KOLIBRIGLOBAL ENERGY INC. ANNOUNCES OPERATIONS UPDATE

ThousandOaks, CALIFORNIA, August 7, 2025 – Kolibri Global Energy Inc. (the “Company” or “Kolibri”)(TSX: KEI, NASDAQ: KGEI) is pleased to provide an operations update on its latest wells in its Tishomingo field in Oklahoma.

LOVINAWELLS

TheLovina 9-16-1H, Lovina 9-16-2H, Lovina 9-16-3H, and Lovina 9-16-4H wells (all 100% working interest) have been successfully fracturestimulated and have been flowing back the fracture stimulation fluid through a conservative controlled flowback, and are in various stagesof frack fluid recovery. While the wells are still cleaning up, they have been continuing to increase their production rates as morefracture stimulation fluid is recovered. For the last four days, the 1H well has been averaging 571 Barrels of oil equivalent per day(“BOEPD”) with 473 Barrels of oil per day (“BOPD”), the 2H well has been averaging 643 BOEPD with 523 BOPD, the3H well has been averaging 416 BOEPD, with 339 BOPD and the 4H has been averaging 322 BOEPD with 271 BOPD. The Lovina wells are producingmuch higher percentages of oil than many of our previously drilled wells. The higher oil percentage and the longer well lengths, withthe controlled conservative flowback have led to a longer cleanup cycle compared to past Kolibri wells. Production tubing strings willbe run in the wells starting next week, which previously led to significantly higher production rates in the offset well.

FORGUSONWELL

TheForguson 17-20-3H well has been successfully fracture stimulated and is anticipated to begin its flowback in the next few days. Kolibriis operator and has a 46% working interest in this well, which is testing the economics of our 3,000 acres located on the eastern sideof our acreage.

BARNES6-31-2H and 6-31-3H WELLS

Adrilling rig is scheduled to move in on August 11, 2025, to begin drilling the Barnes 6-31-2H and Barnes 6-31-3H wells. These wells areplanned to be 1.5-mile laterals, in which Kolibri has a 99.9% working interest. Once the drilling of both wells is complete,completion operations are planned to occur simultaneously with the two previously drilled Velin wells.

WolfRegener, President and CEO, commented, “We are thrilled about the high oil percentage of the Lovina wells, which we believe generallyleads to higher netbacks for the Company and will lead to slower decline rates. We are also looking forward to seeing what the ultimateproductivity of these wells will be.

Theeast side acreage, where the Forguson well is located and Kolibri has approximately 3,000 net acres, is not included in the December31, 2024, reserve report. The Caney target for the Forguson well has very similar characteristics and thickness to the main part of thefield in Kolibri’s proved acreage, except that it is shallower. If the Forguson well proves to be economic, in addition to addingcash flow, it could lead to many additional development locations for the Company.

Weare looking forward to the additional production and cash flow from all of these wells, which we expect will significantly increase theCompany’s cash flow and add incremental value to our shareholders.”

ProductType Disclosure

Thisnews release includes references to sales volumes of “oil”, “natural gas”, and “barrels of oil equivalent”or “BOEs”. “Oil” refers to light crude oil and medium crude oil combined, and “natural gas” refersto shale gas, in each case as defined by NI 51-101. Production from our wells, primarily disclosed in this news release in BOEs, consistsof mainly oil and associated wet gas. The wet gas is delivered via gathering system and then pipelines to processing plants where itis treated and sold as natural gas and NGLs.

CautionaryStatements

Inthis news release and the Company’s other public disclosure: The Company’s natural gas production is reported in thousandsof cubic feet (“Mcfs”). The Company also uses references to barrels (“Bbls”) and barrels of oil equivalent (“Boes”)to reflect natural gas liquids and oil production and sales. The references to Boes reflect natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil.Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversionmethod primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratiobased on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizinga conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. Discounted and undiscounted net present value of future netrevenues attributable to reserves do not represent fair market value. Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certainto be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sumof proved plus probable plus possible reserves.

Readersshould be aware that references to initial production rates and other short-term production rates are preliminary in nature and are notnecessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. Readers are referred to the full description of the resultsof the Company’s December 31, 2024 independent reserves evaluation and other oil and gas information contained in its Form 51-101F1Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information for the year ended December 31, 2024, which the Company filed on SEDAR+on March 13, 2025.
