TWIN BUTTE ENERGY LTD ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC OIL ACQUISITION AND ENHANCED
GUIDANCE FOR 2011

CALGARY, Nov. 25 /CNW/ - Twin Butte Energy Ltd. (TSX: TBE) ("Twin Butte" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement to purchase conventional heavy oil producing assets primarily in the Frog Lake area of North Eastern Alberta. The assets which include wells and associated production facilities are currently producing approximately 500 bbls per day of oil. The purchase price net of standard closing adjustments is $19.5 million and it is anticipated that the acquisition will close before the end of November.

The acquisition includes 10.2 gross (10.1 net) sections of crown land and operated production in the Frog Lake area directly adjacent to Twin Butte's existing Frog Lake operations. These lands are entirely covered with 3 dimensional seismic which is included with the acquisition. Twin Butte has identified numerous recompletion opportunities and a minimum of 50 drillable locations on the lands. Twin Butte's estimates proven and probable reserves associated with the acquisition are 1.4 million boe's based on internal evaluation as at October 1, 2010.

Twin Butte intends to finance the acquisition from its existing corporate credit facility which post closing the transaction is anticipated to be increased from its current $120 million to $128 million. Year end 2010 net debt pro-forma the acquisition is anticipated to be approximately $96 million.

The acquisition is consistent with Twin Butte's growth strategy as it expands a repeatable play type at Frog Lake where Twin Butte has demonstrated considerable success over the past year having grown production from 1,100 boe per day to currently in excess of 2,600 boe per day through development drilling. Acquired fluid handling and water disposal infrastructure will aid Twin Buttes ongoing cost reduction strategy at Frog Lake.

Pro-forma the acquisition, Twin Butte anticipates 2011 average corporate production of 8,000 boe per day with a 2011 exit rate of 8,500 boe per day. It is anticipated that corporate oil and natural gas liquids will continue to increase as a percentage of production from its current 55 percent to 64 percent by the end of 2011. Based on $US80 per bbl WTI and a $3.50 AECO gas price, cash flow is estimated to hit a record $55 million for 2011, providing the financial flexibility to complete a planned capital program of $55 million. It is anticipated that 2011 year end net debt will be approximately $96 million representing 1.5 times Q4 2011 annualized cash flow. Twin Butte plans to drill 100 gross (60 net) wells in 2011 with an emphasis at Frog Lake where approximately 90 gross (50 net) wells are planned.

Twin Butte is a value oriented junior producer with a significant repeatable and scalable drilling inventory focused on large original oil in place and large original gas in place play types. With a stable low decline production base the Company is well positioned to live within cash flow while providing shareholders with sustainable growth potential over both the short and long term. Twin Butte is committed to continually enhance its asset quality while focusing on per share growth.

In this news release, reserves and production data are commonly stated in barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") using a six to one conversion ratio when converting thousands of cubic feet of natural gas ("Mcf") to barrels of oil ("bbl") and a one to one conversion ratio for natural gas liquids ("NGLs" or "ngls"). Such conversion may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl is based on energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
