NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. WIRE SERVICES

Petrodorado Energy Ltd. ("Petrodorado" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:PDQ) is
pleased to announce the signing of a farm-in agreement with ONGC Videsh Ltd. for
a 30 percent participating interest in CPO-5 Block of Colombia.


This 199,248 hectare block (gross) is located in the Los Llanos basin (Meta
Department) and was awarded to ONGC Videsh Ltd. in the 2008 ANH heavy oil bid
round. The CPO 5 block is flanked in the North and North West by the recent
discoveries in the blocks of Guatiquia (Candelilla Structure) and Corcel.


In 1985, Elf Aquitaine drilled Metica-1 well in the CPO-5 block, which tested
14.4 API oil and 20.8 API oil in the Los Cuervos and Barco formations. In
addition, petrophysical analysis of well logs indicated hydrocarbons in the
Carbonera, Mirador, Une and other deeper Palaeozoic horizons. 


The work plan going forward is to acquire 650 square kilometers of 3D seismic
and 240 line kilometers of 2D seismic by the end of 2010 and drill two
exploration wells in the first quarter of 2011. 


Petrodorado has identified multiple plays and multiple prospects in the Tertiary
(Carbonera, Mirador, Los Cuervos, and Barco) and Cretacaeous (Guadalupe, Gacheta
and Une) formations (14 to 40 API).


The assignment of the participating interest to Petrodorado is subject to ANH
approval. 


Comments from Krishna Vathyam, President and CEO of Petrodorado:

We are very pleased to have increased our strategic exposure to the prolific Los
Llanos basin with this highly significant acreage in partnership with ONGC
Videsh Ltd.
