This presentation includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that VAALCO

expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. These statements include expected capital expenditures, future

drilling plans, objectives and operations, prospect evaluations, negotiations and relations with governments and third parties, reserve growth, estimated

revenues and losses, and projected costs, timing and amount of future production. These statements are based on assumptions made by VAALCO based on its

experience perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances.

Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond VAALCO's control. These risks include, but are not

limited to, inflation, general economic conditions, oil and gas price volatility, the VAALCO's success in discovering, developing and producing reserves, lack of

availability drilling equipment and services, availability of and capital, environmental risks, drilling risks, foreign operational risks, regulatory changes, the

uncertainty inherent in estimating reserves and in projecting future rates of production, cash flow and access to capital, the timing of development expenditures,

and other risks. Additional information on risks and uncertainties that could affect our business prospects and performance are provided in the most recent

reports of VAALCO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements are based on VAALCO’s current expectations and

assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. VAALCO cautions you that

forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the

forward-looking statements. VAALCO disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new

information, future events, or otherwise.

The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or

conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions. VAALCO uses the terms “estimated

ultimate recovery,” “EUR,” “probable,” “3P,” “possible,” and “non-proven” reserves, reserve “potential” or “upside,” “unrisked potential” or other descriptions of

volumes of reserves potentially recoverable through additional drilling or recovery techniques that are not classified as proved reserves, may not have been

calculated as defined by SEC regulations and that the SEC’s guidelines may prohibit us from including in any future filings with the SEC. These estimates are by

their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized by the

company. VAALCO believes these estimates are reasonable, but such estimates have not been reviewed by independent engineers. Estimates may change

significantly as development provides additional data, and actual quantities that are ultimately recovered may differ substantially from prior estimates. Production

forecasts are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the outcome of future drilling activity.

Although VAALCO believes the forecasts are reasonable, VAALCO can give no assurance they will prove to have been correct. They can be affected by

inaccurate assumptions and data or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties.

Market and industry data and forecasts used in this presentation have been obtained from independent industry sources as well as from research reports

prepared for other purposes. Although VAALCO believes these third-party sources to be reliable, VAALCO has not independently verified the data obtained from

these sources and VAALCO cannot assure you of the accuracy or completeness of the data. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from

these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward looking statements in this presentation.
