SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2017</B></P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: center; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0"><B>Edmonton, Alberta, August 2, 2017</B> - North American Energy
Partners Inc. (&ldquo;NAEP&rdquo; or &ldquo;the Company&rdquo;) (TSX:NOA/NYSE:NOA) today announced results for the second quarter
ended June 30, 2017.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Martin Ferron, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company
stated, &ldquo;This was a quarter in which we experienced considerable operational adversity. As well as facing wetter than normal
spring break up conditions, especially in June, we had to deal with the very negative impact of a plant fire at one of our busiest
worksites. This fire caused the cancellation of a major earthworks stripping contract, right at the very point that we were poised
to start it and resulted in the deferral of other planned work at the site.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Additionally Mr. Ferron commented, &ldquo;On other business fronts
we made solid progress in our quest for a degree of revenue diversification, with the award of a coal excavation project in British
Columbia. We were also delighted to negotiate a much improved credit facility, which expands our available liquidity by over $50
million, without borrowing base limitations.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Mr. Ferron concluded, &ldquo;All in all, despite the seasonal slowness
of the second quarter, we still expect to achieve our financial objectives for 2017, with notably around 25% of our EBITDA for
the second half of the year coming from two projects outside the oil-sands.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company has prepared its consolidated financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP). Unless otherwise specified, all dollar
amounts discussed are in Canadian dollars.</P>

Facility provides borrowings of up to $140.0 million with an ability to increase the maximum borrowings by an additional $25.0
million, subject to certain conditions (an increase from the $70.0 million Revolver and $30.0 million Term Loan of the Previous
Credit Facility). This facility matures on August 1, 2020, with an option to extend on an annual basis. The Credit Facility also

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0"><B>Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2017</B></P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">For the three months ended June 30, 2017, revenue was $47.6 million,
up from $24.2 million in the same period last year. Last year's wildfire and subsequent May 3, 2017 evacuation of Fort McMurray
negatively affected the Company&rsquo;s activities in the prior year quarter. The wildfire shut down all of its operations in the
Fort McMurray area and significantly delayed the ramp up of summer mine support activities.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Current year revenue was driven by overburden removal work at the
Millennium mine site and mine support services work at the Millennium, Kearl, Mildred Lake and Aurora mine sites. The Company&rsquo;s
activity in the quarter was negatively impacted by a customer&rsquo;s cancellation of a significant earthworks contract as a result
of a plant fire. The Company was able to secure replacement work for the majority of the fleet committed to the cancelled project,
but lost the early start-up advantage as the Company had to relocate the equipment to other sites. Contributing to the slower spring
quarter was the ever changing weather conditions during the period which resulted in shift cancellations and continuous haul road
repairs for the Company&rsquo;s overburden removal work.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Complementing the Company&rsquo;s results in the quarter was its
continued mine support activities at the Red Chris copper mine located in northern British Columbia and mobilization activities
for the Company&rsquo;s new mine support service contract at the Fording River coal mine located in southeastern British Columbia.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">For the three months ended June 30, 2017, gross loss was $1.2 million,
down from a $2.1 million gross profit, or an 8.8% gross profit margin, in the same period last year. The gross loss in the quarter
was the result of start-up delays on new projects as a result of the earthworks contract cancellation coupled with lower productivity
and haul road repairs on the Company&rsquo;s overburden removal work as a result of the aforementioned changing weather patterns
that occurred during the quarter. Contributing to the gross loss was lower pricing negotiated by the Company&rsquo;s customers
on its long-term service agreements and equipment running repair activities as the Company drew down on its maintenance backlog
generated from a very strong first quarter winter works program, in preparation for the ramp-up of activities in the second half
of the year. Prior year results did not include a similar sized drawdown of maintenance backlog, typical for spring breakup period,
as a result of the 2016 Fort McMurray wildfires and related operational shutdown.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">For the three months ended June 30, 2017, depreciation was $8.1
million, up from $5.5 million in the same period last year.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an
operating loss of $6.6 million, an increase from a $5.3 million operating loss for the same period last year. General and administrative
