ARCTIC HUNTER HAS BEEN ADVISED BY TEMBLOR THAT INTERNATIONAL
RESERVOIR TECHNOLOGIES INC., OF LAKEWOOD, COLORADO HAS COMPLETED
THEIR OIL & GAS PRODUCTION REPORT TO MAXIMIZE PRODUCTION AT THE WITTER
FIELD, CALIFORNIA
____________________________________________________________________________________
VANCOUVER, BC - Arctic Hunter Energy Inc. (TSXV: AHU) (“Arctic Hunter ”) or t he
“Company”) announces that the Company has been notified by Temblor Petro leum that International
Reservoir Technologies Inc. (IRT), of Lakewood, Colorado has completed its detailed report on resource
modeling and production strategies for the newly drilled wells and the newly constructed Witter oil &
gas facility and pipeline . International Reservoir Technologies has designed and recommended a
pressure maintenance program that when implemented will maximize the recovery of both oil and gas
simultaneously maximizing the potential of the reservoir. Temblor is now preparing documentation for
submission to the State of California to obtain the required permits for this pressure maintenance
program and will confirm when permit approval has been received by the State.
WITTER FIELD OIL & GAS DISCOVERY / FACILITY AND PIPELINE
The Witter Field Oil & Gas Facility and pipeline is now completed, fully automated, tied in and now
fully operational. The facility includes two 2,200 barrel oil tanks with a production capac ity of up to
2,000 barrels a day, a fully operational gas pipeline, and a natural gas processing facility. The Company
is currently shipping premium light sweet crude oil with a 38°API combined with high quality gas to the
local California markets and receiving a cash premium for the oil. The high BTU content of the Witter
field gas (1265 BTU) required the construction of a new state of the art gas separation processing
facility to remove natural gas liquids and reduce the BTU content of the gas from 1280 to 1080 for
integration and input into California’s Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) gas system. This gas processing
facility is located 7 miles from the Witter field discovery at the Helm Station.”
The Temblor/Witter Field project is situated in the San Joa quin Valley, in Central California and was
drilled and discovered by Temblor Petroleum and its working interest partners in 2015. Since its
discovery Temblor and its partners have invested significant capital in developing a fully completed
production fac ility and gas pipeline with liquid processing facilities. The Witter Field project is now
fully commissioned and has begun testing commercial oil & gas production. Development and
expansion of the discovery field is expected to continue for many years.

THE “TORRI” – OIL & GAS TERM OVERRIDING ROYALTY INTEREST
The TORRI is a non -operating overriding royalty interest that does not bear production expenses and is
created out of and burdening leasehold working interest in the Witter Field Leases. The TO RRI has a
limited term which commences at the effective time and automatically terminates and ends on that date
when the purchaser has received the purchaser’s proportionate share of oil and gas produced from the
Leases attributable to a portion of Temblor ’s working interest therein. The transaction has no up- front
capital requirements and the production cash flow is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings
upon the effective date.
The Arctic Hun ter light Oil & Gas transaction (see Company news rel ease dated September 18, 2018),
“The Torri” represents the Company’s initial diversification into the United States and the California oil
and gas resource sector by acquiring and securing monthly light oil production revenue and allowing the
Company to a ccess advanced oil exploration and drilling and revenue opportunities. This strategic
acquisition of additional revenue producing resource assets will also allow the Company to access a
wide portfolio of oil exploration opportunities situated in this oil r egion. The Temblor/Witter Field Oil
project will also help to compliment the Company’s existing heavy oil production and cash flow, in
Alberta and Saskatchewan and provides the Company with reputable American working interest
partners seasoned in light oil & gas production, which will allow the Company access to future
expansion opportunities in the oil and natural gas resource sector in this region of central California.
