CONCORD, Ontario – February 6, 2009–

Epsilon Energy Ltd (TSX: EPS) ("Epsilon" or the "Company"), is pleased to provide an operations update on its Hwy 706 project in the Marcellus shale in Pennsylvania, where it is the operator and holds a 100% working interest.

The Company has completed a five stage packer’s plus completion utilizing a large slickwater frac with various sand concentrations on a 2,200 foot lateral on the Larue 2H. On a stabilized rate, the Larue 2H flowed natural gas at a rate in excess of 4.2 MMcf/d. The Larue 2H is the third well of seven wells drilled to date on the Highway 706 project. The eighth well in Epsilon’s drilling program, the Hardic 2H, is currently underway and is being drilled horizontally. Previously the Company announced production tests resulting in stabilized rates of over 3 MMcf per day from the Larue 1H (drilled horizontally) and over 1 MMcf per day from the Larue 1A (drilled vertically).
