The seismic data is expected to enable the Company to further delineate Volkensen and four additional high impact exploration prospects which it has identified to date. Other pools in the North West German Basin with reservoir intervals and trapping geometries similar to the Company's prospects have each recovered more than five million barrels of oil during their development. The seismic program will be funded from existing cash balances at a cost of approximately $5,000,000 CDN.

PRD is the operator and 100% holder of both the Volkensen and Sittensen licences, subject to a 50% back-in right in favour of the prior operator in respect of the Volkensen production licence only. Given the scope and prospects of these licences, the Company is evaluating one or more farm-out transactions with strategic partners with the goal of increasing activity and development on the Company's other licences.

Boerger Field

PRD has received an expanded 3D seismic data set covering the Boerger field and surrounding area. It has completed its reprocessing of this data and submitted a field development plan to the operator, which the operator is currently reviewing. The Company is also in discussions with the operator to become the designated operator for all future field re-development in order to accelerate development timeframes for this pool. The Company has proposed drilling two wells from the Boerger 7A well site in the first quarter of 2015 as the next stage of development for the Boerger pool. In effect, the Company's accelerated Volkensen development drilling has substituted the well development activity originally planned for Boerger in the last quarter of 2014.

The operator and the Company completed facility modifications at Boerger 7A during June, 2014 and are assessing the effectiveness of these modifications. In that regard, the operator has shut-in production in order to carry out certain pressure transient tests and is expected to produce the Boerger 7A well intermittently for the remainder of the third quarter. Since being placed on production, the Boerger 7A well has completed 102 operating days between February 24 and June 30, 2014 and produced a total of 15,729 barrels of oil. PRD is encouraged by the initial results of this well, however feels that the well is not producing to its full capability due to production being limited to a portion of the horizontal length. The Company has proposed a work-over plan to the operator utilizing an acid squeeze to improve productive capability, a method which the Company believes would optimize completion methods for future wells.

The Boerger 7A well represents a significant milestone in the Company's development which it can use to expand its business in Germany over its significant land position. This operation has provided the Company with valuable operating experience which it is currently using to develop cost reduction strategies to apply to its independent operations elsewhere in Germany. Further, the knowledge gained of the regulations and regulatory process, the understanding of the local service company dynamics, and our improved public communication methods which incorporate transparency to all German stakeholders, are all as a result of drilling Boerger 7A. The permitting for the development of Volkensen and the 3D seismic shoot over the Volkensen and Sittensen Licences stand to be substantial beneficiaries of this experience which bodes well for our ability to be able to substantially increase activity in 2015 and beyond.

Other Licences

The Company recently obtained legacy geophysical and production data over one of its production licences from one of the largest oil & gas companies in the North West German Basin marking the first transaction between PRD and this company. This transaction expands the Company's strategic access to legacy data which is an important step in advancing activity on its licences. The Company is evaluating the data received to date.

PRD is continuing to augment its understanding of its existing land base of 2,413,300 acres with improved access to data of Germany's major oil & gas companies. Management has recently completed a technical review of its existing licences and prospects resulting in the high-grading of certain exploration and production licences. These licenses are expected to be the focus of corporate activity in late 2015 and throughout 2016.

PRD remains committed to the German marketplace both environmentally and economically. In the last twelve months, the Company has increased its staffing levels in Germany from three professionals to over ten while continuing to manage its general and administrative expenses to a modest level. We are committed to expanding our business in Germany with highly skilled German people and expect to continue to increase employment in the country. World class netbacks and an attractive underdeveloped geologic environment, combined with the current geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe, provide incentives for both the oil and gas industry and its stakeholders to progress with development of Germany's vast natural resources.

Forward looking information

This news release contains forward-looking information relating to enhancing potential recoveries from the Volkensen oil pool, expected results from first stage of the Volkensen development program, expected timing for commencement of the first stage of the Volkensen development program, environmental impacts and reduction of costs associated with operations, prospectivity of the Sittensen licence, expected timing for commencement and completion of the Volkensen/Sittensen seismic program and costs and funding in respect of that program, delineation of exploration prospects, production from the Boerger 7A well, optimizing production capabilities of future wells, cost reduction strategies, focus of corporate activities in 2015 and 2016, expanding the Company's business in Germany and other statements that are forward-looking in nature. Such forward-looking information is subject to important risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The results or events predicated in this forward-looking information may differ materially from actual results or events.
