Traverse Energy Ltd. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:TVL) is pleased to
announce that the Board of Directors has approved an exploration and development
program of $12.6 million for 2013. The Corporation plans an active drilling
program for 2013 with 10 wells planned on existing properties. Drilling and
related production expenditures comprise 75% of the budget. The budget is to be
financed by existing working capital, cash flow and new equity issues or debt
where appropriate.


The 2013 drilling program will continue to focus on light oil projects at Turin
(11,400 acres) in southern Alberta and at Carbon and Willow (44,000 acres) in
central Alberta. In addition, the Corporation anticipates additional drilling of
horizontal wells by an industry partner on the Brazeau property in west central
Alberta. At Brazeau (6,400 acres), the Corporation holds a 5-10% gross
overriding royalty on oil and a 10% royalty on natural gas and natural gas
liquids. Fifteen wells were producing on the Brazeau property in December, 2012.



Undeveloped land holdings in Alberta at December 31, 2012 totalled 147,500 gross
(144,700 net) acres with an average working interest of 98%. At December 31,
2012, the Corporation remained debt free and had an estimated $2.7 million of
working capital.
