– CANADA, Calgary – Zenith Energy Ltd. (LSE/TSX.V:ZEN), the dual listed international oil & gas production company, is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Saadallah Al-Fathi as a Non-Executive Director of the Company.

Mr. Saadallah Al-Fathi served as Head of the Energy Studies Department, Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in Vienna, Austria as well as OPEC Representative to the Executive Council of the World Energy Council and Member of its Studies and Developing Countries Committee. Following these high-profile institutional positions Mr. Al-Fathi has served as an advisor to several government and private entities as well as establishing himself as an award-winning oil and gas industry researcher and columnist. Mr. Al-Fathi has authored a number of research papers on the oil & gas sector and was recently joint winner of the 2016 scientific research award of the Organization of the Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries.

Andrea Cattaneo, CEO of Zenith, commented: “I am very pleased to welcome Saadallah Al-Fathi to Zenith’s Board of Directors. The addition of someone of this calibre and experience evidences the ambition of the Company and further enhances the skillset of Zenith’s Board.

It is also worth noting that with today’s announcement of Mr. Al- Fathi’s appointment the Company has further enlarged its spectrum of cultural and linguistic diversity, with a total number of ten languages now spoken by Directors. This is a recognised strength of the Company’s Board and gives Zenith an important advantage in its ability to connect and engage with the many diverse regions that offer oil & gas production opportunities.

The Company has arrived at a key juncture in its development with the transformational acquisition of the largest onshore field in Azerbaijan in partnership with SOCAR (State Oil Company of the Azerbaijan Republic). Whilst the rehabilitation and development of this field is Zenith’s primary objective going forward, the Company is closely evaluating new opportunities for expansion.

Mr. Al-Fathi’s considerable experience will play an important role as the Company pursues its production objectives.
