Triton Energy Corp. ("Triton" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:TEZ) is pleased
to provide the following update with respect to a deep test well in which the
Corporation is participating in the Tay River area in the foothills of Alberta
(the "Test Well").


The Test Well, located at 16-27-35-11W5M, is licensed to total depth of 5,462
meters and is targeting a Leduc reef formation that has been identified on 3-D
seismic. Geological and seismic interpretation suggests that the Test Well is
targeting a structure similar in size to the structure that hosts the Tay River
Leduc gas pool located approximately 12 kilometers north-northeast of the Test
Well. The Test Well commenced drilling on January 6, 2009 and the first string
of intermediate casing has been set. Total depth is currently expected to be
reached in May.


Upon fulfillment of its earning obligations Triton will have a 12.5% working
interest in the Test Well, Section 27-35-11W5M and ten (10) additional
contiguous sections of land. A major oil and gas producer is the operator of the
Test Well.


Triton is a Calgary, Alberta based corporation engaged in the exploration,
development and production of petroleum and natural gas. The Corporation's
common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol
"TEZ".


Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This news release may include forward-looking statements including opinions,
assumptions, estimates and management's assessment of future plans and
operations, timing of drilling of wells and expected depth, and budgeted cost of
wells. When used in this document, the words "anticipate," "believe,"
"estimate," "expect," "intent," "may," "project," "plan", "should" and similar
expressions are intended to be among the statements that identify
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a wide
range of risks and uncertainties, and although the Corporation believes that the
expectations represented by such forward-looking statements are reasonable,
there can be no assurance that such expectations will be realized. Any number of
important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
the forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, risks associated
with oil and gas exploration, development, exploitation, production, marketing
and transportation, the volatility of oil and gas prices, currency fluctuations,
the ability to implement corporate strategies, the state of domestic capital
markets, the ability to obtain financing, incorrect assessment of the value of
acquisitions, failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions,
changes in oil and gas acquisition and drilling programs, delays resulting from
inability to obtain required regulatory approvals, delays resulting from
inability to obtain drilling rigs and other services, delays in tie-in
operations, results from testing, environmental risks, competition from other
producers, imprecision of reserve estimates, changes in general economic
conditions and other factors more fully described from time to time in the

as no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity or
achievements. Except as required by applicable securities laws, the Corporation
does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements.


While geological and seismic interpretation suggests that the Test Well is
targeting a structure similar in size to the structure that hosts the Tay River
Leduc gas pool located approximately twelve kilometers to the north-northeast,
there is no assurance that the Test Well will be successful or have similar
results to wells in the Tay River Leduc gas pool.
