New Western Energy Corp. Commences Work-Over Program on the Trice Lease

IRVINE, Calif., April 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- New Western Energy Corp. (OTCBB: NWTR), an independent energy company engaged in the development, production and exploration of oil, gas and other minerals in North America, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Royal Texan Energy Co. has commenced a work-over program on four wells on the Trice Lease in Shackelford County, Texas.

The Company acquired the 580-acre Trice Lease in January as part of our acquisition of Royal Texan Energy Co.  There are currently 24 oil wells, and six water injection wells on the Trice Lease. All the wells on the Trice Lease are in the King Sand formation, which is a series of sandstone channels producing from depths of between 500 ft. and 700 ft.

The current work-over program will focus on wells #1, #3, #16 and #18. Servicing the existing wells will require a change to the well head on #16, running electricity and setting the pump jack for #3, and changing the down hole pumps on all four wells.

"The goal of this work-over program is to increase the rate of production at Trice without incurring heavy costs associated with drilling new wells," said Javan Khazali, President of New Western Energy Corp.  "Production resulting from this work-over program would have a positive impact on our cash flow."
