Houston - Surge Energy US Holdings Company ('Surge Energy' or the 'Company') announces the Company achieved record low flare gas performance in 2021 and continued industry leadership in water management.

In 2021, the Company reduced its total flared gas percentage by approximately 60% compared to 2020. Flared gas percentage is the gross operated flared gas volumes as a percentage of total gross operated gas produced. The Company is committed to reducing GHG emissions by eliminating internally controlled flaring which the Company delivered in 2021 as evidenced by a 0.0 internally controlled flaring intensity metric. Internally controlled flaring intensity measures internally controlled flaring gas volumes relative to gross oil production barrels.

Surge Energy continues to be a leader in water management. The Company utilizes recycled produced water in completion operations, minimizing the need for fresh water. Over 80 million total barrels of freshwater have been conserved since the inception of the Company's water recycling program in 2017. From mid-2018 through 2020, nearly all completions used recycled produced water. For the past three years, the Company's water intensity was 0.4 or below, which was top quartile based on a 2021 industry comparison survey. Water intensity measures the volume of freshwater withdrawn from local sources for fracking operations relative to gross barrel of oil equivalent production.

'Surge is proud of our outstanding performance in GHG Emissions reduction and water management,' stated Chief Executive Officer Linhua Guan. 'We are committed to delivering continued strong ESG performance by incentivizing our entire organization by setting 45% of our variable compensation targets tied to sustainability performance metrics.'
