Tindalo-1 Oil Well in the Philippines Flows Over 18,500 bopd

TG World Energy Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TGE) ("TG World") has been advised by project operator, Nido Petroleum Limited ("Nido") that several days of production testing of the Tindalo-1 well located in SC54A in the Philippines is complete. Key highlights of the testing include:

-- Extended production flow test yields 27 degrees API oil at a maximum flow rate of 18,689 bopd
-- Well put on production June 6, 2010 with oil loading into a Floating Storage Offloading Vessel ("FSO")
-- 44 meters of Nido limestone reservoir was perforated and stimulated
-- Strategy to complete additional discoveries and prospects totaling over 200 million barrels of oil in place ongoing

A maximum flow rate of 18,689 barrels of oil per day ("bopd") has been achieved on natural flow without the assistance of a down-hole pump installed in the well to provide artificial lift. The well was initially put on an Extended Well Test ("EWT") at a rate of approx.15,000 bopd on June 6, 2010. Some water has been produced to surface which may be a natural phenomenon of the reservoir or may have been introduced during the drilling and completion process. The well will be tested at various flow rates during the EWT to determine the optimum reservoir and watercut management strategy. The oil is processed onboard the "Aquamarine Driller" drilling rig and offloaded by floating hose to the moored FSO "Tove Knutsen". TG holds a 12.5% working interest in the well through its ownership in Service Contract 54A.

Cliff James, President of TG World states "we are very pleased with the performance of our operator Nido. They have performed extremely well and produced results that have exceeded the partners' expectations. We thank them for their effort. It has been particularly pleasing to note that we have not required the use of the downhole pump to achieve the initial high oil production rate. The Tindalo well is currently the largest oil producer in the Philippines, a feat we are all proud of. In addition, I am pleased for the TG World shareholders as our company has graduated from an exploratory oil company with no production to a producing entity. Our objective is to now grow the Philippine production profile with further successes. The next year will be exciting for TG World as we expect to drill single exploratory wells on well defined seismic features in Alaska, Niger and Africa in the first half of 2011".

The Tindalo-1 well was tested through 44 metres of perforations at the top of the carbonate reservoir after stimulation with acid. Oil flow rate was limited by the capacity of the production tubing installed in the well. Maximum flow rates were achieved through a 136/64th inch choke and a flowing tubing head pressure of 59 psig during a multi-rate production test. Preliminary analysis of oil samples indicates 27 degrees API oil with no wax and with minor associated gas of approximately 13 scf/bbl and moderate 1,200 ppm H2S concentration. Extensive crude oil assay samples were taken from the flow and these will be analysed over the coming weeks. Reservoir pressure and oil flow data collected during the production testing is currently being analysed in detail to update the subsurface reservoir model. Preliminary analysis is indicating an oil/water contact consistent with the pre-testing P50 OOIP estimate of 11 million barrels. The well has been completed, tested and put into EWT with no health, safety or environment incidents or injuries.

Following the successful test results the project partners have approved the 2010 Production Operations Work Program and Budget and have exercised its 10 month option on the jack-up drill rig 'Aquamarine Driller'.

In addition to continued operations at Tindalo, work will now be accelerated on the SC 54A area development planning. The Tindalo testing results will first be used to update subsurface models for a number of prospects and leads within the block to rank and prioritise subsequent targets for drilling and/or completion. In addition to a further three discoveries in SC54A, 20 shallow water prospects with an estimated potential for over 200 million barrels of oil in place have been identified.
