mutually agreed upon wells (&ldquo;Workover Wells&rdquo;) owned by the Company. To fund the work, PIE entered into a term loan
agreement with the Company, dated August 1, 2020, whereby PIE will loan up to $2,000,000, at an interest rate of 6% per annum, maturing
August 7, 2024 unless terminated earlier by PIE. Proceeds of the loan will be used for recompletion or workover of the Workover
Wells. As part of the Agreement, the Company assigned to PIE a combined 85% working and revenue interest in the Workover Wells.
Of the assigned interest, 70% working and revenue interest will be used to repay the obligations under the term loan agreement.
Once the term loan is repaid, PIE will reassign a 35% working and revenue interest to the Company in each of the Workover Wells

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The oil and natural gas industry in the areas in which we operate
is highly competitive. We encounter strong competition from numerous parties, ranging generally from small independent producers
to major integrated companies. We primarily encounter significant competition in acquiring properties. At higher commodity prices,
we also face competition in contracting for drilling, pressure pumping and workover equipment and securing trained personnel. Many
of these competitors have financial, technical and personnel resources substantially larger than ours. As a result, our competitors
may be able to pay more for desirable properties, or to evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties or prospects
than our financial or personnel resources will permit.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In addition to competition for drilling, pressure pumping and workover
equipment, we are also affected by the availability of related equipment and materials. The oil and natural gas industry periodically
experiences shortages of drilling and workover rigs, equipment, pipe, materials and personnel, which can delay drilling, workover
and exploration activities and cause significant price increases. We are unable to predict the timing or duration of any such shortages.</P>

subject to speculative movement and depends upon numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including expectations regarding
inflation, global and regional demand, political and economic conditions and production costs. Future profitability, if any, will
depend substantially upon the prevailing prices for oil and gas.&nbsp; If the market price for oil and gas remains depressed in
the future, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to raise additional capital necessary to finance operations.
Lower oil and gas prices may also reduce the amount of oil and gas, if any, that can be produced economically from the Company's
properties.&nbsp; The Company anticipates that the prices of oil and gas will fluctuate in the near future.</P>

is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to finance its operations through the sale of its equity securities,

certain oil and gas properties. However, the Company reported losses of $(16,835,433) and $(6,654,602) for the years ended December
31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company also had an accumulated deficit of $(40,618,381) as of December 31, 2020. The Company
can provide no assurance that it will be profitable in the future and, if the Company does not become profitable, it may have to
suspend its operations. As a result of the foregoing, the audit report of the Company's independent registered public accounting
firm relating to the Company's financial statements has been modified because of a going concern uncertainty.&nbsp; If the Company
is able to raise the funds necessary to continue its operations, its future performance will be dependent on the success of its
investments. The failure of drilling activities to achieve sufficient quantities of economically attractive reserves and production
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, operations and financial results.</P>

they will not reflect the prices ordinarily received or that will be received for oil and natural gas production because of varying

