(firmenpresse) - RIMOUSKI, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 07/16/13 -- Petrolia (TSX VENTURE: PEA) is pleased to announce that Gildas Collin will be joining the Petrolia team as head of operations on October 1, 2013. His appointment underscores the company's strategy to pursue development of the Haldimand oil field in Gaspe and implement a broad exploration program to assess the potential for oil production on Anticosti Island.

During his career he has acquired a wealth of experience in key areas of oil and gas exploration and production. His practical experience in directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations combined with his in-depth knowledge of reservoir modeling, oil reserve estimation, and economic project analysis are highly valued assets for the head of operations position.
In his new role Gildas Collin will oversee all of Petrolia's field operations. Although he will be based in Quebec City, he will make regular site visits to ensure compliance with operational and safety requirements.
