Marketed Offering, Led by over C$4 Million in Lead Orders, Including Strategic Investment from BW Energy, to Drill Prospect I in Namibia with Rig Mobilization in June 2025
The Base Shelf Prospectus is accessible, and the Prospectus Supplement will be accessible within two business days, through SEDAR+ Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - June 4, 2025) - Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. (TSXV: RECO) (OTCQX: RECAF) (FSE: 0XD) (NSX: REC) (the "Company" or "ReconAfrica") announces that it has entered into an agreement with Research Capital Corporation as the lead underwriter and sole bookrunner, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters, including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Haywood Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Underwriters"), for an overnight marketed public offering of units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of C$0.50 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of C$10,000,000 (the "Offering"). In connection with the Offering, indications of lead orders have been received from BW Energy Limited ("BW Energy"), directors and management members of ReconAfrica, and certain other investors, expecting to purchase over C$4,000,000 of Units. BW Energy has agreed to a follow-on strategic equity investment in the Company of approximately C$2,000,000 under the Offering, reaffirming it's previously announced strategic partnership with ReconAfrica. BW Energy's additional investment represents approximately 20% of the Offering, increasing BW Energy's share ownership position in ReconAfrica from approximately 6.5% prior to the Offering to approximately 7.6% after the Offering. The Units purchased by BW Energy under the Offering will be subject to a six-month lock-up agreement. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company ("Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company ("Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.60 at any time up to 24 months from closing of the Offering. In addition, the Company will use commercial reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary approvals to list the Warrants on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The net proceeds from the Offering will be used for exploration activities, working capital and general corporate purposes. The primary exploration activity to be funded with net proceeds from the Offering will be the drilling of Prospect I, which has been named the Kavango West 1X well. Work on the access road and drill site is currently being completed while the Company awaits receipt of the remaining requisite permits. The rig move to the Kavango West 1X well drilling location is scheduled in late June, with drilling to begin thereafter. Brian Reinsborough, President and CEO of ReconAfrica stated: "We are excited to spud one of the Company's largest and most attractive prospects, Kavango West 1X. The results of the Naingopo exploration well announced in January 2025 increased our confidence in the potential for this well. Our teams remain very engaged with local communities and authorities to ensure a safe and efficient operation of this well." Carl K. Arnet, BW Energy CEO commented: "Our technical and operational teams at BW Energy are delighted to be participating in the high potential Kavango West 1X exploration well. BW Energy is well positioned in this strategically important energy region and further our position as a leader in Namibia's development towards energy independence. The data and insights gained through ReconAfrica's exploration campaign will further our understanding of the geology and petroleum system in Namibia and help de-risk planned exploration and development of our Kudu licence." Kavango West 1X (Prospect I) - High Potential Exploration well The Kavango West 1X exploration well will be the second test in the expansive Damara Fold Belt play. The prospect is a large fold identified on modern 2D seismic data which extends over 20 kilometers long by 5 kilometers wide, and is expected to penetrate a thick Otavi carbonate reservoir section, which is the primary target in the play. The Kavango West 1X well will be drilled to a planned total depth of approximately 3,800 metres (12,500 feet) and is targeting 346 million barrels of gross unrisked (30 million barrels of gross risked) prospective light/medium crude oil resources on a 100% working interest basis (312 million barrels(1,2) net unrisked (27 million barrels net risked) to ReconAfrica's 90% working interest as at the date of the NSAI report) or 1,839 billion cubic feet of gross unrisked (133 Bcf risked) prospective natural gas resources on 100% working interest basis (1,655 billion cubic feet(1,2) unrisked net (120 Bcf risked net) to ReconAfrica's 90% working interest as at the date of the NSAI report), based on the most recent prospective resources report prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. ("NSAI") as at December 31, 2024, filed on SEDAR+ at (the "NSAI Report")(1). Damara Fold Belt Play Across 11.5 Million Acres in Namibia and Angola The Damara fold belt trend is identified in the subsurface by a grid of 2D seismic data, and the Company has mapped 19 prospects and 4 leads on the Namibia side of the play. The Namibia area is estimated to hold 2.6 billion barrels(1,2) of unrisked prospective light/medium crude oil resources and 157 million barrels(1,2) of risked prospective light/medium crude oil resources from the Damara Fold Belt play prospects on PEL 73. (1) There is no certainty that any portion of the resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources. Prospective resources are those quantities of oil estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. Prospective resources are the arithmetic sum of multiple probability distributions. Unrisked prospective resources are estimates of the volumes that could reasonably be expected to be recovered in the event of the discovery and development of these prospects. (2) Not reflective of ReconAfrica's current working interest of 70% of PEL 73. Recently, the company has entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with National Agency for Petroleum, Gas and Biofuels of Angola (ANPG) for a joint exploration project in the Etosha-Okavango basin, located onshore in southeastern Angola. This agreement is a strategic addition to the company's asset portfolio, which creates an opportunity for early entry into onshore Angola at a low cost, with minimal work commitments. It complements ReconAfrica's activities in Namibia and highlights the potential of the Damara Fold Belt and Rift Basin by adding 5.2 million contiguous acres in Angola to the existing 6.3 million acres in Namibia in the Damara Fold Belt and Rift Basin exploration plays.