an annual basis, including GHG emissions resulting from the completion and workover operations of hydraulically fractured oil wells.
Recent federal regulatory action with respect to climate change has focused on methane emissions. For example, in June 2016, the
EPA finalized new air emission controls for emissions of methane from certain equipment and processes in the oil and natural gas
source category, including production, processing, transmission and storage activities. The final rule package includes first-time
standards to address emissions of methane from equipment and processes across the source category, including hydraulically fractured
oil and natural gas well completions, and also imposes leak detection and repair requirements on operators. However, in June 2017,
the EPA proposed a two year stay of fugitive emissions monitoring requirements, pneumatic pump standards, and closed vent system
certification requirements in the 2016 rule while it reconsiders these aspects of the rule. Additionally, on September 11, 2018,
the EPA proposed targeted improvements to the 2016 rule, including amendments to the rule&rsquo;s fugitive emissions monitoring
requirements, and expects to &ldquo;significantly reduce&rdquo; the regulatory burden of the rule in doing so. The BLM finalized
similar rules in November 2016 that limit methane emissions from new and existing oil and natural gas operations on federal lands
through limitations on the venting and flaring of gas, as well as enhanced leak detection and repair requirements but then finalized
a revised rule in 2018 which scaled back the waste prevention requirements of the 2016 rule. Environmental groups have sued in
federal district court to challenge the legality of aspects of the revised rule, and the outcome of this litigation is currently
uncertain. These methane emission rules have the potential to increase our compliance costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">While Congress has from time to time considered
legislation to reduce emissions of GHGs, there has not been significant activity in the form of adopted legislation to reduce emissions
of GHGs in recent years. In the absence of Congressional action, many states have established rules aimed at reducing GHG emissions,
including GHG cap and trade programs. Most of these cap and trade programs work by requiring major sources of emissions, such as
electric power plants, or major producers of fuels, such as refineries and natural gas processing plants, to acquire and surrender
emission allowances. The number of allowances available for purchase is reduced each year in an effort to achieve the overall GHG
emission reduction goal. In the future, the United States may also choose to adhere to international agreements targeting GHG reductions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The adoption of legislation or regulatory
programs to reduce emissions of GHGs could require us to incur increased operating costs, such as costs to purchase and operate
emissions control systems, to acquire emissions allowances or to comply with new regulatory or reporting requirements. Any such
legislation or regulatory programs could also increase the cost of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for, the oil and natural
gas we produce. Consequently, legislation and regulatory programs to reduce emissions of GHGs could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Reduced demand for the oil and natural gas that we produce could also
have the effect of lowering the value of our reserves. It should also be noted that some scientists have concluded that increasing
concentrations of GHGs in the earth&rsquo;s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such
as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, and floods and other climatic events. If any such effects were to occur,
they could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, there have also been efforts
in recent years to influence the investment community, including investment advisors and certain sovereign wealth, pension and
endowment funds promoting divestment of fossil fuel equities and pressuring lenders to limit funding to companies engaged in the
extraction of fossil fuel reserves. Such environmental activism and initiatives aimed at limiting climate change and reducing air
pollution could interfere with our business activities, operations and ability to access capital. Finally, increasing attention
to the risks of climate change has resulted in an increased possibility of lawsuits or investigations brought by public and private
entities against oil and natural gas companies in connection with their GHG emissions. Should we be targeted by any such litigation
or investigations, we may incur liability, which, to the extent that societal pressures or political or other factors are involved,
could be imposed without regard to the causation of or contribution to the asserted damage, or to other mitigating factors. The
ultimate impact of GHG emissions-related agreements, legislation and measures on our company&rsquo;s financial performance is highly
uncertain because the Company is unable to predict with certainty, for a multitude of individual jurisdictions, the outcome of
political decision-making processes and the variables and tradeoffs that inevitably occur in connection with such processes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt/107% Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt">CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Because estimates and assumptions
require significant judgment, future actual results could differ from those estimates and could have a significant impact on the
Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The Company re-evaluates its estimates and assumptions at least
on a quarterly basis. The following policies may involve a higher degree of estimation and assumption:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Successful efforts accounting - Under the
successful efforts method of accounting, the Company capitalizes all costs related to property acquisitions and successful exploratory
wells, all development costs and the costs of support equipment and facilities. Certain costs of exploratory wells are capitalized
pending determination that proved reserves have been found.&nbsp; Such determination is dependent upon the results of planned additional
wells and the cost of required capital expenditures to produce the reserves found.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">All costs related to unsuccessful exploratory
wells are expensed when such wells are determined to be non-productive and other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical
costs, are expensed as incurred. The application of the successful efforts method of accounting requires management's judgment
to determine the proper designation of wells as either developmental or exploratory, which will ultimately determine the proper
accounting treatment of the costs incurred. The results from a drilling operation can take considerable time to analyze, and the
determination that commercial reserves have been discovered requires both judgment and application of industry experience. Wells
may be completed that are assumed to be productive and actually deliver oil and gas in quantities insufficient to be economic,
which may result in the abandonment of the wells at a later date. The evaluation of oil and gas leasehold acquisition costs requires
management's judgment to estimate the fair value of exploratory costs related to drilling activity in a given area.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Impairment of unproved oil and gas properties
- Management&rsquo;s assessment of the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, planned future sales or expiration
of all or a portion of such leaseholds impact the amount and timing of impairment provisions. An impairment expense could result
if oil and gas prices decline in the future as it may not be economic to develop some of these unproved properties.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Asset retirement obligations - the Company
accounts for future abandonment costs of wells and related facilities in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board (&quot;FASB&quot;) Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.&nbsp; Under this method of accounting, the accrual
for future dismantlement and abandonment costs is based on estimates of these costs for each of the Company's properties based
upon the type of production structure, reservoir characteristics, depth of the reservoir, market demand for equipment, currently
available procedures and consultations with construction and engineering consultants. Because these costs typically extend many
years into the future, estimating these future costs is difficult and requires management to make estimates and judgments that
are subject to future revisions based upon numerous factors, including changing technology and the political and regulatory environment
and, estimates as to the proper discount rate to use and timing of abandonment.</P>

management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><I>Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures</I>.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and President (principal
financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020. In making this
assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)
in Internal Control &mdash; Integrated Framework (2013). The term &ldquo;disclosure controls and procedures,&rdquo; as defined
in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &ldquo;Exchange Act&rdquo;), means controls and other
procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that
it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified
in the SEC&rsquo;s rules and forms. Reporting and disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and
procedures designed to ensure that information required to be reported and disclosed by a company in the reports that it files
or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal
financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required reporting figures and disclosures.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and President (principal financial officer) concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, our reporting and disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as we do not have sufficient resources in our accounting function,
which restricts the Company&rsquo;s ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting in
a timely manner. In addition, due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and
may not be economically feasible. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company engaged a financial consultant to assist with the evaluation
of its disclosure controls and procedures. In connection with such engagement, our management had already concluded that the Company&rsquo;s
accounting resources became taxed during certain acquisition activities and the Company should hire additional knowledgeable accounting
personnel, which the Company believes will assist with properly segregating duties and timely analyzing and reviewing information
related to financial reporting. Our management will continue to work with this financial consultant and perform additional analysis
and other procedures to help address the material weakness described above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control
over financial reporting was not effective and that there is a material weakness as identified herein, we believe that our consolidated
financial statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present our consolidated financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for the periods covered thereby in all material respects.</P>

