GeoPark Underscores its Commitment to Casanare, Allocating Over 62 Billion Pesos to Socio-Environmental Projects in 2025

Focusing investment on infrastructure, basic sanitation, education, and access to energy to benefit Casanare.

GeoPark underscores its commitment to development in Casanare by allocating over 62 billion pesos in 2025 to key projects for the well-being of its surrounding communities.

In partnership with the respective Mayor's Offices of Tauramena and Villanueva and with community agreement, GeoPark started road infrastructure, basic sanitation, education, and energy access projects in 2024. At a recent meeting with Casanare governor Cesar Ortiz Zorro and his team, GeoPark made a progress report to share updates and coordinate efforts with the Government to increase the impact of the Company's investments in Casanare.

"We firmly believe that progress must be shared. That is why, beyond our operation, we work hand in hand with communities and local authorities to promote projects that truly transform lives," GeoPark's Nature and Neighbors Manager Anibal Fernandez de Soto said.

GeoPark's investment in Casanare in 2025 focuses on four areas:

1. Basic sanitation and environment: Construction of a domestic wastewater treatment plant and a sewerage system in Caribayona, Villanueva, which will benefit more than 1,300 people and safeguard water and public health.
2. Road infrastructure and connectivity: Investment of more than 14 billion pesos to improve the La Vara-Soceagro road and strengthen the Caribayona and Pinalito bridges to improve connectivity, in partnership with Parex and the Government of Casanare. Furthermore, GeoPark will soon donate construction machinery to Tauramena municipality.
3. Education and welfare: Through the Works for Taxes mechanism, GeoPark will provide furniture to 39 schools in Hato Corozal and La Salina, benefiting some 4,000 students. The Company is working in partnership with the Escuela Nueva Foundation to improve education provision in seven rural CRIEET schools in Tauramena, benefiting over 500 children. Additionally, a GeoPark university scholarship program run in partnership with UNAD provides higher education opportunities to more than 20 young people.
4. Energy access: GeoPark will supply more than 1,000 solar PV solutions to families in remote areas of Monterrey and Paz de Ariporo, giving access to clean and reliable energy. The Company has already taken this technology to more than 30 families in the village of La Lucha, in Tauramena, helping improve their quality of life.

"Our commitment to Casanare is long-term. We will continue to promote projects that generate opportunities and improve our neighbors' quality of life, as when communities move forward, we all move forward," Fernandez de Soto added.

GeoPark is strengthening its position as a strategic partner in regional development, underscoring its vision of creating and sharing prosperity in every area where it operates. For more information about these projects, visit GeoPark's www.buenosvecinos.com blog.
