Eaglewood Announces First Pipeline and Facilities Licences in the Western Province, PNG

Eaglewood Energy Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EWD) ("Eaglewood") is pleased to announce
that it has been offered a Strategic Processing Facility Licence (APPFL 3) and
Strategic Pipeline Licence (APL 9) in the Western Province of Papua New Guinea.
Final grant of the Licences is subject to a number of condition precedents, the
most significant of which is the establishment of a Project Agreement between
Eaglewood and the Independent State of Papua New Guinea.


The Licenses will grant Eaglewood the right to construct and operate a strategic
gas condensate processing facility close to the Ubuntu Discovery (PRL 28 -
Eaglewood, Talisman Energy, Mitsubishi, MFI) and Elevala, Tingu and Ketu
discoveries (PRL 21 - Horizon Oil, Talisman Energy, Mitsubishi, Kina Petroleum)
and a strategic pipeline to deliver the condensate from these fields to a
location on the Fly River from where it will be shipped to market. 


As announced previously Eaglewood has a participation agreement in place with
Trafigura PTE Ltd whereby the two companies are working together with a view to
jointly financing and owning the pipeline and processing facility. Other
investors including the Independent State of Papua New Guinea, landowner
companies, local participating upstream companies, infrastructure funds, etc
will also have an opportunity to participate in the ownership of this
infrastructure. 


Commenting on the Licence offers CEO Brad Hurtubise said "We are very pleased to
have been offered these Licences. They are the first petroleum infrastructure
licences to be awarded in the Western Province of Papua New Guinea and as such
they are a significant milestone as the Western Province transitions to becoming
the next petroleum producing province in Papua New Guinea. The licences are also
the first petroleum infrastructure licences in Papua New Guinea to be offered
with the "strategic" designation under the PNG Oil and Gas Act. 


The strategic designation of these licences will ensure transparent and open
access to production infrastructure in this area of the Western Province. In
addition to processing and transporting hydrocarbons from Ubuntu and PRL 21
fields, any additional available capacity in the system will permit further
discoveries in the area to be developed more cost effectively and in a shorter
timeframe, creating positive outcomes for Eaglewood, our partners, other E&P
companies in the area and the State of Papua New Guinea."
