Cub Energy Inc. ("Cub" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:KUB) a Black Sea
region-focused upstream oil and gas company, announces the Makeevskoye-17
("M-17") exploration well has commenced drilling. The M-17 well is operated by
KUB-Gas LLC ("KUB-Gas"), a partially-owned subsidiary in which Cub has a 30%
ownership interest through its 30% shareholding of KUBGas Holdings Limited. 


The Company also updates its operations on the Rusko-Komarovsky-22 ("RK-22")
well. The RK-22 well is operated by Cub and the Company has a 100% working
interest in the well. 


Makeevskoye-17 Well

The M-17 well will be drilled as a vertical well with a planned total depth
("TD") of 3,450 metres. The M-17 well is an appraisal well and will be drilled
within the same structural closure as the M-16 discovery well, which is located
approximately 1 kilometre to the southeast. The well will appraise the
productive S6 sandstone currently producing in the M-16 well, and also in the
O-15 well, where it is producing from a separate structure within the Olgovskoye
field. Additionally, the M-17 will target the S5 limestone also encountered in
the M-16 well. The well is expected to take approximately 85 days to reach total
depth.


In 2014, the Company plans further appraisal and development of the M-16 well's
discoveries in the Serpukhovian zone with the planned M-15 and M-18 wells. The
S5, S6 and S13 formations will be targeted with the drilling of the deep M-15
well and the S5 and S6 formations further targeted in the M-18 well. The M-15
well will be located approximately 1 kilometre southeast of the M-16 and the
M-18 well will be located approximately 2 kilometres southeast of M-16 location.



Rusko-Komarovsky-22 Well

The Company is preparing to log the RK-22 well in the Middle Miocene Sarmatian L
series and D1 through D3 series of sands. If logging indicates commercial
amounts of natural gas in the L and D series sands, Cub expects to revise the
planned TD of the well to 1,125 metres with results of completion operations
expected prior to year-end 2013. 


Notes to Editor:

Makeevskoye-16 Well

The Makeevskoye-16 ("M-16") is the deepest well drilled on the Makeevskoye
Licence to date. M-16 was drilled to a TD of 4,300 metres in the third and
fourth quarters of 2012 and subsequently tested gas from the S6 zone at a
maximum rate of 4.3 MMcf/d (1.3 MMcf/d net to Cub's 30% interest). Based on
petrophysical analysis of the M-16 well's open-hole logs, the S5 appears to be
hydrocarbon charged with 6 metres of gas pay. The M-16 well was tied-in for
commercial production in June 2013 and current production from the S5 zone is
more than 3.4 MMcf/d (more than 1.0 MMcf/d net to Cub's 30% interest).
