CALGARY, Oct. 24, 2013 /CNW/ - Advantage Oil & Gas Ltd. ("Advantage" or the "Corporation") announced today that its lenders have completed their regular semi-annual review of the credit facility borrowing base. Advantage's borrowing base will increase from $230 million to $300 million and continue to provide significant financial flexibility in support of future capital program requirements and general corporate purposes. The increase resulted from recognition of Advantage's strong third quarter 2013 average production at Glacier estimated at 110 mmcfe/d, increased proven developed producing reserves and strong natural gas commodity hedge positions. Advantage's bank indebtedness was approximately $140 million as of September 30, 2013.

Our current Phase VI capital development program at Glacier is targeted to increase production to 135 mmcfe/d by Q2 2014. Advantage's next regular annual review of its credit facility borrowing base is scheduled for June 2014.
