Raise Production Inc. Provides Operational Update


CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Aug. 26, 2015) - Raise Production Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RPC) ("Raise" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following update to its shareholders regarding the results from the current deployment of its Horizontal Wellbore Production System (the "System").

From inception, the Company's primary strategic intent has been to prove its theory that multiple pumps in a horizontal wellbore will increase production, and then to commercialize this improvement. We still believe this theory is sound. We have seen nothing that invalidates this theory to date.

As a follow-up to our last press release, this phase of testing has validated the new replacement part which had compromised previous deployments of the System and operation of the System in the field. We are now confident that this problem has been solved and the replacement part is fully functional and reliable.

Consistent with past practices, the Company has conducted a ninety day test program which is now in the closing phase. Information gained from this deployment has highlighted a limitation in activation mechanics. The Company believes this activation challenge has compromised our testing causing us to see no significant sustained production increase above the established average daily production range for this wellbore. Due to this belief, the Company is currently developing a redesign of this portion of the activation system. The design change is anticipated to take four to six months to develop, test, and redeploy. The changes required are "in-house" design changes, and do not require a third party manufacturer of unique parts. The Company is committed to making these changes as quickly as possible and will provide shareholders with updates in the future as this design change is implemented.

Eric Laing, President & CEO, commented, "We would like to thank our industry partner for its continued support as it has agreed to work with the Company to facilitate a re-deployment of the System once the activation system has been addressed and corrected."