expense, excluding stock-based compensation cost, was $4.9 million for the quarter, consistent with the $4.9 million for the same
period last year.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Stock-based compensation expense decreased $1.4 million compared
to the prior year primarily as a result of the effect of the lower share price on the carrying value of the liability classified
award plans.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a
$6.2 million net loss (basic loss and diluted loss per share of $0.23), compared to the $4.9 million net loss (basic and diluted
loss per share of $0.16) recorded for the same period last year.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Interest expense was $1.8 million for the quarter, up from $1.6
million for the same period last year, primarily due to the issuance of Convertible Debentures at the end of the prior quarter
partially offset by the redemptions of the Series 1 Debentures in prior periods. The Company recorded $2.2 million of deferred
income tax benefit in the current period compared to the $1.9 million of deferred income tax benefit recorded in the period year
driven by the higher loss in the current period.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The variance between the basic loss per share in the current period
and the basic loss per share in the prior period is partially affected by the reduction in the weighted average number of issued
and outstanding common shares to 27,241,717 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 30,212,275 for the three months
ended June 30, 2016.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Although the much watched weekly oil inventory levels in the US
are drawing wide ranging conclusions, it is the Company&rsquo;s view that a re-balancing of oil supply and demand appears to be
underway. Therefore, although the deep and unusually long cyclical downturn in the oil industry is well into its third year, the
worst seems to be in the past. NAEP is currently anticipating that the oil price will perhaps only average around US$50 per barrel
for 2017 but may end the year at over US$55 per barrel and then extend gains into 2018.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">In response to the downturn, most of the Company&rsquo;s oil sands
mining customers elected to increase their production and all slashed their expenses in order to lower operating costs per barrel.
While it is unlikely that new mines will be announced until oil prices are much higher, it is important to note that the new Fort
Hills mine is due on-stream late this year and this new mine, together with the drive for increased production on most existing
mines, should lead to greater volumes of recurring mine services for the Company to address.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Several of the Company&rsquo;s customers have achieved operating
cost savings per barrel of around 30% in Canadian dollar terms, which equates to about 40% in US dollars, due to the depreciation
of the Canadian dollar, in which most expenses are incurred. As the Canadian dollar is not expected to appreciate much more than
recently in 2017, this situation still provides the Company&rsquo;s customers with a meaningful cost advantage to exploit. The
Company believes this is translating into more work opportunities, such as a reclamation project that bolstered first quarter results.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Another example of an opportunity resulting from high oil sands
production is the overburden stripping contract the Company was awarded in January and planned to commence in this second quarter.
Unfortunately, due to a plant fire at the mine site, the job was cancelled, which resulted in a more normal, seasonally slow, spring
break-up period for the Company. Early indications point to similar recurring earthmoving volumes being available for next winter.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">In other resource industries, such as coal, iron ore, base metals,
and precious metals, the Company has seen much increased bidding activity and opportunities. The Company was successful in winning
a summer 2016 tailings dam construction job at the Red Chris copper mine in British Columbia, which has been extended through 2017.
More recently the Company has been awarded a coal excavation job at the Fording River mine, for the second half of 2017, the work
site again being in British Columbia. The Company is extremely pleased with the progress it has made to achieve a degree of revenue
diversification and expects that success to continue as the Company has been shortlisted for work on two other mines that may commence
in Q3.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company anticipates the workload from these two non-oil sands
projects to positively contribute to its financial results in the second half of the year and will add to a mix of small construction
jobs and recurring work that the Company expects to execute in the oil sands. Although, due to the extended impact of the plant
fire and oil price uncertainty, the construction season in the oil sands will not be as robust as the Company had earlier hoped,
the work secured outside that market should counter this situation.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company&rsquo;s business development efforts in the infrastructure
sector continue and it has received additional partnering requests and opportunities to participate in major infrastructure projects.
