West Isle Signs Engagement Agreement and Updates Operations

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE USA

West Isle Energy Inc. ("West Isle") (CNSX:WEI) announces that the Company has
signed an engagement agreement with Mr. Kim Wojcinski of Gig Harbor, Washington.


This agreement is to provide corporate services regarding West Isles' Colombian
project-including and without limitation, assistance and advice on financing,
financial and business development strategies, corporate structure,
acquisitions, mergers, consolidations, and joint ventures. In consideration for
the performance under the agreement West Isle shall pay Mr. Wojcinski or his
designee a fee of 10% of financing or other related transactions if those
introduced by Mr. Wojcinski proceed to fruition. No compensation will be paid
without performance.


Mr. Wojcinski is a private individual based out of Gig Harbor, Washington. He
has been involved with corporate transactions valued to $100million, which have
included acquisitions and divestitures of oil & gas and EV Battery technology,
financings in Alberta, British Colombia, USA and internationally. Mr. Wojcinski,
a contractor, will serve as vice president of corporate development for West
Isle Energy Inc. effective immediately. His primary role is to assist in
financing West Isles' Colombian venture. Mr. Wojcinski currently serves as vice
president of a private oil and gas company out of Waco Texas and is involved in
the development and funding of that company. Existing operations within West
Isle remain unchanged. The addition of his services are complimentary to WEI and
do not restrict the Company in any way in its pursuit of corporate financings or
mergers and acquisitions.


Operations update:

Colombia: West Isle continues to evaluate and plan for the development of its
Colombian prospect while it seeks out financing to complete the first phases of
exploration and development. This would be exploratory drilling which would
follow the drilling of five development wells on the light oil La Isabela
prospect.


A large prospect on the eastern edge of the block has been recently identified.
It appears on surface mapping and on existing seismic after re-processing and
reinterpretation. This prospect-Bonanza East-lies up dip from, and is similar in
profile to, the ECOPETROL's adjacent Bonanza field, which came on stream in the
late 1960's. Bonanza has produced 17mm barrels of oil to date and still produces
in excess of 2,000 bopd from 25 wells.


Alberta: West Isle farmed out its recompletion of the 5-19-48-8W5M Edmonton
sands gas well and has finished perforating, fracing and testing the well.
Unfortunately it is uneconomic and the zones appear wet. The addition of a
rental compressor to the Company's 5- 30 -48-8W5M Edmonton gas well is under
consideration. However low gas prices are hindering any gas related
expenditures.


West Isle has been served two AFE's for drilling in EVI Alberta. These are the
11 and 12th Slave Point Granite Wash oil wells in this series and West Isle's
share of future drilling and completion is approximately $90,000. Financing will
have to come out of a proposed private placement of Flow-Through and common
shares in the Company.


Staff: Tanya Kwan, results oriented Financial and Certified Production
Accountant with over twelve years' experience in the oil and gas industry has
joined West Isle as its accountant and will be a great asset to the Company.
