MAH Marksmen Energy Inc

Marksmen Energy Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MAH) ("Marksmen" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce that Marksmen and its Joint Venture Partner, Houghton Investments
LLC ("Houghton"), completed the drilling of their fourth well (B-78-10),on
June14, 2014. During the drilling of the Cambrian Knox formation the well
circulated oil to surface. The well has been logged and is currently in the
process of being cased and completed. The well will be tied-in with appropriate
tanks, pump jack and other surface equipment and put on production as quickly as
possible. Marksmen has a 90% working interest in the well.


The first well drilled, which was drilled in early May, is now operating under
electric power as of June 14, 2014 which allows the well to be produced
optimally on a 24 hour schedule. The well is tied in to both oil tanks and a
water injection well. 


The zone that was completed on the Number 2 Well has been determined to be
uneconomic as an oil producing zone but it has excellent technical parameters to
be a water injection/disposal well which is an important asset given the oil in
this formation is on top of a water driven reservoir. Additionally, there are
other oil bearing zones that have the potential of being completed at a later
date. The well has been suspended.


The Number 3 Well has been completed and tied-in to tanks and other surface
equipment, including a water injection well. The well has, since being drilled,
flowed oil, periodically, under its own reservoir pressure. An Allen 80 pump
jack, with 80,000 torque pounds of lift, has been ordered for this well with 2
7/8 inch tubing in the well. The pump jack is rated at 250 BPD, at twelve
strokes per minute.


In the first quarter of 2014, Marksmen completed a 3D seismic program on
approximately five square miles of land of the AMI (area of mutual interest).
The Company with its joint venture partner has completed the drilling of four
wells in six weeks. Marksmen is now satisfied that the use of 3D seismic, the
drilling of the four wells and the technical expertise of our technical team and
our joint venture partner has confirmed the methodology being employed. The
wells drilled are a representative cross section of the Cambrian Knox remnants
in the area covered by the 3D seismic survey. An additional sixteen locations,
outlined by the 3D survey, remain to be tested by the Joint Venture partners. 


Marksmen has determined that it is now strategically very important to spend the
necessary time to complete the tie in of the wells with electrical power; to put
them on production and to generate cash-flow. More importantly it will afford
the technical team the opportunity to complete the necessary technical analysis
to optimize the wells and to accumulate the technical data necessary for reserve
calculations under NI51-101. Additional drilling on other 3D targets will
commence in July.


Archie Nesbitt, CEO and President of Marksmen states, "Marksmen is very pleased
with the results of our drilling program to date and the very large contribution
that 3D seismic and its interpretation by our technical experts have made to the
overall success to date. The program validates the importance of using the best
3D seismic techniques available to exploit the oil bearing zones in this part of
Ohio."


Additionally, Marksmen has begun the process of acquiring additional lands
adjacent to its existing land holdings in the current AMI in order to initiate
another 3D seismic program. 


The Company has also initiated negotiations with other potential joint venture
partners in the area to undertake a similar program of 3D seismic and drilling
on their current land holdings.
