TEXAS UPDATE
NORTH CHAPMAN RANCH
International oil and gas exploration, development and production company, Range Resources
Limited (Range or the Company) is pleased to announce that the fracture stimulation program
has recommenced on the North Chapman Ranch project, with the arrival on site of leading fracture
stimulation specialists Frac Tech.
The largest zone (second from top) on the Russell Bevly well is currently being fracture stimulated
with initial results looking promising. Once successfully completed, Frac Tech will move across to the
Smith #1 well and frac the upper zone, which was perforated on March 18 and this zone currently
flowing at more than 1.3 MMcfd.
Frac Tech will then move off site and look to return in the comings weeks to complete the fracture
stimulation of any remaining zones in the Smith and Russell Bevly wells.
Consistent with past fracture stimulations performed within the region, this program is expected to
add to the success of the lower two zone frac of the Russell Bevly well and further improve flow
rates and recovery, which should significantly increase cashflow from the field.
Range will provide further updates in due course.
