Advisories

This presentation contains forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact that address activities, events or developments that Frontera EnergyCorporation (the “Company” or “Frontera”) believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future (including, without limitation, statements regarding estimates orassumptions in respect of production, revenue, cash flow and costs, reserve and resource estimates, potential resources and reserves and the Company's exploration anddevelopment plans and objectives) are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of the Company based oninformation currently available to the Company. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of the Company todiffer materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that theywill have the expected consequences to, or effects on, the Company. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, amongother things: uncertainty of estimates of capital and operating costs, production estimates and estimated economic return; uncertainties associated with estimating oil and naturalgas reserves; failure to establish estimated resources or reserves; volatility in market prices for oil and natural gas; fluctuation in currency exchange rates; inflation; changes inequity markets; perceptions of the Company's prospects and the prospects of the oil and gas industry in Colombia and the other countries where the Company operates or hasinvestments; uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future; the uncertainties involved in interpreting drilling results and other geological data;and the other risks disclosed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's annual information form dated March 14, 2017 filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation toupdate any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherentin the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on suchstatements due to the inherent uncertainty therein. In addition, reported production levels may not be reflective of sustainable production rates and future production rates maydiffer materially from the production rates reflected in this presentation due to, among other factors, difficulties or interruptions encountered during the production of hydrocarbon.

This presentation contains future oriented financial information and financial outlook information (collectively, "FOFI") (including, without limitation, statements regarding expectedcapital expenditures, production levels, oil prices and G&A), and are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications as set forth in the above paragraph.The FOFI has been prepared by management to provide an outlook of the Company's activities and results, and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. TheCompany and management believe that the FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting management’s best estimates and judgments, however, actual results ofoperations of the Company and the resulting financial results may vary from the amounts set forth herein. Any FOFI speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except asmay be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any FOFI, whether as a result of new information, future events or results orotherwise. The Company discloses several financial measures in this presentation that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under International Financial ReportingStandards ("IFRS") (including operating and consolidated Netback and operating and consolidated EBITDA). These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitutefor measures of performance prepared in accordance with IRFS. For more information please see the Company’s 2016 Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated March 14,2017 filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

All reserves estimates contained in this presentation were prepared in accordance with the definitions, standards and procedures contained in the Canadian Oil and Gas EvaluationHandbook and National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (“NI 51-101”) and included in the F1 Report filed on SEDAR. Additional reservesinformation as required under NI 51-101 can also be found on SEDAR, under the: (i) Forms 51-101F2 – Report on Reserves Data by Independent Qualified Reserves Evaluatorcompleted by each of RPS and D&M dated February 27, 2017; and (ii) Form 51-101F3 – Report of Management and Directors on Oil and Gas Disclosure dated March 14, 2017. Allreserves presented are based on forecast pricing and estimated costs effective December 31, 2016 as determined by the Company’s independent reserves evaluators. TheCompany’s net reserves after royalties incorporate all applicable royalties under Colombia and Peru fiscal legislation based on forecast pricing and production rates, including anyadditional participation interest related to the price of oil applicable to certain Colombian blocks, as at year-end 2016. Contingent Resources are those quantities of petroleumestimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but which are not currentlyconsidered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies. Contingent Resources have an associated chance of development (economic, regulatory, market andfacility, corporate commitment or political risks). The estimates herein have not been risked for the chance of development. There is no certainty that the Contingent Resources willbe developed and, if they are developed, there is no certainty as to the timing of such development or that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the ContingentResources. It is not an estimate of volumes that may be recovered. Actual recovery is likely to be less and may be substantially less or zero. The values in this presentation areexpressed in United States dollars and all production volumes are expressed net of royalties, unless otherwise stated.

Portfolio Optimization

During the second quarter of 2017, consistent with the new progressive and disciplined approach, the Company made the strategic

decision to slow down production volumes at certain blocks and focus its resources on conducting reservoir studies to facilitate

optimization of certain blocks over the long-term. The following producing blocks were impacted:

• Quifa SW and Cajua – Reservoir studies were commenced to facilitate optimization and the placement of future development

wells and evaluate the potential for more efficient well designs (multi-laterals). Now that these studies are near completion the

Company will be accelerating the development program in the third quarter of 2017

• Guatiquia – Development drilling was reduced due to reservoir studies that are required to ensure prudent reservoir management

and preparations for the drilling of injector wells for reservoir pressure maintenance. The first injector well in the Ardilla Field will

be drilled in the fourth quarter of 2017 in conjunction with the acceleration of the development drilling

• CPI Blocks (Orito and Neiva) – The Company has also been re-evaluating the forward development program and is currently

awaiting the results from a pilot water injection program in Neiva to enhance recovery and the completion of reservoir studies to

assess the production potential of the “A” Limestone in the Orito Field. The Company expects to accelerate the development of

these fields as a result of these studies

• Copa Field – Reservoir injectivity tests have been successfully completed, indicating that future injector wells will be able to

effectively provide reservoir pressure maintenance support and immediately facilitate increased production from the Copa Field
