AROWAY ENERGY INC. (TSX VENTURE:ARW)(OTCQX:ARWJF) (www.arowayenergy.com) (the
"Company") is pleased to announce it has drilled and cased an exploration test
well on its 100% owned and operated property in the Little Bow region of
Southern Alberta. The 1500 meter light oil exploration test well, targeted and
encountered prospective deep horizons as well as a shallower upper Manville
target. Aroway is managing the exploration risk of this well by farming out a
portion to an industry partner resulting in Aroway paying 63.5% of all costs
associated with this well to maintain a 75% interest of all the revenue from
this oil exploration test well. Aroway will commence production testing when
ground and local municipal conditions permit.
Chris Cooper, President & CEO commented, "We are very encouraged with the logs
from this exploration test well which is a step out from the prolific Little Bow
Upper Manville Pool, which has produced over 12 million barrels of oil to date
and is currently in the process of tertiary recovery. Heading into spring
break-up, we will be finalizing our 2013 exploration and development program and
look forward to production testing our new well in Little Bow."

Chris Cooper, President & CEO
A conversion ratio of 1 barrel of oil equivalent ("boe"); 6 Mcf has been used,
which is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable
at the burner tip nd does not necessarily represent a value equivalency at the
wellhead. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.
