Erin Energy Completes 3D Seismic Acquisition Offshore The Gambia
HOUSTON, September 14, 2015 – Erin Energy Corporation (Erin Energy or the Company)
(NYSE MKT:ERN) announced today it has successfully completed acquisition of a new 3D
seismic survey off the coast of The Gambia. Polarcus Ltd. was contracted by the Company to
carry out the survey using the Polarcus Alima, an ultra-modern 12 streamer 3D/4D seismic
vessel. The survey covered approximately 1,613 square kilometres on Erin Energy’s A2 and A5
blocks.

The Company will now commence processing and interpretation of the data, with results
expected to be available during the second quarter of 2016.

Segun Omidele, Chief Operating Officer of Erin Energy, commented: “We are pleased to report
that the acquisition has been completed on time and within budget. We look forward to
receiving the processed seismic data, which will allow us to build upon our understanding of the
prolific plays in this emerging basin, and will assist our team in determining exploration activities
on the blocks. We would like to thank Polarcus and our contractors for their professional and
efficient work.”

Erin Energy is operator of the A2 and A5 blocks with 100% interest. The A2 and A5 blocks are
located approximately 28 miles (45 kilometers) offshore, The Gambia and are on-trend with the
recent FAN-1 and SNE-1 hydrocarbon discoveries offshore Senegal by Cairn (LSE:CNE),
Conoco (NYSE:COP), and FAR (ASX:FAR).