The Company was very pleased to qualify to bid for the Fargo-Moorhead flood mitigation project, in the northern US, as part of
a strong consortium. The bid will be completed in Q1/2018, with an award expected in Q3/2018 to the successful proponent.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company definitely views the infrastructure sector as a positive
opportunity and is actively pursuing both major and minor projects. In major infrastructure projects, the Company seeks to find
strong senior partners with mega-project experience looking for an earthworks contractor that has the assets and can put the &ldquo;boots
on the ground&rdquo; to execute earthworks safely and efficiently. If the Company&rsquo;s partnership is successful in the tender,
it looks to self-perform the earthworks while also contributing to the overall project management team. In situations where the
Company&rsquo;s project team is not awarded the work, it will continue to pursue the opportunity as a potential earthworks subcontractor
to the awarded team(s). The Company believes the project insight and knowledge gained by being a project partner increases its
ability to accurately assess risk and price as a subcontractor.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company&rsquo;s debt restructuring initiatives, with a focus
on lowering its cost of debt, combined with a stronger financial position and improved operating cost structure is providing a
stable base to allow the Company to remain competitive in its pricing and affording it with the ability to take advantage of organic
growth and potential acquisition opportunities.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">In summary, the Company continues to pursue heavy civil construction
contracts in the oil sands, along with a series of more diversified resource projects and major infrastructure opportunities. The
Company is excited about its organic growth potential and believes it can capitalize on it to grow both Consolidated EBITDA and
free cash flow significantly over the next three years. Although the cancellation of the overburden stripping contract, mentioned
earlier, was another adverse event for the Company to deal with, it believes that it has the work in hand and further work opportunities
to still meet its financial growth targets for 2017.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">This release contains non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial
measure is generally defined by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities as one that purports to measure historical or future
financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be adjusted in the most
comparable GAAP measures. In this release, non-GAAP financial measures are used, such as &ldquo;gross profit&rdquo;, &ldquo;gross

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Gross profit&rdquo; and &ldquo;Gross Loss&rdquo; are defined
as revenue less: project costs, equipment costs, and depreciation. &ldquo;Gross profit margin&rdquo; is defined as gross profit
as a percentage of revenue.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company believes that gross profit (loss) is a meaningful measure
of the business as it portrays results before general and administrative (&ldquo;G&amp;A&rdquo;) overheads costs, amortization
of intangible assets and the gain or loss on disposal of plant and equipment and assets held for sale. Management reviews gross
profit (loss) and gross profit (loss) margin to determine the profitability of operating activities, including equipment ownership
charges and to determine whether resources, plant and equipment are being allocated effectively.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company will often identify a relevant financial metric as a
percentage of revenue and refer to this as a margin for that financial metric. &ldquo;Margin&rdquo; is defined as the financial
number as a percent of total reported revenue. Examples where NAEP uses this reference and related calculation are in relation
to &ldquo;gross profit margin&rdquo;, &ldquo;operating income margin&rdquo;, &ldquo;net income margin&rdquo; or &ldquo;Consolidated
EBITDA margin&rdquo;.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">NAEP believes that presenting relevant financial metrics as a percentage
of revenue is a meaningful measure of its business as it provides the performance of the financial metric in the context of the
performance of revenue. Management reviews margins as part of its financial metrics to assess the relative performance of its results.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Total Debt&rdquo; is defined as the sum of the outstanding
principal balance (current and long-term portions) of: (i) capital leases; (ii) borrowings under the Company&rsquo;s Previous Credit
Facility (excluding outstanding Letters of Credit); (iii) convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the &ldquo;Convertible
Debentures&rdquo;); and (iv) liabilities from hedge and swap arrangements. The Company&rsquo;s definition of Total Debt excludes
deferred financing costs related to Total Debt. The Company believes Total Debt is a meaningful measure in understanding its complete
debt obligations.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Senior Debt&rdquo; is defined under the Previous Credit Facility
as Total Debt plus outstanding Letters of Credit under the Company&rsquo;s Previous Credit Facility, less: (i) purchase money debt
incurred for construction of particular property or equipment, but only for 60 days after the property or equipment is commissioned
for use; (ii) convertible unsecured subordinated debentures; and liabilities from hedge and swap arrangements.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&quot;Fixed Charges&quot;, as defined in the Company&rsquo;s Previous
Credit Facility represents cash interest, scheduled payments on debt, unfunded cash distributions and unfinanced net capital expenditures.
The term &quot;unfunded&quot; is defined as requiring borrowings from the Previous Credit Facility or the issuance of the Company&rsquo;s
shares to support cash distributions such as dividends payments or the redemption of any class of its shares. The term &quot;unfinanced&quot;
is defined as expenditures.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Free cash flow&rdquo; is defined as cash from operations
less cash used in investing activities (excluding cash used for growth capital expenditures and cash used for / provided by acquisitions).
