Aroway Energy Inc. Increases Oil Production by 25%

AROWAY ENERGY INC. (TSX VENTURE:ARW)(OTCQX:ARWJF) (www.arowayenergy.com) (the "Company" or "Aroway") is pleased to provide the following production update with respect to the Company's operations. Aroway's current net production is 650 boe/d, which consists of 90% oil from the Company's Peace River Arch core area. Aroway's oil production ratio has increased 25% since the Company's production update from December of 2011. Aroway is also pleased to report it has an additional 200 boe/d of natural gas production that the Company has elected to shut-in due to current natural gas prices.

The increased oil production enables Aroway to capitalize on the current price of oil while preserving the Company's natural gas reserves until a recovery occurs in the current natural gas price. The increased oil production coupled with the current price of oil is providing record monthly revenue for the Company.

Chris Cooper, President & CEO of Aroway Energy, commented, "The 25% increase in our oil production has translated to record monthly revenues for Aroway. As a result, our upcoming drill program which will commence immediately after spring break up is 100% oil focused. Aroway's current production coupled with our 200 boe/d of shut-in natural gas keeps us on track to meet our 2012 year-end target."
