Amarok Energy Inc. Update on Wyoming Operations

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 26, 2014) - Amarok Energy Inc. ("Amarok" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:AMR) wishes to provide an update on its current operations in Wyoming.

After conducting further due diligence and after further communications with the operator of the Lake Creek 21 well (the "LC21 Well"), Amarok has determined that the LC21 Well is currently producing from both the upper and lower Tensleep Zones, both of which were activated during the previously announced completion of that well. There are no additional zones being evaluated for production from the LC21 Well. The operator is reviewing the potential use of an electrical submersible pump in order to improve the production level of the LC21 Well.

The Lake Creek 22A well (the "LC22A Well"), in which Amarok's wholly-owned US subsidiary, Trilateral Energy USA Inc. ("Trilateral USA") holds a 50% working interest, which also targeted the Tensleep formation, was swabbed for a period of 29.5 hours over a 5 day completion operation. The total amount of oil recovered was 6.3 barrels (3.2 net) which equates to a 5.1 bbls/day rate (2.6 net). The total amount of water recovered was 712 barrels (356 net).

The Zimmerman Butte 6 well (the "ZB6 Well"), in which Trilateral USA, holds a 50% working interest, which was recompleted in the Phosphoria formation, was swabbed for a period of 22.5 hours over a 3 day recompletion operation. The total amount of oil recovered was 2.0 barrels (1.0 net) which equates to a 2.0 bbls/day rate (1.0 net). The total amount of water recovered was 454 barrels (227 net).

The operator of the subject wells has advised Amarok that, although there can be no assurance that production volumes will increase, by pumping larger volumes of fluid from the LC22A Well and the ZB6 Well, when on production, as well as from the LC21 Well, oil production volumes can reasonably be expected to increase from the test rates above and from the previously announced test rate in respect of the LC21 Well, respectively.

Amarok is a Calgary, Alberta based corporation engaged in the exploration, development and production of petroleum and natural gas in North America.
