Sunridge Energy Corp.: Drilling Completed on the North Central Oil Project

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 20, 2012) -Sunridge Energy Corp. ("SRG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SRG) is pleased to announce that the drilling operation has been completed successfully, on time and within budget. Production casing has been run and testing will commence after spring-break up and road restrictions are lifted.

The zone of interest was cored, recovered successfully, and will be analyzed prior to completion. Pre-lab analysis observations of the core are very positive.

ABOUT NORTH CENTRAL OIL PROJECT

The property consists of 2,320 acres comprised of crown and freehold leases that are 100% controlled by Sunridge Energy. Based on the results of this exploration program thus far, the company will proceed with additional short-radius horizontal wells to test the target formation in the Upper Mannville sandstone. Total drilling distance per well is anticipated to be 1,500 - 1,800 metres (measured depth).

ABOUT SUNRIDGE

Sunridge is a junior oil and gas exploration and development company with production operations in the Province of Alberta. The recent acquisition of the 6-Phase Oil Heating proprietary technology gives Sunridge an unprecedented opportunity to extract extensive potential reserves of heavy oil (bitumen) at shallow depths in the Alberta Oil Sands. The Sunridge assets are structured to decrease operation costs, enhancing shareholder value.

On behalf of the board,

Dwayne Tyrkalo, Chief Executive Officer