have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Empire Petroleum Corporation (the Company) as of December&nbsp;31,
2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended,

statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December&nbsp;31, 2020 and 2019,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally

accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred significant losses since inception. The Company's ability to continue
as a going concern is dependent upon the existence, discovery, and development of economically recoverable oil and gas reserves
and is dependent upon the Company obtaining necessary financing to carry out its exploration and development program. This raises
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters also
are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.</FONT></P>

discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company's proved oil and natural gas properties are depleted using the units-of-production
method based on the Company's oil and natural gas reserves and are evaluated for impairment by comparison to the future net cash
flows of the underlying oil and natural gas reserves. The Company's oil and natural gas reserve quantities and the related future
net cash flows required management to make significant estimates and assumptions. As a result of changing market conditions and
commodity prices, assumptions can change from period to period, causing the estimates of proved reserves to change. The Company
utilizes a petroleum engineering firm to estimate oil and natural gas reserves using generally accepted methods, calculation procedures
and engineering data. Changes in these assumptions or engineering data could have a significant impact on the amount of depletion
and any proved oil and natural gas property impairment. The proved oil and natural gas properties balance was $7,563,001 as of
December 31, 2020, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment. Related depreciation, depletion,
and amortization expense was $3,118,019 and impairment expense was $8,671,303 for the year ended December 31, 2020.</FONT></P>

merged with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Empire Petroleum Corporation, and simultaneously changed the name of the corporation to
Empire Petroleum Corporation.&nbsp; Both the merger and name change were effective as of August 15, 2001.&nbsp; Americomm Resources
Corporation was originally incorporated in the State of Utah on the 22nd day of August 1983, as Chambers Energy Corporation. On
the 7th day of March 1985, the state of incorporation was changed to Delaware by means of a merger with Americomm Corporation,
a Delaware corporation formed for the purpose of effecting the said change. In July 1995, its name was changed to Americomm Resources

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The ultimate recoverability of the Company's
investment in its oil and gas interests is dependent upon the existence, discovery, and development of economically recoverable
oil and gas reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to further develop the interests, and upon the ability
to attain future profitable production. The Company has been incurring significant losses in recent years and future financing
is uncertain.&nbsp; These factors indicate that there is a substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.</P>

upon the ability of the Company to raise capital and&nbsp;attain future profitable operations. These financial statements have
been prepared on the basis of United States generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a company with continuing operations,
which assume that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and

of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from
these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas
reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection
of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and
unproved oil and natural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future
recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other
significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, goodwill, fair value of stock-based
compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial
instruments and income taxes.</FONT></P>

receivables related to these operations are generally unsecured. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received
by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts only after

of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Costs incurred are deferred until exploration and completion results are evaluated.
At such time, costs of activities with economically recoverable reserves are capitalized as proven properties, and costs of unsuccessful
or uneconomical activities are expensed.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Capitalized drilling costs are reviewed periodically
for impairment. Costs related to impaired prospects or unsuccessful exploratory drilling is charged to expense. Management's assessment
of the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, planned future sales or expiration of all or a portion of such
leaseholds impact the amount and timing of impairment provisions. An impairment expense could result if oil and gas prices decline
in the future as it may not be economical to develop some of these unproved properties.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Lease options are capitalized as unproved
property acquisition costs and are reviewed for impairment if indicators exist that the carrying value of the lease option may

proved reserves are discovered after the options are exercised, these costs will be reclassified as proved property.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Depreciation, depletion and amortization of producing properties is computed
on the units-of-production method on a property by property basis. The units-of-production method is based primarily on estimates
of proved reserve quantities. Due to uncertainties inherent in this estimation process, it is at least reasonably possible that
reserve quantities will be revised in the near term. Changes in estimated reserve quantities are applied to depreciation, depletion
and amortization computations prospectively.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company enters into swap agreements to
manage its exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations. The fair value of derivative contracts are recognized as an asset

contracts mature. For contracts which have not matured, an unrealized gain or loss is recorded based on the value of the outstanding
contracts.</P>

for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of
the related oil and natural gas property asset. Subsequently, the asset retirement cost included in the carrying amount of the
related asset is allocated to expense through depletion of the asset. Changes in the liability due to passage of time are recognized
as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability through accretion expense. Based on certain factors, including commodity
prices and costs, the Company may revise its previous estimates of the liability, which would also increase or decrease the related
oil and natural gas property asset.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company enters into contracts with customers
to sell its oil and natural gas production. Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step revenue recognition
model prescribed in ASC 606. Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company&rsquo;s performance obligations under these contracts
are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchaser. Control is generally
considered transferred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer
of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold,
revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with
the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contracts is typically received from
the purchaser one to two months after production. The Company&rsquo;s oil and natural gas marketing contracts transfer physical
custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser.</P>

a loss from continuing operations, Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as Basic EPS.&nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019,
the Company had 37,928,245 and 18,345,834 options and warrants outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the calculation

included in future calculations of Diluted EPS.&nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the outstanding options were considered anti-dilutive
since the strike prices were above the market price and since the Company has incurred losses year to date.</P>

