          Genel Energy plc 
 
          Taq Taq PSC reserves update 
 
         Genel Energy ('Genel' or 'the Company') announces that McDaniel and 
 Associates ('McDaniel') has completed the competent person's report ('CPR') 
             relating to the oil reserves at Taq Taq as at 31 December 2018. 
 
       Field performance in 2018, and notably the success of the TT-29w well 
 drilled on the northern flank of the field, has led to an upwards technical 
     revision of reserves, resulting in a 62% reserves replacement at the 1P 
                    level. 
 
   This revision does not take into account the recent positive results from 
  the TT-32 well, which completed in 2019 and is currently adding over 3,000 
                    bopd to field production. 
 
Drilling in 2019 is targeting opportunities on the flanks of the field, with 
  the TT-20z well nearing completion and three others then to follow. Should 
the wells match the performance of TT-29w and TT-32, Taq Taq could deliver a 
  significant year-on-year production increase, with room for further growth 
                    in 2020.
