DCK Donnycreek Energy

Donnycreek Energy Inc. ("Donnycreek" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:DCK)
provides an operations update for its activities in the Wapiti and Kakwa areas. 


Wapiti Drilling Operations

Donnycreek has drilled and evaluated its 3,800 metre stratigraphic Montney
exploration well at 13-26-64-8 W6M (the "13-26 Well"). Based on petrophysical
analysis, the Company kicked off and is drilling a 1,600 metre long horizontal
well in the middle Montney from 13-26 to 1-26-64-8 W6M (the "1-26 Well"). The
1-26 Well will be completed with a hydraulic stimulation scheduled for early
March 2014. The Company's working interest in the 1-26 Well is 75%.


Donnycreek holds a 75% operated working interest in 328 gross (246 net) sections
of Montney P&NG rights at Wapiti. 


Kakwa Drilling Operations

Donnycreek has drilled and tested a sixth middle Montney natural gas well on its
Kakwa block at 16-25-63-6 W6M (the "16-25 Well"). The initial gas rates and
condensate yields from the 16-25 Well flow test are similar to the previous 5
middle Montney wells drilled on the Kakwa acreage. The 16-25 Well should be tied
in and on production by mid-February 2014. The Company advises that production
test results are not necessarily indicative of the long-term performance or of
ultimate recovery. 


The Company is currently conducting a fracture stimulation on its seventh middle
Montney horizontal well at 16-17-63-5 W6M (the "16-17 Well"). Following a brief
clean up period, and subject to results, the 16-17 Well should be tied in and
brought on production by mid-February 2014.


An eighth middle Montney horizontal well is currently being drilled at 15- 30
-63-5 W6M (the "15-30 Well"). Upon rig release the drilling rig will remain on
the same surface lease and commence drilling the Company's ninth horizontal well
at 102/14- 30 -63-5 W6M (the "102/14-30 Well") which will be targeting the upper
Montney. The program contemplates completing these wells consecutively once the
102/14-30 Well has finished drilling. 


Kakwa Central Production Facility and Production

The Company's Kakwa central gas compression and condensate stabilization
facility at 16-7-63-5 W6M (the "16-7 Facility") is now operational. The 16-7
Facility which has a design throughput of 15 mmcf/d of natural gas and 3,000
bbls/d of lease condensate is currently handling flush production rates of up to
approximately 8 mmcf/d of natural gas and 1,200 bbls/d of lease condensate (4
mmcf/d and 600 bbls/d net) from the Company's previously reported four wells;
13-17-63-5 W6M, 14- 30 -63-5 W6M, 3-19-63-5 W6M and 5-23-63-6 W6M. The recent
drilling, completion and construction activity required production from the
producing wells to be shut in during the majority of December 2013 and early
January 2014.


As previously reported Donnycreek and its partners intend to employ one rig year
round at Kakwa and are currently permitting a new multi-well pad at 7-19-63-5
W6M and plans to drill two horizontal middle Montney wells between March and
July, 2014. The program contemplates completing these wells consecutively once
the second well has finished drilling.


Donnycreek holds a 50% working interest in all lands, wells and facilities on a
16.75 section block in the Kakwa area, except for the 13-17-63-5 W6M Well where
the Company holds a 25% working interest plus 10% GORR before payout, 50%
working interest after payout.


Kakwa 14-2-63-6 W6M (the "14-2 Well")

Adjoining the Company's 16.75 section Kakwa block discussed above, Donnycreek
holds a 23.75% working interest in two additional sections. Donnycreek
participated in the 14-2 upper Montney natural gas well that was tied-in in the
fourth quarter of 2013 but was shut in for substantially all of November and
December 2013 due to the operator's infrastructure restrictions. The 14-2 Well
re-commenced production in January 2014 to help best determine a go-forward
production strategy once a longer term performance profile has been developed
and evaluated.


Donnycreek is a Calgary based public oil and gas company which holds
approximately 438 gross (313 net) sections of petroleum and natural gas rights,
with an average working interest of approximately 70%, prospective primarily for
Montney liquid rich natural gas resource development all of which are located in
the Deep Basin area of west-central Alberta.

"believe", "plans", "intends" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing,
this news release contains statements concerning the timing of the hydraulic
stimulation of the 1-26 Well, the timing of the tie in of and production from
the 16-25 Well and the 15-30 Well, the drilling of the Company's ninth
horizontal well, the drilling and completion of two Kakwa horizontal wells from
a multi-well pad and the primary prospective zone for development on the
Company's lands.


Forward-looking statements are based on a number of material factors,
expectations or assumptions of Donnycreek which have been used to develop such
statements and information but which may prove to be incorrect. Although
Donnycreek believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking
statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on them because
Donnycreek can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since
forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very
nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Further, events or
circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted
as a result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other
factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including, without
limitation: whether the Company's exploration and development activities
respecting its prospects will be successful or that material volumes of
petroleum and natural gas reserves will be encountered, or if encountered can be
produced on a commercial basis; the ultimate size and scope of any hydrocarbon
bearing formations on its lands; that drilling operations on its lands will be
successful such that further development activities in these areas are
warranted; that Donnycreek will continue to conduct its operations in a manner
consistent with past operations; results from drilling and development
activities will be consistent with past operations; the general stability of the
economic and political environment in which Donnycreek operates; drilling
results; field production rates and decline rates; the general continuance of
current industry conditions; the timing and cost of pipeline, storage and
facility construction and expansion and the ability of Donnycreek to secure
adequate product transportation; 

future commodity prices; currency, exchange and interest rates; regulatory
framework regarding royalties, taxes and environmental matters in the
jurisdictions in which Donnycreek operates; and the ability of Donnycreek to
successfully market its oil and natural gas products; changes in commodity
prices; changes in the demand for or supply of the Company's products;
unanticipated operating results or production declines; changes in tax or
environmental laws, changes in development plans of Donnycreek or by third party
operators of Donnycreek's properties, increased debt levels or debt service
requirements; inaccurate estimation of Donnycreek's oil and gas reserve and

increased costs; a lack of adequate insurance coverage; the impact of
competitors; and certain other risks detailed from time-to-time in Donnycreek's
public disclosure documents. Additional information regarding some of these
risks, expectations or assumptions and other factors may be found under in the
Company's Annual Information Form for the year ended July 31, 2013 and the
Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis prepared for the year ended July
31, 2013. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this
news release are made as of the date hereof and Donnycreek undertakes no
obligations to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required
by applicable securities laws.


In this news release the calculation of barrels of oil equivalent (boe) is
calculated at a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet (6 mcf) of natural
gas for one barrel (bbl) of oil based on an energy equivalency conversion
method. Boes may be misleading particularly if used in isolation. A boe
conversion ratio of 6 mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion
method primarily applicable to the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current
price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from
the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be
misleading as an indication of value.


NEITHER THE TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE NOR ITS REGULATION SERVICES PROVIDER (AS THAT
TERM IS DEFINED IN THE POLICIES OF THE TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE) ACCEPTS
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS NEWS RELEASE.
