Pan Orient Energy Corp. ("Pan Orient" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:POE)
provides an update on drilling operations in Thailand.


Concession L53 Onshore Thailand (Pan Orient Operator and 100% Working Interest)

L53-A Central Exploration Well 

The L53-A Central exploration well is currently being abandoned after failing to
encounter commercial hydrocarbons. The well was vertical and drilled to a total
depth of 966 meters, reached on March 2, 2014. 


Thailand drilling is anticipated to recommence in approximately June 2014 with
the drilling of the high impact L53-A North exploration prospect that was
identified on a recently acquired 3D seismic survey. The environmental impact
assessment ("EIA") for the L53-A North well location, and a number of others, is
currently under application with approval anticipated in May 2014 but subject to
the possibility of similar delays that have been experienced in past EIA
approvals. 


The L53-A North prospect lies approximately 5 kilometers south of the PTT
Exploration and Production operated U-Thong oil field. The disappointing
drilling result of the L53-A Central prospect, located in the Kamphaeng Saen
basin, is believed to have no bearing on the pre drill estimated chance of
success for the L53 -A North prospect, which is located in the separate Suphan
Buri basin.


Pan Orient is a Calgary, Alberta based oil and gas exploration and production
company with operations located onshore Thailand, Indonesia and in Western
Canada. 


Readers are cautioned that well test results are not necessarily indicative of
long-term performance or of ultimate recovery.
