Bridge Energy ASA

("Bridge", "Group" or the "Company")

Suspension of Shares on Oslo Børs

Bridge, the Oslo Børs and AIM listed oil and gas exploration and production company (OSE:BRIDGE/AIM:BRDG.L), advises that trading of the Company's shares on the Oslo Børs was suspended at 8.14 a.m. (CET) today following the completion of the compulsory acquisition by Spike Exploration AS of all remaining shares in the Company. This has been done to avoid incorrect registration of orders and trades in a situation where Bridge will no longer have any shares outstanding for trading.

As outlined in the announcement released by the Company on 18 November 2013, the Company has applied for the formal cancellation of the Company's shares to trading on AIM (the "Cancellation") and it is expected that Cancellation will occur at 7.00 a.m. on 17 December 2013. For the avoidance of doubt, trading of the Company's shares on AIM has not been suspended.
