Cabo Drilling Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CBE) ("Cabo Drilling" or the "Company")
announces that Cabo Drilling (Panama) Corp. and Fugro Panama S.A ("Fugro")
formed an alliance to supply geotechnical drilling services at the Cristobal 2
Port Site at the Caribbean entrance to the Panama Canal.


Pursuant to the agreement between Cabo Drilling and Fugro, Cabo Drilling
supplied drill equipment and a drill crew for marine geotechnical sampling,
using a Jack-up Barge owned and operated by Fugro. During the program Fugro was
responsible for logging and processing samples from the geotechnical boreholes,
laboratory testing of recovered samples, geophysical studies; including both
bathymetric and reflection seismic studies; and all engineer reporting.


Cabo Drilling's scope of the marine geotechnical program included drilling and
sampling 22 boreholes to depths of up to 45 meters below the mud line, and
recovering quality samples of soil and rock to be used to characterize the site
for future port structures. Cabo completed the program ahead of schedule and
within budget.


"We are excited to be able to combine Cabo Drilling's drilling expertise with
Fugro's extensive engineering experience," comments Herb Butler, General Manager
of Cabo Drilling Panama. "Fugro has the experience and professionalism that
complements our capabilities and is a well-respected company with whom we are
pleased to form a close alliance. We are optimistic that both parties will
benefit from this union and have a bright future together."

year-over-year, increasing its revenues in fiscal 2012 from fiscal 2011 by 93%
(Panama and Colombia) to $17.40 million. With its office established at the new
