Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - April 1, 2026) - Axiom Oil and Gas Inc. ("Axiom" or the "Company") has listed its Manola oil and gas property for sale with Sayer Energy Advisors and has filed a new claim against Tidewater Midstream and Infrastructure Ltd. ("Tidewater") for $1,136,441 plus damages for the seizure and sales of the Company's Manola gas volumes for Tidewater's own account. Axiom cannot assure a potential purchaser of the Manola property that it will be able to access sales gas pipelines and receive any payment for the produced gas wells or solution gas. This new claim is separate, and in addition to Axiom's main claim for $110 million for the Brazeau River action, where Tidewater stranded 6.3 Billion cubic feet natural gas and nearly 1 Million barrels of natural gas liquids reserves despite Axiom paying $4.5 million in advance for a Tidewater sour service plant turnaround that was not performed as scheduled in Apr. 2024, and having a Gas Handling Agreement for "P1" highest priority service for "life of reserves" and no limitation of liability. Axiom has brought the Manola and Brazeau matters to the attention of the Alberta Energy Regulator, and regulatory engagement is ongoing.

Historically, Axiom utilized a Tidewater gas gathering system that transports its Manola sales gas to a Tidewater meter station just north of Edmonton where Tidewater took possession of Axiom's Manola gas. Tidewater has been selling the gas for its own account since October 2024 without reimbursing Axiom upon request. Manola is located approximately 200 km from Brazeau and not is not in any way connected to the Manola operations. Because the Company is not receiving the gas revenue and to preserve its gas wells reserves value, Axiom recently shut in its Manola gas wells and gas plant, while it continues to produce its oil wells.

The Sayer process has bids due Apr. 2, 2026. The link may be found at the following location, and click on Manola
