Highlights - NXT signs US $1.1 million SFD(R) survey contracts with Kerogen Exploration - Contract covers two resource plays in the continental USA

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Nov 27, 2013) - NXT Energy Solutions Inc. ("NXT Energy" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SFD)(NSFDF) announces that it has signed contracts with a new client, Kerogen Exploration LLC ("Kerogen"), to conduct two pilot SFD® surveys in Texas and Florida, USA, totaling US $1.1 million.

Kerogen is a private company financed by Riverstone Holdings LLC, and operates in Texas and Florida, holding 100,000 acres in Texas in the Permian Basin and 125,000 acres in the South Florida basin. Murray Grigg, Kerogen's President and CEO noted "We are pleased to apply this new technology to our unconventional play effort".

George Liszicasz, NXT's President & CEO noted "This is a great opportunity to build our presence in the USA, as well as build on our prior shale basin experience in North America. We are pleased to add Kerogen as a new client to our expanding customer base, and to have the opportunity to conduct these pilot surveys to explore for both traditional and resource plays. We look forward to working with Kerogen to become an integral part of their future on-shore and off-shore exploration programs."

NXT Energy continues its efforts towards finalizing the terms of other near-term survey opportunities in Central and Latin America and will seek to co-ordinate the timing of the Kerogen surveys as soon as practical in conjunction with one of these other potential projects.
