Where Great Ideas Become Reality

All monetary amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated
This presentation contains certain “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” under applicable Canadian securities laws concerning the business, operations and financial performance and condition of Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to estimated production and reserve life of the various oil and gas projects of Pacific Rubiales; synergies and financial impact of completed acquisitions; the benefits of the acquisitions and the development potential of the properties of Pacific Rubiales; the future price of oil and natural gas; the estimation of oil and gas reserves; the realization of oil and gas reserve estimates; the timing and amount of estimated future production; costs of production; success of exploration activities; and currency exchange rate fluctuations. Except for statements of historical fact relating to the company, certain information contained herein constitutes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are frequently characterized by words such as “plan,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “anticipate”, “estimate” and other similar words, or statements that certain events or conditions “may” or “will” occur. Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management at the date the statements are made, and are based on a number of assumptions and subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Many of these assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of Pacific Rubiales and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct. Factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from results anticipated by such forward-looking statements include changes in market conditions, risks relating to international operations, fluctuating oil and gas prices and currency exchange rates, changes in project parameters, the possibility of project cost overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses, labour disputes and other risks of the oil and gas industry, failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated, acquisitions not being integrated successfully or such integration proving more difficult, time consuming or costly than expected as well as those risk factors discussed or referred to in the annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Annual Information Form for Pacific Rubiales filed with the securities regulatory authorities in all provinces of Canada and available at www.sedar.com. Although Pacific Rubiales has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Pacific Rubiales undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s estimates or opinions should change except as required by applicable securities laws. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Statements concerning oil and gas reserve estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements to the extent they involve estimates of the oil and gas that will be encountered if the property is developed. Comparative market information is as of a date prior to the date of this presentation.
Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

– Indefinite term with ability to take 3rd party oil
Benefits of ODL pipeline
– Allows the Rubiales field to produce to its potential
• 170,000 bbl/d capacity – for transport to end markets
• Potential to add compression for expansion to 300,000 bbl/d
– Reduces transportation costs from $15/bbl to $7/bbl
Timeline
– Completed on time and on budget, meeting market expectations
– Pipeline is 100% complete / Pumping Station 90% complete
– Inaugurated on September 14, 2009
ODL pipeline is crucial to the future development of the Rubiales and Quifa fields and other exploration activity in the Llanos Basin
