Marketwired Canada


NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED
STATES.


Pine Cliff Energy Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PNE) ("Pine Cliff") is pleased to announce
its 2013 year-end reserves. Pine Cliff's independent reserve report was prepared
by McDaniel & Associates Limited ("McDaniel") in accordance with National
Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI
51-101") with the effective date of December 31, 2013.


As a result of three acquisitions in 2013, Pine Cliff is pleased to report
significant increases in its reserve base in 2013. The increases are mainly a
result of the acquisition of Skope Energy Inc. ("Skope") in the first quarter of
2013 and follow up acquisitions to increase Pine Cliff's working interest in the
Skope properties in July and August 2013. Highlights of Pine Cliff's reserves
for the 2013 year include:




--  Proved reserves increased to 14,425.9 MBOE at December 31, 2013 from
    2,492.5 MBOE at December 31, 2012, an increase of 479%; 
--  Proved plus probable reserves increased to 19,274.1 MBOE at December 31,
    2013 from 3,839.5 MBOE at December 31, 2012, an increase of 402%; 
--  Approximately 75% of total reserves are classified as proved reserves
    with 25% classified as probable reserves; 
--  Approximately 77% of proved reserves are classified as proved developed;
    and 
--  Net present value for proved plus probable reserves of $134.4 million,
    discounted at 10%; an increase of $93.5 million, or 229%, from December
    31, 2012. 



McDaniel is using a price forecast of $95.00 and $96.50 per bbl for Edmonton
light crude oil in 2014 and 2015, respectively, and $4.00 and $4.25 per MMBtu
for AECO natural gas in 2014 and 2015, respectively.

Certain statements contained in this news release include statements which

impact of general economic conditions, industry conditions, volatility of
commodity prices, currency fluctuations, imprecision of reserve estimates,
environmental risks, competition from other industry participants, the lack of
availability of qualified personnel or management, stock market volatility and

such forward-looking information is based on certain assumptions and analyses
made by us in light of our current experience and expected future developments,
as well as other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. The

suitable source of information for readers who are unfamiliar with Pine Cliff
and should not be considered in any way as a substitute for reading all of Pine
Cliff's public disclosure.


Tables may not add due to rounding.

Where amounts are expressed in a BOE, natural gas volumes have been converted to
barrels of oil equivalent on the basis that six Mcf of natural gas is equal to
one bbl of oil. This conversion ratio is based on energy equivalence primarily
at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
The term BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.

As defined in NI 51-101, proved reserves are those reserves that can be
estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that
the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved
reserves. Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain
to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the
estimated proved plus probable reserves.
