THE UNITED STATES


New West Energy Services Inc. (TSX VENTURE:NWE) ("New West" or the
"Corporation") announces its previously announced proposed acquisition of
Terralog Technologies Inc. ("TTI") (the "Acquisition") has been postponed. The
Acquisition, which includes TTI acquiring sole ownership of its subsidiary, PT
Terralog Teknologi Indonesia, was approved by the Corporation's shareholders at
its annual and special meeting on October 27, 2008. However, due to market
conditions, the Corporation has not been able to complete the $6.6 million
private placement of common shares of New West prior to November 28, 2008,
completion of which financing is a condition precedent to closing of the
Acquisition. New West and TTI are currently negotiating an extension to the
financing and the Acquisition and will issue a follow-up press release once the
terms of such new agreement have been agreed upon, or in the event the proposed
transaction is terminated.


The proposed transaction remains subject to certain other conditions, including
receipt of all required regulatory approvals.

a leading international service company that specializes in petroleum
geomechanics and deep well disposal waste management using slurry fracture
injection technology. PT TTI, has its head office in Jakarta, Indonesia.


TTI has been in operation for approximately 8 years. It has gained international
prominence working through PT TTI for the past 4 years in connection with a long
term contract disposing of production wastes at the Dun oilfield in Sumatra,
Indonesia.


TTI is also currently working under contract in Bergen, Norway providing
technical and engineering support for 5 offshore CR1 disposal wells in the North
Sea.


TTI has made significant business development inroads with other international
concerns that TTI anticipates will start field operations in the future. While
these projects are in various stages of discussions, it must be noted that final
approvals have not yet been given for these projects, and operating agreements
have not been negotiated for these projects.


In addition, TTI is involved in the development of Carbon Capture and Storage
CO2 technology.
