Seaway Energy Services Inc. Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

Seaway Energy Services Inc., ("Seaway" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SEW)
listed on the TSX Venture Exchange Inc. under the trading symbol "SEW" is
pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange has accepted a notice filed by
Seaway of its intention to make a normal course issuer bid.


The notice provides that Seaway may, during the 12 month period commencing
February 17, 2011 and ending February 17, 2012, purchase on the TSX Venture
Exchange up to 3,098,847 Common Shares, being approximately 10% of the "public
float" of the common shares of Seaway. The price which Seaway will pay for any
such shares will be the market price at the time of acquisition. The actual
number of common shares which may be purchased and the timing of any such
purchases will be determined by Seaway. There are 30,988,470 common shares of
Seaway currently outstanding.


Seaway believes that its common shares have been trading in a price range which
may not adequately reflect their value in relation to Seaway's business and its
future business prospects. As a result, depending upon future price movements
and other factors, Seaway believes that its outstanding common shares may
represent an attractive investment and a desirable use of a portion of its
available funds.


Seaway is a Calgary-based corporation providing environmental consulting
services to the oil and gas industry. These services include managing the
construction of oil and gas leases and access roads, cleanup of leases and roads
following drilling activity and reclamation of leases following drilling and
production.
