NEWBURY PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kolibri Global Energy Inc.

Wolf Regener, President, and CEO, commented. “Completion operations have started this morning and are expected to be finished within the next two weeks.

We look forward to bringing on additional new production with unhedged current pricing of over $100 per barrel.

“The Barnes 7-3H well is still producing at a much higher rate than any of our previous wells and over the last five days has continued to average over 1,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day.”

Forward-looking information is based on plans and estimates of management and interpretations of data by the Company's technical team at the date the data is provided and is subject to several factors and assumptions of management, including that that indications of early results are reasonably accurate predictors of the prospectiveness of the shale intervals, that required regulatory approvals will be available when required, that no unforeseen delays, unexpected geological or other effects, including flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions, equipment failures, permitting delays or labor or contract disputes are encountered, that the necessary labor and equipment will be obtained, that the development plans of the Company and its co-venturers will not change, that the offset operator’s operations will proceed as expected by management, that the demand for oil and gas will be sustained, that the price of oil will be sustained or increase, that the Company will continue to be able to access sufficient capital through financings, farm-ins or other participation arrangements to maintain its projects, and that global economic conditions will not deteriorate in a manner that has an adverse impact on the Company's business, its ability to advance its business strategy and the industry as a whole.
