Blackbird Energy Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BBI) ("Blackbird" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has recompleted a well in its recently acquired
Flaxcombe property which was originally completed as a Mannville gas well. At a
cost of only $84,000, the Flaxcombe Sparky zone in the well, 21/16-13-29-27W3
(the "Flaxcombe Sparky Well #4") was recompleted and the rig was released on
February 23, 2013.


The Flaxcombe Sparky Well #4 was pump tested for approximately 20 hours
resulting in an equivalent average daily rate of 60 barrels of oil per day with
a 15% water cut. Production from the Flaxcombe Sparky Well #4 will commence upon
installation of surface facilities and the regulatory approval for downspacing.

Oil Equivalency Conversion (BOE)

Where amounts are expressed on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis, natural
gas volumes have been converted to BOE at a ratio of 6,000 cubic feet of natural
gas to one barrel of oil equivalent (6 Mcf = 1 BOE). The conversion ratio is
based upon an energy equivalent conversion method, primarily applicable at the
burner tip and does not represent value equivalence at the wellhead. BOE values
may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.
