Company Overview

Trio Petroleum Corp. (“Corp”) is a California-based company that had its IPO on the New York Stock Exchange on April 18, 2023 (NYSE-American, ticker symbol “TPET”)

Our core asset is the South Salinas Project (“SSP”) in Monterey County, CA, with an estimated 2.12 billion barrels of OOIP and 1.18 trillion cubic feet of OGIP under our leasehold (these are P10, “High”, estimates)

“Presidents” and “Humpback” are large prospects and each has a discovery well

Presidents Prospect and the giant Cat Canyon West Field (EUR 100 MMBO) are direct analogues with respect to size of structure, depth, oil gravity (~20° API gravity oil) and Monterey reservoir facies

Trio, immediately after its IPO, drilled the HV-1 confirmation/discovery well at the Presidents Oilfield, which currently (July-August, 2023) is being production tested, with initial test rates as high as 125 BOPD (see press releases regarding HV-1).

Our core asset and key members of our management team come through Trio Petroleum LLC, located in Bakersfield, CA, which since its formation in 1983 has been a well-respected Operator and exploration and production company

Our Vice Chairman, Frank Ingriselli, is currently President of Indonesia Energy Corp. and was President of Texaco International: Trio Petroleum Corp is Frank’s 4th energy-company IPO on the NYSE

Our Chairman, Stan Eschner, was Domestic & International VP at Oxy where he participated in the exploration and exploitation of ~ 50 oil and gas fields

We plan to acquire additional assets and to grow a profitable exploration and production company
