Sandnes, Norway 14 November 2024: Vår Energi ASA (OSE:VAR) confirms a commercial
oil and gas discovery in the Equinor operated Rhombi well in the Fram licence in
the North Sea. The preliminary estimate of shows gross recoverable resources of
between 13-28 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe).

The discovery was made in two different structural segments in Sognefjord and
Fensfjord formations with fair to very good reservoir characteristics. The
preliminary estimate of gross recoverable resources of the discovery are between
13 - 28 million barrels of oil equivalent. The licensees regard the discovery to
be commercially viable and will consider a tie-in to existing infrastructure.

Vår Energi's COO, Torger Rød, said:

"We congratulate Equinor for their safe and successful drilling operation, which
again proves the potential in the highly prolific Fram area. Its close proximity
to existing infrastructure provides further opportunities for a low emission and
cost-efficient development."

The Fram area has seen extensive exploration successes in recent years with
Echino South and Blasto being moved forward as the Fram South development
project, while Mulder and now Rhombi are lining up to provide future high value
production. In addition, Vår Energi will participate in six exploration wells in
the area over the next three years.

The license partners are Equinor Energy AS: 45 % (operator) , Vår Energi ASA: 40
%  and INPEX Idemitsu Norge AS: 15 %
