Oslo, 30 October 2013 -- DNO International ASA ("DNO International"), the
Norwegian oil and gas company, announced today that it has tested 5,900 barrels
per day of 36º API crude oil from the Salsala-1 exploration well drilled in
Block 32, the Republic of Yemen.

Salsala-1 was directionally drilled to a total depth of 4,147 meters and
encountered oil shows in the Shuqra formation which was perforated over a 32
meter interval, acidized and tested. The well flowed naturally at an initial
rate of 5,900 barrels per day before being choked back to 3,400 barrels per day
due to limited surface storage capacity.

The well was spudded in July 2013 and the cost to drill, complete and test was
$10 million. Block 32 contains two producing fields, Godah and Tasour, whose
gross output currently averages 2,500 barrels per day.

"Yemen continues to be an important focus area for DNO International and this
discovery reflects our commitment to continue to build on our in-country
knowledge, expertise and investments," said Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani, DNO
International's Executive Chairman. He added that the Salsala-1 well will be
placed on an extended production test and that an appraisal well is scheduled in
early 2014 as part of a fast track development of this discovery.

DNO International holds a 38.95 percent interest in and operates Block 32.
Ansan Wikfs holds 42.93 percent, TransGlobe Energy Corporation 13.12 percent and
Yemen Oil & Gas Corporation the remaining 5 percent.

In addition to Block 32, DNO International holds interests in five other blocks
in Yemen, two of which are also in production, one under development and two in
the exploration phase. Year-to-date, DNO International's Company Working
Interest production in Yemen has averaged just over 4,000 barrels per day.