(ii) production rates; (iii) future operating and development costs; (iv) future commodity prices; and (v) a market-based weighted
average costs of capital. The Company utilized a combination of the New York Mercantile Exchange (&ldquo;NYMEX&rdquo;) strip pricing
and consensus pricing to value the reserves, then applied various discount rates depending on the classification of reserves and
other risk characteristics. Management utilized the assistance of a third-party valuation expert to estimate the value of the oil

Empire Texas, LLC (&ldquo;ET&rdquo;), entered into a joint development agreement (the &ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;) with Petroleum &amp;
Independent Exploration, LLC and related entities (&ldquo;PIE&rdquo;) dated August 1, 2020. Under the terms of the Agreement, PIE
will perform recompletion or workover on specified mutually agreed upon wells (&ldquo;Workover Wells&rdquo;) owned by ET. To fund
the work, PIE entered into a term loan agreement with ET dated August 1, 2020, whereby PIE will loan up to $2,000,000, at an interest
rate of 6% per annum, maturing August 6, 2024 unless terminated earlier by PIE. Proceeds of the loan will be used for recompletion
or workover of the Workover Wells. As of December 31, 2020, approximately $315,000 has been advanced from the loan. As part of
the Agreement, ET will assign to PIE a combined 85% working and revenue interest in the Workover Wells; an assignment was completed
in October 2020 for the initial three Workover Wells. Of the assigned interest, 70% working and revenue interest will be used to
repay the obligations under the term loan agreement. Once the term loan is repaid, PIE will reassign a 35% working and revenue
interest to ET in each of the Workover Wells and retain a 50% working and revenue interest (See Note 8). Activity resulting from
this agreement is being treated as a conveyance.</P>

as of July 2020. PIE can only exercise the $0.25 warrants once all existing non-PIE outstanding warrants to purchase Empire common
stock have been exercised or lapsed. For the $0.141 warrants, PIE may initially acquire 7,533,333 shares of Empire common stock
(See Note 10). On March 11, 2021 the Company amended the Securities Agreement to remove the vesting provisions for the warrants

over the vesting period of the option based on the grant-date fair value of the award.&nbsp; Option fair values are estimated at
the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.&nbsp; The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for
use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable.&nbsp; For purposes
of determining the expected life of the options, the Company utilizes the Simplified Method as defined in Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 107 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.&nbsp; In addition, the Black-Scholes option valuation model requires
the input of other highly subjective assumptions including stock price volatility.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The standardized measure of discounted
future net cash flows relating to oil and natural gas reserves and associated changes in standard measure amounts were prepared
in accordance with the provision of Financial Accounting Standard Board ASC 932-235-555.&nbsp; Future cash inflows were computed
by applying average prices of oil and natural gas for the last 12 months to estimated future production.&nbsp; Future production
and development costs were computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing the oil and natural gas reserves
at the end of the year, based on year end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.&nbsp; Future net cash
flows are discounted at the rate of 10% annually to derive the standardized measure of discounted cash flows.&nbsp; Actual future
cash inflows may vary considerably, and the standardized measure does not necessarily represent the fair value of the acquired
properties' oil and natural gas reserves.&nbsp; Standard measure amounts are:</P>

Actual results could differ from these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, goodwill, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial instruments and income taxes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;(c) Accounts receivable&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company sells oil and natural gas to various customers. The receivables related to these operations are generally unsecured. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date.

The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(d) Oil and natural gas properties&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Costs incurred are deferred until exploration and completion results are evaluated. At such time, costs of activities with economically recoverable reserves are capitalized as proven properties, and costs of unsuccessful or uneconomical activities are expensed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Capitalized drilling costs are reviewed periodically for impairment. Costs related to impaired prospects or unsuccessful exploratory drilling is charged to expense. Management's assessment of the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, planned future sales or expiration of all or a portion of such leaseholds impact the amount and timing of impairment provisions. An impairment expense could result if oil and gas prices decline in the future as it may not be economical to develop some of these unproved properties.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Lease options are capitalized as unproved property acquisition costs and are reviewed for impairment if indicators exist that the carrying value of the lease option may not be recoverable.&amp;nbsp; If the lease options become impaired, expire or are abandoned, the options will be expensed.&amp;nbsp; If proved reserves are discovered after the options are exercised, these costs will be reclassified as proved property.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Depreciation, depletion and amortization of producing properties is computed on the units-of-production method on a property by property basis. The units-of-production method is based primarily on estimates of proved reserve quantities.

