Operationally, recent production at El Valle has been negatively impacted by the failure of a PCP bottom hole pump in the EV 28 well due to a buildup of wax in the well-bore. The pump has been replaced following a fracture stimulation of the producing zones and the well has been placed back on production. Work over operations, comprising a well bore clean out and a fracture stimulation, have been completed on a second well, EV 24. The production performance of this well has also been negatively impacted by the accumulation of significant amounts of wax in the well bore.

Oil and Gas Disclosures
"boe/d" means barrels of oil equivalent per day. "bbls/d" means barrels per day. "mmcf/d" means million cubic feet per day. "mcf" means thousand cubic feet.
Barrels of oil equivalent (boes) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (6 mcf) to one barrel (1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil in Argentina as compared to the current price of natural gas in Argentina is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.