As of December 31, 2024 (and the effective date of the Resource Report, ReconAfrica owned a 90% working interest in PEL 73. As of the date hereof, ReconAfrica holds a 70% working interest in PEL 73 (with BW Energy Limited holding a 20% working interest and the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia holding a 10% carried participating interest). "Net" includes a 5% deduction for royalties. (2) ReconAfrica engaged Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. ("NSAI"), an independent qualified reserves evaluator, to provide an updated prospective resource report dated March 26, 2025 (with an effective date of December 31, 2024) relating to the Company's prospective resources (the "Resource Report"). The Resource Report focused solely on the Company's interest in certain prospects and leads located in the Damara Fold and Thrust Belt (Damara) play area and the Karoo Rift play area of PEL 73. The preparation date of the Updated Report is January 1, 2025. Prospective resources are the arithmetic sum of multiple probability distributions. See "Disclosure of Oil and Gas Information" for further information. (3) There is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be discovered. If they are discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to develop and produce any portion of the prospective resources. Additional Details on the Offering The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), exercisable, in whole or in part, in the sole discretion of the Underwriters, to purchase up to an additional number of Units, and/or the components thereof, that in aggregate would be equal to 15% of the total number of Units to be issued under the Offering, to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes, exercisable at any time and from time to time up to 30 days following the closing of the Offering. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about the week of June 16, 2025 (the "Closing"), or such other earlier or later date as the Underwriters may determine.

Disclosure of Oil and Gas Information: The Resource Report and the prospective resource estimates contained therein and in this press release were prepared by NSAI, an independent qualified reserves evaluator. The Resource Report was prepared in accordance with the definitions and guidelines of the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook maintained by the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (Calgary Chapter) and National Instrument 51-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities. Prospective resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by applying future development projects. Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. Prospective resources are further categorized according to the level of certainty associated with recoverable estimates assuming their discovery and development and may be subclassified based on project maturity. The prospective resources included in Resource Report and in this press release should not be construed as reserves or contingent resources; they represent exploration opportunities and quantify the development potential in the event a petroleum discovery is made. A geologic risk assessment was performed for these prospects and leads, as discussed in the Form 51-101F1 - Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information ("Form 51-101F") dated April 29, 2025 and effective as of December 31, 2024, available under the Company's profile at The Resource Report is also available under the Company's profile at The Resource Report does not include economic analysis for these prospects and leads. Based on analogous field developments, it appears that, assuming a discovery is made, the unrisked best estimate prospective resources in the Resource Report have a reasonable chance of being economically viable. There is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be discovered. If they are discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to develop and produce any portion of the prospective resources. For additional information concerning the risks and the level of uncertainty associated with recovery of the prospective resources detailed herein and in the Resource Report, the significant positive and negative factors relevant to the prospective resources estimates detailed herein and in the Resource Report and a description of the project to which the prospective resources estimates detailed herein and in the Resource Report applies are contained within the Form 51-101F1. The prospective resources shown in herein and in the Resource Report have been estimated using probabilistic methods and are dependent on a petroleum discovery being made. If a discovery is made and development is undertaken, the probability that the recoverable volumes will equal or exceed the unrisked estimated amounts is 90 percent for the low estimate, 50 percent for the best estimate, and 10 percent for the high estimate. Low estimate and high estimate prospective resources have not been included in the Resource Report. For the purposes of the Resource Report, the volumes and parameters associated with the best estimate scenario of prospective resources are referred to as 2U. The 2U prospective resources have been aggregated beyond the prospect and lead level by arithmetic summation; therefore, these totals do not include the portfolio effect that might result from statistical aggregation. Statistical principles indicate that the arithmetic sums of multiple estimates may be misleading as to the volumes that may actually be recovered. **NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES** To view the source version of this press release, please visit Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data

Top 10 Most Efficient Hybrid Cars in 2025: Best Fuel-Saving Picks