Changes in estimated reserve quantities are applied to depreciation, depletion and amortization computations prospectively.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;Other property and equipment is depreciated on the straight-line method.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(e) Derivative instruments&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company enters into swap agreements to manage its exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations. The fair value of derivative contracts are recognized as an asset or liability on the Company&amp;#8217;s balance sheet. Realized gain or loss is recognized as a component of revenue when the swap contracts mature. For contracts which have not matured, an unrealized gain or loss is recorded based on the value of the outstanding contracts.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(f) Asset retirement obligations&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related oil and natural gas property asset. Subsequently, the asset retirement cost included in the carrying amount of the related asset is allocated to expense through depletion of the asset. Changes in the liability due to passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability through accretion expense. Based on certain factors, including commodity prices and costs, the Company may revise its previous estimates of the liability, which would also increase or decrease the related oil and natural gas property asset.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(g) Revenue recognition&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company enters into contracts with customers to sell its oil and natural gas production. Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step revenue recognition model prescribed in ASC 606. Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company&amp;#8217;s performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchaser. Control is generally considered transferred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contracts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production. The Company&amp;#8217;s oil and natural gas marketing contracts transfer physical custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company follows the sales method of accounting for natural gas sales, recognizing revenue based on the Company&amp;#8217;s actual proceeds from the natural gas sold to purchasers on an accrual basis.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Revenues are reported net&amp;nbsp;to working interest and after&amp;nbsp;royalty amounts due.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(h) Per share amounts:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company calculates and discloses basic earnings per share ("Basic EPS") and diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS"). The computation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Diluted Earnings per Share ("EPS") gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on losses.&amp;nbsp; As a result, if there is a loss from continuing operations, Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as Basic EPS.&amp;nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had 37,928,245 and 18,345,834 options and warrants outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the calculation of earnings per share for the periods then ended.&amp;nbsp; Such financial instruments may become dilutive and would then need to be included in future calculations of Diluted EPS.&amp;nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the outstanding options were considered anti-dilutive since the strike prices were above the market price and since the Company has incurred losses year to date.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(i) Income taxes:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.&amp;nbsp; Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.&amp;nbsp; Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is established if management determines it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(j) Financial instruments:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The carrying value of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments.&amp;nbsp;Management's estimates, including reserves and asset retirement obligations, are based on an assessment of qualitative factors that are considered Level 3 measurements in the fair value valuation hierarchy required by FASB ASC 820.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(k) Stock option plan:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company expenses options granted over the vesting period based on the grant date fair value of the award.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;(l) Recently issued accounting pronouncements:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;FASB periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting.

The effective date of the standard is dependent on the facts and circumstances of each amendment. Some amendments do not require transition guidance and will be effective upon the issuance of this standard. Many of the amendments in ASU 2018-09 was effective in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

&lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;For the EnergyQuest acquisition, the fair value of proved oil and natural gas properties was measured using valuation techniques that convert the future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation of proved oil and natural gas properties include estimates of: (i) recoverable reserves; (ii) production rates; (iii) future operating and development costs; (iv) future commodity prices; and (v) a market-based weighted average costs of capital. The Company utilized a combination of the New York Mercantile Exchange (&amp;#8220;NYMEX&amp;#8221;) strip pricing and consensus pricing to value the reserves, then applied various discount rates depending on the classification of reserves and other risk characteristics.

Under the terms of the Agreement, PIE will perform recompletion or workover on specified mutually agreed upon wells (&amp;#8220;Workover Wells&amp;#8221;) owned by ET. To fund the work, PIE entered into a term loan agreement with ET dated August 1, 2020, whereby PIE will loan up to $2,000,000, at an interest rate of 6% per annum, maturing August 6, 2024 unless terminated earlier by PIE. Proceeds of the loan will be used for recompletion or workover of the Workover Wells. As of December 31, 2020, approximately $315,000 has been advanced from the loan. As part of the Agreement, ET will assign to PIE a combined 85% working and revenue interest in the Workover Wells; an assignment was completed in October 2020 for the initial three Workover Wells. Of the assigned interest, 70% working and revenue interest will be used to repay the obligations under the term loan agreement. Once the term loan is repaid, PIE will reassign a 35% working and revenue interest to ET in each of the Workover Wells and retain a 50% working and revenue interest (See Note 8). Activity resulting from this agreement is being treated as a conveyance.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;In addition, PIE and Empire entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (&amp;#8220;Securities Agreement&amp;#8221;) whereby PIE purchased for $525,000 (a) 3,500,000 shares of Empire common stock, (b) warrants to purchase 2,625,000 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share, (c) warrants to purchase 1,800,000 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, (d) warrants to purchase 8,136,518 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, and (e) warrants to purchase up to 11,066,667 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.141 per share. PIE is obligated to exercise the $0.20 warrants within 45 days of when 3 month trailing average production from the Empire Texas properties have increased by 20% over the trailing 3 month trailing average production as of July 2020. PIE can only exercise the $0.25 warrants once all existing non-PIE outstanding warrants to purchase Empire common stock have been exercised or lapsed. For the $0.141 warrants, PIE may initially acquire 7,533,333 shares of Empire common stock (See Note 10). On March 11, 2021 the Company amended the Securities Agreement to remove the vesting provisions for the warrants and PIE exercised all of its warrants for an aggregate exercise price of $3,349,052 (See Note 15).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</empr:JointDevlopmentAgreementDisclosureTextblock>