The Company feels free cash flow is a relevant measure of cash available to service its Total Debt repayment commitments, pay dividends,
fund share purchases and fund both growth capital expenditures and potential strategic initiatives.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&quot;Consolidated EBITDA&quot; is defined in the Company&rsquo;s
Previous Credit Agreement as EBITDA, excluding the effects of unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, realized and unrealized
gain or loss on derivative financial instruments, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, gain or loss on disposal of plant
and equipment, gain or loss on disposal of assets held for sale and certain other non-cash items included in the calculation of
net income.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company believes that Consolidated EBITDA is a meaningful measure
of business performance because it excludes interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and the effect of certain gains
and losses and certain non-cash items that are not directly related to the operating performance of the Company&rsquo;s business.
Management reviews Consolidated EBITDA to determine whether plant and equipment are being allocated efficiently. In addition, the
Company&rsquo;s Previous Credit Facility requires it to maintain both a fixed charge coverage ratio and a senior leverage ratio
which are calculated using Consolidated EBITDA. Non-compliance with these financial covenants could result in a requirement to
immediately repay all amounts outstanding under the Previous Credit Facility.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">As EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures,
the Company&rsquo;s computations of EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. EBITDA and Consolidated
EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to operating income or net income as measures of operating performance or cash
flows as measures of liquidity. EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be
considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company&rsquo;s results as reported under US GAAP. A reconciliation
of Net income to Consolidated EBITDA is as follows:</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"><B>Forward-Looking Information </B></P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The information provided in this release contains forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words &ldquo;expect&rdquo;,
&ldquo;may&rdquo;, &ldquo;could&rdquo;, &ldquo;believe&rdquo;, &ldquo;anticipate&rdquo;, &ldquo;continue&rdquo;, &ldquo;should&rdquo;,
&ldquo;estimate&rdquo;, &ldquo;potential&rdquo;, &ldquo;likely&rdquo;, &ldquo;target&rdquo; or similar expressions. Forward looking
statements include the statements that the Company expects to achieve its financial objectives for 2017, with around 25% of its
EBITDA for the second half of the year coming from two projects outside the oil sands; that the Company anticipates the oil price
will perhaps only average around US$50 per barrel for 2017 but may end the year at over US$55 per barrel and then extend gains
into 2018, that the Fording River coal mine project will be completed in December of 2017; that the Fording River award, coupled
with the Company&rsquo;s continued mine support activities at the Red Chris copper mine in northwest British Columbia, provides
a strong foundation that can be leveraged in the Company&rsquo;s continuing efforts towards achieving revenue diversity; that
the Company&rsquo;s new Credit Facility provides the ability to expand its liquidity in line with its growth; that no new mines
will be announced until oil prices are much higher, but that the new Fort Hills mine is due on-stream late this year and that
it, together with the drive for increased production on most existing mines, should lead to greater volumes of recurring mine
services; that the Canadian dollar will not appreciate much more than recently in 2017 and that the same should translate into
more work opportunities for the Company; that recurring earthmoving volumes next winter should be similar to what we expected
this winter; that the Company will be able to achieve continued success with its revenue diversification efforts; that the workload
from the Red Chris, Fording River project will contribute positively to the Company&rsquo;s financial results in the second half
of FY2017 and will add to a mix of small construction jobs and recurring work that the Company expects to execute in the oil sands;
that work secured outside of the oil sands market will counter the lack of robustness in the construction opportunities in oil
sands in FY2017; that the Fargo-Moorhead flood mitigation project bid will be completed in Q1/2018 and will be awarded in Q3/2018;
the Company believes the project insight and knowledge gained by being a project partner increases its ability to accurately assess
risk and price as a subcontractor; that the Company&rsquo;s recent debt restructuring initiatives, with a focus on lowering its
cost of debt, combined with a stronger financial position and improved operating cost structure should provide a stable base to
allow the Company to remain competitive in its pricing and provide it with the ability to take advantage of organic growth and
potential acquisition opportunities; that the Company can capitalize on its organic growth potential to grow both Consolidated
EBITDA and free cash flow significantly over the next three years; and that the Company believes it has the work opportunities
to still meet its financial growth targets for 2017.</P>
