TRINIDAD UPDATE

Range Resources Limited ("Range" or "the Company") is pleased to provide the
following update on its Trinidad operations, with the following highlights:

  * The QUN 141 well is currently being completed with logs indicating 160 ft. of
    gross oil pay, one of the thickest Lower Forest pay sections to be
    encountered to date;
   
  * The QUN 142 well spudded and is drilling ahead at 800 ft. and is expected to
    encounter the same well-developed oil pay as the QUN 141 well;
   
  * Planning has commenced for the possible re-activation of the QUN 16 well,
    which previously produced up to 145 bopd, to add new reserves and
    production, while further extending the Lower Forest trend;
   
  * Several production rigs to be placed back into operation within the week to
    begin remedial work on up to 20 existing wells, expected to yield an additional 
    100-150 bopd of production;
   
  * The MD 248 well continues to make steady progress towards its target depth
    having reached 5,425 ft. and encountered a `drilling break' (a sudden
    increase in the rate of penetration during drilling), associated with oil
    sands along with hydrocarbon shows, indicating a potential oil zone at
    approximately 5,000 ft.;
   
  * The Company is in the process of determining the applicability of formation
    stimulation on the QUN 135 well, designed to maximize recovery from the
    multiple pay zones, including the possibility of mini-hydraulic fracture. A 
    successful well at this location could have initial production rates of up
    to 200–300 bopd;
   
  * Operations will commence shortly on the South Quarry field following the
    recent receipt of approvals for the construction of 4 initial well pad
    locations with drilling in the area to commence end June / early July;
   
  * Within the Beach Marcelle field, the company is planning to deepen 6 wells,
    which are expected to recover up to 90,000 barrels of oil per well at costs
    significantly lower than drilling and completing new wells; and
   
  * The Company is currently reviewing multiple well completion options,
    including the use of mini-hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling,which, 
    if successful,can potentially increase initial production rates by 5 to
    10 fold. Significant economic gains can be achieved where these technologies
    can be applied in a cost effective manner.
   
Lower Forest Development Drilling

Following successful completion of the QUN 138, 139 and 140 wells, with initial
production rates of 85 bopd, 45 bopd and 90 bopd, respectively, Lower Forest
development continues with the upcoming completion of the QUN 141 well, where Rig 1
is currently conditioning the well bore prior to running casing. Open hole logs
indicate 160 ft. of gross oil pay to be perforated, one of the thickest Lower
Forest pay sections to be encountered to date.

The Company has also spudded the QUN 142 well, which has a target depth of
1,200 ft. and is currently drilling ahead at 800 ft. The QUN 142 well is
located directly east of the QUN 141 well and is expected to encounter the same
well-developed oil pay as the QUN 141 well.

As a result of the Company's recent extension of the Morne Diablo Farm Out
agreement, Range is evaluating a possible re-activation of the QUN 16 well,
which previously produced up to 145 bopd over a one week test. The QUN 16 well
was drilled and tested in 1942 and logged thick oil sands that correlate with
the Lower Forest reservoirs being completed by the Company approximately ½ mile
to the west. Re-activation of the QUN 16 well will be performed using one of
the Company's production rigs, which have recently returned to operation
following the receipt of necessary approvals. For a relatively modest cost,
Range expects to add new reserves and production, while further extending the
Lower Forest trend to the east of the QUN 16 well and establishing a large area
for low-risk infill drilling between the well and the current Lower Forest
development.

In addition to the QUN 16 well re-activation, the Company is expecting several
production rigs to be placed back into operation within the week to begin
remedial work on up to 20 existing wells, which are expected to yield an
additional 100-150 bopd of production. Depending on the type of workover
required, individual wells are estimated to require an average of 1-2 days to
perform the necessary remedial work.

Lower Cruse Formation Drilling

The MD 248 well continues to make steady progress towards its target depth
having reached 5,425 ft. and encountered a `drilling break' along with multiple
gas shows requiring mud to be conditioned properly. The shows are encouraging
as they are usually associated with oil sands consistent with the Morne Diablo
field. Drilling continues towards the proposed total depth of 6,500 ft.