The Company&amp;#8217;s derivative financial instruments consist of oil and natural gas swaps.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company does not designate its derivative instruments to qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company reflects changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments in its consolidated statements of operations as they occur. Unrealized gains and losses related to the swap contracts are recognized and recorded as an asset or liability on the Company&amp;#8217;s balance sheet.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

The total number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to stock options under the Stock Option Plan is 10,000,000. Further, on April 3, 2019 the Company granted Mr. Pritchard and Mr. Morrissett each, options to purchase 2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.33 per share. The options vest in three installments with 1,250,000 vesting immediately and 625,000 vesting each in April 2020 and April 2021. All of the options expire in April 2029. The value allocated&amp;nbsp;to the vested options was the fair value determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation with the following assumptions:&amp;nbsp; no dividend yield, expected annual volatility of 213%, risk free interest rate of 2.32% and an expected useful life of 5.375 years. The fair value of the options of $812,500 was recorded as compensation expense and allocated to Paid in Capital in 2019. In 2020, the fair value of the options which vested in April 2020 of $406,250 was recorded as compensation expense and allocated to Paid in Capital. The fair of the remaining unvested options is $406,250 as of December 31, 2020.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;On December 31, 2020 the Company granted Mr. Pritchard and Mr. Morrissett each, options to purchase 2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.35 per share. The options vested immediately. All of the options expire in December, 2030. The value allocated&amp;nbsp;to the vested options was the fair value determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation with the following assumptions:&amp;nbsp; no dividend yield, expected annual volatility of 344%, risk free interest rate of .36% and an expected useful life of 5 years. The fair value of the options of $1,949,500 was recorded as compensation expense in 2020 and allocated to Paid in Capital.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company expenses the cost of options granted over the vesting period of the option based on the grant-date fair value of the award.&amp;nbsp; Option fair values are estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.&amp;nbsp; The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable.&amp;nbsp; For purposes of determining the expected life of the options, the Company utilizes the Simplified Method as defined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.&amp;nbsp; In addition, the Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of other highly subjective assumptions including stock price volatility.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;At December 31, 2020, the Company has accumulated net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $19.4 million which begin to expire if not utilized starting in 2021.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Utilization of the Company's loss carryforwards is dependent on realizing taxable income.

  <us-gaap:OperatingLeasesOfLessorDisclosureTextBlock contextRef="From2020-01-01to2020-12-31">&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN"&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Topic 842 (ASC 842) - Leases, effective January 1, 2020. This ASU requires lessees to recognize an operating lease or right-of-use ("ROU") asset and liability on the balance sheet for all right-of-use leases with an initial lease term greater than twelve&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;months.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Under the transition option, the Company will continue to apply the legacy guidance in ASC 840, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented and will make only annual disclosures for the comparative periods because ASC 840 does not require interim disclosures. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reflected in accordance with the Company&amp;#8217;s historical accounting. The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2020, had no impact on the Company's consolidated statement of stockholders' equity or consolidated statement of operations.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;As a lessee, the Company leases its corporate office headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The lease expires on December 31, 2025 and has an option to renew for an additional five-year term. The option to renew the lease is generally not considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Therefore, the period covered by such optional period is not included in the determination of the term of the lease and the lease payments during these periods are similarly excluded from the calculation of right-of-use lease asset and lease liability balances.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;ROU lease expense consists of rent expense related to leases that were included in ROU assets under ASC 842. The Company recognizes right-of use lease expense on a straight-line basis, except for certain variable expenses that are recognized when the variability is resolved, typically during the period in which they are paid. Variable right-of-use lease payments typically include charges for property taxes, insurance, and variable payments related to non-lease components, including common area maintenance.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;As a result of adopting ASC 842, on the effective date, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and liabilities of $613,901. Right-of-use leases are included in right-of-use assets (included in Other Property and Equipment) and current or long-term right-of-use obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses a discount rate that approximates the rate of interest for a collateralized loan over a similar term as the discount rate for present value of lease payments when the rate implicit in the contract is not readily determinable.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Right of use lease expanse was $34,989 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Cash flows for right of use leases was $-0- for the year as the lease payments did not commence until 2021.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step revenue recognition model prescribed in ASC 606. Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company&amp;#8217;s performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchaser. Control is generally considered transferred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contracts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production. The Company&amp;#8217;s oil and natural gas marketing contracts transfer physical custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px"&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;The Company follows the sales method of accounting for natural gas sales, recognizing revenue based on the Company&amp;#8217;s actual proceeds from the natural gas sold to purchasers on an accrual basis.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"&gt;Revenues are reported net&amp;nbsp;to working interest and after royalty amounts due.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:RevenueRecognitionPolicyTextBlock>

