CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Jan. 30, 2009) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Second Wave Petroleum Inc. ("Second Wave" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SCS) is pleased to announce that it has agreed to a non-brokered equity financing with Brookfield Bridge Lending Fund Inc. ("Brookfield") pursuant to which Brookfield will subscribe for a minimum of 5,757,575 common shares at an issue price of $0.66 per share for gross proceeds of $3,800,000. The shares will be issued on a "flow through" basis with proceeds used by the Company to incur eligible Canadian Development Expenses during 2009.

Concurrently with the Bookfield financing, Second Wave intends to complete a non-brokered financing with certain management and insiders for up to an additional 285,714 common shares at a price of $0.70 per share for additional gross proceeds of up to approximately $200,000.

Closing is scheduled to occur on or about February 20, 2009 and is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including settlement of definitive documentation and the receipt of all necessary approvals (including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange).