Middle Cruse Formation Drilling

In its QUN 135 well, the Company is preparing a completion procedure designed
to maximize recovery from the multiple pay zones encountered in the Lower
Forest, Upper Cruse, and Middle Cruse sections, including the possibility of
perforating and producing the Upper Cruse pay zone while evaluating potential
stimulation of the Middle Cruse. As previously announced, the Company is in the
process of determining the applicability of formation stimulation in the QUN
135, including a possible mini-hydraulic fracture, which has been successful in
other fields in Trinidad. If successful, low-cost stimulation technology could
lead to higher initial production rates and greater recoveries from the
established producing horizons. Based on historical production rates seen from
the Middle Cruse formation, a successful well at this location could
potentially have initial production rates of up to 200–300 bopd, which could be
further enhanced with mini-hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.

Other Developments

South Quarry

The Company is in the final planning stages of a new development program in the
South Quarry field following the recent receipt of approvals for the
construction of 4 initial well pad locations. Operations will commence with
site construction and fabrication of equipment to support the drilling. It is
anticipated that drilling in the area will commence end June / early July.
Previous drilling campaigns have yielded higher than average rates and
recoveries due to increased geopressure in the area. Given the proximity to
established production, the South Quarry program has a high probability of
boosting production, while extending the producing trends and establishing
multiple locations for future drilling.

Beach Marcelle

With respect to the Beach Marcelle licence, environmental approvals have been
received to proceed with the deepening of 6 wells following submission of
applications earlier in the year. The Company will mobilize a production rig to
the Beach Marcelle contract area to test and prepare existing well bores in
anticipation of deepening those wells to recover Proved Undeveloped Reserves.
Within the Beach Marcelle field, successful deepening of existing well bores is
expected to recover up to 90,000 barrels of oil per well at costs significantly
lower than drilling and completing new wells.

New Technology

As part of its worldwide exploration and production program, Range continues to
evaluate exploration, drilling, completion, and production technology to
maximize recovery of oil and gas from its producing areas at the lowest cost
possible. As part of its focus on the application of new technologies, the
Company is currently reviewing multiple completion options available to it in
Trinidad, including the use of mini-hydraulic fracturing, which has been proven
successful in other parts of the country. Certain reservoirs within the
Company's license areas may also be candidates for horizontal drilling and
completion, which can potentially increase initial production rates by 5 to 10
fold. As demonstrated by their growing use in the exploitation of both
conventional and unconventional oil and gas accumulations worldwide,
significant economic gains can be achieved where these technologies can be
applied in a cost effective manner.


Yours faithfully

Peter Landau
Executive Director

SPE Definitions for Proved, Probable, Possible Reserves and Prospective
Resources

Proved Reserves are those quantities of petroleum, which by analysis of
geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to
be commercially recoverable, from a given date forward, from known reservoirs
and under defined economic conditions, operating methods, and government
regulations.

Probable Reserves are those additional Reserves which analysis of geoscience
and engineering data indicate are less likely to be recovered than Proved
Reserves but more certain to be recovered than Possible Reserves.

Possible Reserves are those additional reserves which analysis of geoscience
and engineering data indicate are less likely to be recoverable than Probable
Reserves.

1P refers to Proved Reserves, 2P refers to Proved plus Probable Reserves and 3P
refers to Proved plus Probable plus Possible Reserves.

Prospective Resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a
given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by
application of future development projects. Prospective Resources have both an
associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. Prospective
Resources are further subdivided in accordance with the level of certainty
associated with recoverable estimates assuming their discovery and development
and may be sub-classified based on project maturity.

Contingent Resources are those quantities of hydrocarbons which are estimated,
on a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations, but
which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable.

Undiscovered Oil-In-Place is that quantity of oil which is estimated, on a
given date, to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered. The
estimated potentially recoverable portion of such accumulations is classified
as Prospective Resources, as defined above.