Actual results could differ from these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, goodwill, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial instruments and income taxes.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">(c) Accounts receivable</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company sells oil and natural gas to various customers. The receivables related to these operations are generally unsecured. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts only after all collection attempts have been exhausted. The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(d) Oil and natural gas properties</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas activities.

Costs related to impaired prospects or unsuccessful exploratory drilling is charged to expense. Management's assessment of the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, planned future sales or expiration of all or a portion of such leaseholds impact the amount and timing of impairment provisions. An impairment expense could result if oil and gas prices decline in the future as it may not be economical to develop some of these unproved properties.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Lease options are capitalized as unproved property acquisition costs and are reviewed for impairment if indicators exist that the carrying value of the lease option may not be recoverable.&nbsp; If the lease options become impaired, expire or are abandoned, the options will be expensed.&nbsp; If proved reserves are discovered after the options are exercised, these costs will be reclassified as proved property.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Depreciation, depletion and amortization of producing properties is computed on the units-of-production method on a property by property basis. The units-of-production method is based primarily on estimates of proved reserve quantities. Due to uncertainties inherent in this estimation process, it is at least reasonably possible that reserve quantities will be revised in the near term. Changes in estimated reserve quantities are applied to depreciation, depletion and amortization computations prospectively.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">Other property and equipment is depreciated on the straight-line method.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(e) Derivative instruments</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company enters into swap agreements to manage its exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations. The fair value of derivative contracts are recognized as an asset or liability on the Company&#8217;s balance sheet. Realized gain or loss is recognized as a component of revenue when the swap contracts mature. For contracts which have not matured, an unrealized gain or loss is recorded based on the value of the outstanding contracts.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(f) Asset retirement obligations</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related oil and natural gas property asset. Subsequently, the asset retirement cost included in the carrying amount of the related asset is allocated to expense through depletion of the asset. Changes in the liability due to passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability through accretion expense. Based on certain factors, including commodity prices and costs, the Company may revise its previous estimates of the liability, which would also increase or decrease the related oil and natural gas property asset.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(g) Revenue recognition</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company enters into contracts with customers to sell its oil and natural gas production. Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step revenue recognition model prescribed in ASC 606. Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company&#8217;s performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchaser. Control is generally considered transferred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contracts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production. The Company&#8217;s oil and natural gas marketing contracts transfer physical custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company follows the sales method of accounting for natural gas sales, recognizing revenue based on the Company&#8217;s actual proceeds from the natural gas sold to purchasers on an accrual basis.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Revenues are reported net&nbsp;to working interest and after&nbsp;royalty amounts due.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(h) Per share amounts:</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company calculates and discloses basic earnings per share ("Basic EPS") and diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS"). The computation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Diluted Earnings per Share ("EPS") gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on losses.&nbsp; As a result, if there is a loss from continuing operations, Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as Basic EPS.&nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had 37,928,245 and 18,345,834 options and warrants outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the calculation of earnings per share for the periods then ended.&nbsp; Such financial instruments may become dilutive and would then need to be included in future calculations of Diluted EPS.&nbsp; At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the outstanding options were considered anti-dilutive since the strike prices were above the market price and since the Company has incurred losses year to date.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(i) Income taxes:</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.&nbsp; Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.&nbsp; Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is established if management determines it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(j) Financial instruments:</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The carrying value of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments.&nbsp;Management's estimates, including reserves and asset retirement obligations, are based on an assessment of qualitative factors that are considered Level 3 measurements in the fair value valuation hierarchy required by FASB ASC 820.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(k) Stock option plan:</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company expenses options granted over the vesting period based on the grant date fair value of the award.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">(l) Recently issued accounting pronouncements:</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">FASB periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting.

