Operations Update - Completion of Gilbreath #48 Workover

Mayan (AIM: MYN), the AIM listed oil and gas company, is pleased to announce that the workover of the Gilbreath #48 well at Forest Hill Field, Wood County, Texas ("Forest Hill") has been successfully completed. Gilbreath #48 is the sixth well completed as part of the Company's ongoing nine well workover programme, which includes eight wells at Forest Hill and the Morris #1 at the Stockdale Field, Wilson County, Texas ("Stockdale").

· Following the successful workover, the Gilbreath #48 produced nine barrels of oil into the rig tank over a six-hour period prior to being shut in due to lack of additional storage on location 

o Initial production over the six hour period in line with 35-50 bopd per well target 

· As with the Gilbreath #19 and #15 wells, initial production at Gilbreath #48 has not been optimised with any other treatments at the Company's disposal

· The Gilbreath #48 will be tied into the production facility and tank battery this week allowing for the well to be again turned to production

· The Company expects to run the Roke Quad Neutron log on both the Amason #1 and the Collin well to further evaluate oil shows uphole from the formations targeted in the initial workover of those two wells

· The Company intends to start reporting quarterly KPI's including number of wells, production and sales by field starting at the end of March 2018

Eddie Gonzalez, Managing Director, said: "With the Gilbreath #48 being completed this week Mayan continues to gain strength and momentum as we push hard toward our initial 300-500 barrel production goal and positive operating cash flow. Given the consistently positive production response out of the wells at Forest Hill, our confidence in reaching the production goal remains solid. I could not be happier with where we are as a Company, with the success we are enjoying in Texas and the progress at Deloro, specifically the Asphalt Ridge Project in Utah which is on course to commence production at an initial rate of 1,000bopd later in Q1. With this in mind, 2018 is proving to be a great year for Mayan."
