TrillionEnergy Comments on Rising Oil Prices
April27, 2026 – Vancouver, B.C. – Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) wishes to comment on the current global oil price environment and its implications for the Company’s M47 oil exploration programme in Southeastern Türkiye.
MarketContext
The global oil market is experiencing the largest supply disruption on record. Restricted flows through the Strait of Hormuz have removed an estimated 9.1 million barrels per day from global supply, a level that dwarfs prior shocks, including the Gulf War. Brent crude has traded above US$100 per barrel, with physical spot grades rising materially as cargoes become scarce.
The world’s spare production capacity, concentrated almost entirely in the Gulf states, has now been effectively sidelined.
Global oil inventories are tracking toward all-time lows. Much of what appears to be falling demand is not buyers pulling back on price; it is forced consumption loss because supply cannot physically reach them. Prices must rise further to ration available barrels, not merely to reflect a geopolitical premium that could reverse overnight.
A decade of underinvestment in new oil production has left the industry poorly positioned to absorb shocks of this scale. With global demand still near 100 million barrels per day and no structural decline in sight, the case for higher oil prices over the coming years is stronger than it has been in a generation.

WhatThis Means for M47
The independent resource evaluation of Block M47, completed by Chapman Hydrogen and Petroleum Engineering Ltd., effective December 31, 2025, used a near-term Brent price of US$63.68 per barrel for 2026, well below today’s Brent price. The evaluated NPV-10 of US$733.5 million (unrisked, net to Trillion’s 29% working interest) was calculated at prices the market has already significantly exceeded. Trillion’s M47 target is 32.4° API light oil, premium-grade crude priced at or near the Brent benchmark, making the current environment directly accretive to project economics.
Trillion is not a passive observer of this environment. The Company’s earn-in obligations are actively underway, with US$15 million committed across 2026 and 2027 to advance the M47 work programme, including exploration drilling on a block where the geology is a cluster of major discoveries, increasing the region’s oil production from 0 to +80,000 barrels of oil a day.
Management Comment
“Thisis the largest supply disruption in the history of the oil market, and inventories are heading toward all-time lows. The consensus isstill treating this as a temporary spike. We don’t see it that way. A decade of underinvestment doesn’t unwind in a quarter.The world still needs 100 million barrels a day; that number isn’t going backwards, and the easy barrels are getting harderto find. Türkiye imports much of its crude oil. When Brent trades above $100, that dependency is felt directly in energy costs,supply security, and policy. Domestic onshore production of the kind we are developing at M47 becomes exactly what Türkiye needs.The Cudi-Gabar province is a cluster of major discoveries, a proven petroleum system with an established regional production base. Weare building a company around that reality, and our timing, we believe, is right.” – Scott Lower, President of Trillion Energy