The effective date of the standard is dependent on the facts and circumstances of each amendment. Some amendments do not require transition guidance and will be effective upon the issuance of this standard. Many of the amendments in ASU 2018-09 was effective in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. It did not have a material effect on the Company&#8217;s financial statements.</p></div><span></span>

<td class="text"><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN"><p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">On August 6, 2020 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Empire Texas, LLC (&#8220;ET&#8221;), entered into a joint development agreement (the &#8220;Agreement&#8221;) with Petroleum &amp; Independent Exploration, LLC and related entities (&#8220;PIE&#8221;) dated August 1, 2020. Under the terms of the Agreement, PIE will perform recompletion or workover on specified mutually agreed upon wells (&#8220;Workover Wells&#8221;) owned by ET. To fund the work, PIE entered into a term loan agreement with ET dated August 1, 2020, whereby PIE will loan up to $2,000,000, at an interest rate of 6% per annum, maturing August 6, 2024 unless terminated earlier by PIE. Proceeds of the loan will be used for recompletion or workover of the Workover Wells. As of December 31, 2020, approximately $315,000 has been advanced from the loan. As part of the Agreement, ET will assign to PIE a combined 85% working and revenue interest in the Workover Wells; an assignment was completed in October 2020 for the initial three Workover Wells. Of the assigned interest, 70% working and revenue interest will be used to repay the obligations under the term loan agreement. Once the term loan is repaid, PIE will reassign a 35% working and revenue interest to ET in each of the Workover Wells and retain a 50% working and revenue interest (See Note 8). Activity resulting from this agreement is being treated as a conveyance.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">In addition, PIE and Empire entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (&#8220;Securities Agreement&#8221;) whereby PIE purchased for $525,000 (a) 3,500,000 shares of Empire common stock, (b) warrants to purchase 2,625,000 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share, (c) warrants to purchase 1,800,000 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, (d) warrants to purchase 8,136,518 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, and (e) warrants to purchase up to 11,066,667 shares of Empire common stock at an exercise price of $0.141 per share. PIE is obligated to exercise the $0.20 warrants within 45 days of when 3 month trailing average production from the Empire Texas properties have increased by 20% over the trailing 3 month trailing average production as of July 2020. PIE can only exercise the $0.25 warrants once all existing non-PIE outstanding warrants to purchase Empire common stock have been exercised or lapsed. For the $0.141 warrants, PIE may initially acquire 7,533,333 shares of Empire common stock (See Note 10). On March 11, 2021 the Company amended the Securities Agreement to remove the vesting provisions for the warrants and PIE exercised all of its warrants for an aggregate exercise price of $3,349,052 (See Note 15).</p></div><span></span>

<td class="text"><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN"><p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to commodity price fluctuations. Commodity derivative instruments are used to reduce the effect of volatility of price changes on the oil and gas the Company produces and sells. The Company&#8217;s derivative financial instruments consist of oil and natural gas swaps.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company does not designate its derivative instruments to qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company reflects changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments in its consolidated statements of operations as they occur. Unrealized gains and losses related to the swap contracts are recognized and recorded as an asset or liability on the Company&#8217;s balance sheet.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt;

<td class="text"><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN"><p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Topic 842 (ASC 842) - Leases, effective January 1, 2020. This ASU requires lessees to recognize an operating lease or right-of-use ("ROU") asset and liability on the balance sheet for all right-of-use leases with an initial lease term greater than twelve</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">months.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Under the transition option, the Company will continue to apply the legacy guidance in ASC 840, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented and will make only annual disclosures for the comparative periods because ASC 840 does not require interim disclosures. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reflected in accordance with the Company&#8217;s historical accounting. The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2020, had no impact on the Company's consolidated statement of stockholders' equity or consolidated statement of operations.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">As a lessee, the Company leases its corporate office headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The lease expires on December 31, 2025 and has an option to renew for an additional five-year term. The option to renew the lease is generally not considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Therefore, the period covered by such optional period is not included in the determination of the term of the lease and the lease payments during these periods are similarly excluded from the calculation of right-of-use lease asset and lease liability balances.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">ROU lease expense consists of rent expense related to leases that were included in ROU assets under ASC 842. The Company recognizes right-of use lease expense on a straight-line basis, except for certain variable expenses that are recognized when the variability is resolved, typically during the period in which they are paid. Variable right-of-use lease payments typically include charges for property taxes, insurance, and variable payments related to non-lease components, including common area maintenance.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">As a result of adopting ASC 842, on the effective date, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and liabilities of $613,901. Right-of-use leases are included in right-of-use assets (included in Other Property and Equipment) and current or long-term right-of-use obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses a discount rate that approximates the rate of interest for a collateralized loan over a similar term as the discount rate for present value of lease payments when the rate implicit in the contract is not readily determinable.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Right of use lease expanse was $34,989 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Actual results could differ from these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, goodwill, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial instruments and income taxes.</p></div><span></span>

Control is generally considered transferred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contracts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production.

Warrants and rights outstanding are derivative securities that give the holder the right to purchase securities (usually equity) from the issuer at a specific price within a certain time frame. Warrants are often included in a new debt issue to entice investors by a higher return potential. The main difference between warrants and call options is that warrants are issued and guaranteed by the company, whereas options are exchange instruments and are not issued by the company. Also, the lifetime of a warrant is often measured in years, while the lifetime of a typical option is measured in months. Disclose the title of issue of securities called for by warrants and rights outstanding, the aggregate amount of securities called for by warrants and rights outstanding, the date from which the warrants or rights are exercisable, and the price at which the warrant or right is exercisable.</p></div>