Hybrids are becoming increasingly popular in the current automotive landscape, and it isn't hard to see why. They are the middle ground between reliable gas-power and new, cost-effective electric power. Efficiency is their main party trick, though, and there are plenty of options guaranteed to save you money. Compared to their gas-only siblings, hybrids are much lighter on fuel in most cases. Utilizing electric motors means that the gasoline engine under the hood doesn't have to work as hard. This translates into you having to spend much less money when it comes to filling up the gas tank. We've found the ten hybrid cars that are more efficient than all of their rivals. Based on EPA estimates, these cars are able to sip fuel whether you're on the highway or driving through the city. We explore what helps them stand out in the hyper-competitive hybrid segment and which individual trims are lightest on fuel. In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from various manufacturer websites and other authoritative sources, and TopSpeed. Models are ranked by their estimated combined MPG, from least to most efficient. The first entry on this list is not one that you'd likely suspect. BMW's sporting coupe is big and quick, yet somehow manages to keep fuel consumption low. It is exceptionally stylish and features an interior that is both plush and also styled with exciting sporty elements. It really is good value for money. While the inline-six that you'd find in the M440i is certainly attractive, its higher price tag is not. The four-cylinder engine is also impressively light on fuel thanks to its 48-volt hybrid system. Despite being frugal, the 430i is still capable of incredibly spirited driving and definitely offers a ton of thrills. While Toyota usually leaves luxury to Lexus, the brand recently put out a sedan that is just as plush. The Crown features polarizing styling, with raised suspension putting it somewhere in between a traditional sedan and a crossover. In any case, this hybrid-only model is super comfortable. The Crown comes with two different hybrid powertrains, one featuring a turbocharged engine and the other naturally aspirated. The latter is the more efficient model, with the more powerful Platinum trim only getting up to 30 miles per gallon combined. The ES isn't like other mid-size luxury sedans. While its rivals focus on a balance between comfort and driving verve, the ES hybrid instead forgets performance and focuses purely on luxury. What this does mean, though, is that the sedan starts thousands of dollars cheaper than other options. The ES hybrid is front-wheel drive only, which is one of the many signs that point towards it being a fairly tame sedan. Its 215 horsepower will be enough for most, but it doesn't get you anywhere particularly quickly. However, it is easily the most fuel efficient luxury sedan on the market right now. The Sonata is Hyundai's mid-size family sedan, and it follows the same ideology as the rest of the Korean brand's lineup, offering value above all else. It looks fantastic and comes packed with tons of features that more than justify its price tag, and it utilizes a good mix of traditional controls and modern technology. A single electric motor pairs with the humble four-cylinder engine that sits under the hood of the Sonata hybrid. While speed and cornering prowess are not exactly the name of the game with this sedan, its efficiency means its a great family car, especially if you frequently commute long distances on the highway. If you're looking for simple transportation to get you from A to B without any fuss, the Corolla is likely already on your radar. The hybrid model only furthers this cause, promising to save you money on your fuel bill. The only downside is that you can only get the hybrid in sedan form. The Corolla Hybrid oozes simplicity, from a functional interior to a humble powertrain. It isn't quick by any means, taking nine seconds to go from zero to 60 miles per hour, but it is fairly comfortable. All-wheel drive is on offer, but these models only manage 44 miles per gallon combined. It really is hard to find anything negative to say about Honda's mid-size family sedan. The Accord has consistently been one of the best value options in its segment, thanks to a fantastic interior package and strong performance. It is also very spacious on the inside, whether you're sat in the front or the back. The hybrid Accord strikes an impressive balance between frugality and fun. Its chassis is taught and it handles brilliantly, offering tons of fun on back roads. It is also quicker than most of the other cars on this list, able to shoot to 60 miles per hour in 6.7 seconds. We just wish you could still get one with a manual. Sitting just above its mid-sized sibling, the brand-new Honda Civic hybrid is one of the most efficient cars on the market. It has been added to the lineup for the 2025 model year, and we think many buyers will make the shift from the gas-only models. It is stylish, packed with features, and fun to drive. Whether you drive mostly in the city, commute on the highway, or undertake a combination of the two, the Civic hybrid delivers consistent efficiency. The hybrid Civic is also plenty quick, capable of getting to 60 miles per hour from a standstill in 6.2 seconds, and its chassis is tuned to be playful. For the 2025 model year, Toyota made a fairly dramatic change to the Camry, making it a hybrid-only model. While this means that the V-6 from the TRD model is no longer available, all other models are now more powerful, quicker, and much lighter on fuel. It is also much more comfortable on the inside than before. Front-wheel drive is standard on the 2025 Camry, and models with this setup pair the inline-four with two electric motors. All-wheel drive models add a third motor and increase output to 232 horsepower. The all-wheel drive model is slightly less efficient, but still manages 50 miles per gallon combined. The Hyundai Elantra is an impressively handsome compact sedan, with brilliant styling inside and out. Like other Hyundai's, every model comes with a very generous feature package, making it a great value-for-money option, especially because its starting price is so low. The base Elantra Hybrid Blue model is the most efficient model, with the better-equipped Sport and Limited models featuring larger wheels that drop combined fuel economy down to 50 miles per gallon. The Elantra Hybrid is especially efficient on the highway, saving you more money if you regularly undertake longer trips. It isn't surprising at all that the Toyota Prius takes the top spot when it comes to fuel efficiency. Ever since the Prius hit American roads back in 2000, it has been the sensible choice. However, the most modern iteration is better looking, more comfortable, and more entertaining to drive than you'd expect. The LE and Nightshade trims of the 2025 Prius are the most efficient models, especially when you keep them front-wheel drive. The XLE and Limited models decrease overall efficiency, as does opting for all-wheel drive. However, even the least efficient Prius manages 49 miles per gallon combined.
