FIELD ACTIVITIES / Range Petroleum Corp. Drilling Agreement

MIDALE, Sask., March 30 /CNW/ - Range Petroleum Corporation
VSE: 'RAN'
Range Petroleum Corporation announces that it has entered into a drilling
option agreement with Renata Resources Inc. covering Range's 100% working
interest lands in the Trossachs (Midale) area of southeastern Saskatchewan.

Under the agreement, Renata et al will drill the well ''Renata DBM Abbott
4-24-7-17 W2M'' to a minimum depth sufficient to penetrate the Ordovician
Formation estimated 2,500 metres subsurface. The Renata DBM well directly
offsets Range's 100% held sections 13 and 14, which form part of the company's
3,520 gross (2,720 net) acre leasehold block in this area. Range has granted
to Renata et al continuous roll-along drilling options on the entire
3,520-acre block. The first option well, if drilled, would commence no later
than 120 days following rig release date on the Renata 4-24 test well.
Subsequent option wells would be drilled at not greater than 90-day intervals.

Renata has licensed the 4-24 test well as 2,800-metre Deadwood test.
Drilling commenced on March 18, 1998. Further information on Renata's test
well will be restricted due to the ''tight-hole'' status designated by the
Operator.
