FIELDPOINT PETROLEUM ANNOUNCES EXPLORATION PROJECT


PLAN INCLUDES DRILLING UP TO 12 HORIZONTAL WELLS IN 2014

AUSTIN, TX – (PRNEWSWIRE) – November 27, 2013 - FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation (NYSE/MKT:FPP) today announced that it has entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement with Riley Exploration Group of Blanchard, OK.   Under the terms of the agreement, the companies plan to pool their interests within geographical boundaries of the Serbin Field located in Lee and Bastrop Counties, Texas (the Area of Mutual Interest, or AMI), and to drill up to 12 horizontal wells in 2014.  The companies will share expenses and revenues on a pro rata basis determined by the contributed lease acreage owned by each company.  This will result in FieldPoint owning an approximate 25% interest, and Riley owning the remaining approximate 75% interest.

Roger Bryant, Executive Chairman for FieldPoint, stated “We are obviously very excited to be able to bring this news to our shareholders.  The Serbin Field is where our founder, Ray Reaves, acquired his first leases that ultimately led to the forming of this company.  It is only fitting that this be the site of FieldPoint’s largest project to date.   We are very anxious to get underway in January.”  


The Joint Exploration Agreement calls for the relationship between the companies to be exclusive within the AMI for a period of five years.  Plans also include a revitalization of the existing vertical wells, which could result in significant increases in production.  The total number of horizontal wells to be drilled over the life of the agreement is yet to be determined.


FieldPoint’s CFO/COO, Phillip Roberson, added, “Riley has a great management team and track record, along with a highly skilled and experienced staff.  We have developed a lot of confidence, and trust, in them as we have worked through the details of this agreement over the past several months.  We all believe that this project could contribute significantly to our main objective, which is building shareholder value.”
