COMPANY UPDATE

International oil and gas exploration, development and production company,
Range Resources Limited ("Range" or "the Company") is pleased to provide the
following update across a number of its international interests.

Georgia

Range is pleased to announce that the hole to 700m has been opened up to 17 1/
2" with the 13 3/8" casing successfully cemented to the depth of 700m. The
blowout preventer ("BOP") is currently being fitted after which the rig will
shortly resume drilling with a target total depth of approximately 3,500m
expected to be reached in mid/late September.

The Mukhiani Well is targeting the Vani 3 prospect which has the following
estimated undiscovered stock tank oil-in-place ("STOIIP"):

Vani 3 Prospect - STOIIP (MMbbls)

                                     P90            P50           P10           Mean

Gross (100%)                         41.7           92.7          178.2         115.2

Net Attributable to Range (40%)      16.7           37.1           71.3          46.1

The recently completed geochemical helium survey undertaken by Range confirmed
the suitability of the first drill location with oil exploration and
development prospectivity complementing the earlier seismic work completed on
the target.

Texas - North Chapman Ranch

Range is also pleased to announce that the Company remains on track to commence
the two well program on the North Chapman Ranch prospect in October 2011, with
the Albrecht well to be drilled in the east south east portion of the license
area with the second well location currently being finalised. With the Smith #1
and Russell-Bevly wells located in the north-west corner of the license area,
assuming success on the Albrecht well alone, the Company would expect a
significant re-classification of the current P2 & P3 (Probable & Possible)
reserves into the P1 (Proved) and P2 (Probable) categories. 

In  addition  to  the  Howell  Height  formation  that  the  Smith  #1  and
Russell- Bevly  wells are currently  producing  from,  the  Albrecht  well  is
also  targeting  multiple  shallower targets. The shallower objectives are
known to produce within or on trend with our license area.

Texas - East Texas Cotton Valley

Operations have resumed on the Company's Ross 3H horizontal well after fluid
samples from the well were recently collected and analyzed. The Ross 3H was
drilled with significant oil shows and strong evidence of oil saturation from
core data but experienced a high pressure salt water flow near the end of its
nearly 3,500 ft. lateral section.  Range and its partners will continue to
perforate and test additional sections of the lateral. If successful, the Ross
3H could set up a multi-well horizontal development program to exploit the
shallow oil reservoir there.

The Company will look to provide an update on the Trinidad operations shortly
and will continue to look to provide regular operational updates on its
portfolio of assets

For and on behalf of the Board

Peter Landau - Executive Director

Range Background

Range Resources Limited is a dual listed (ASX: RRS; AIM: RRL) oil & gas
exploration company with oil & gas interests in the frontier state of Puntland,
Somalia, the Republic of Georgia, Texas, USA and Trinidad.

  * In Trinidad Range recently completed the acquisition of a 100% interest in
    holding companies with three onshore production licenses and fully
    operational drilling subsidiary. Independently assessed gross recoverable
    3P reserves in place of 6.9 MMbls (on a mean 100% basis) with an additional
    20 MMbls of prospective resources.
   
  * In the Republic of Georgia, Range holds a 40% farm-in interest in onshore
    blocks VIa and VIb, covering approx. 7,000sq.km. Currently, Range has
    recently completed a 410km 2D seismic program with independent consultants
    RPS Energy identifying 68 potential structures containing an estimated 2
    billion barrels of oil-in-place (on a mean 100% basis) with the first of
    two exploration wells having spudded in July in 2011.
   
  * In Puntland, Range holds a 20% working interest in two licences
    encompassing the highly prospective Dharoor and Nugaal valleys with the
    operator and 45% interest holder, Africa Oil Corp (TSXV: AOI) planning to
    commence the two well programme in 2011 (targeting (on a mean 100% basis)
    300mmbls and 375mmbbls of best estimate gross recoverable oil in place)
    following the recent awarding of the rig contract.
   
  * Range holds a 25% interest in the initial Smith #1 well and 20% interest in
    further wells on the North Chapman Ranch project, Texas. The project area
    encompasses approximately 1,680 acres in one of the most prolific oil and
    gas producing trends in the State of Texas. Drilling of the first well has
    resulted in a commercial discovery with independently assessed gross
    recoverable reserves in place (on a mean 100% basis) of 240 Bcf of natural
    gas, 18 mmbbls of oil and 17 mmbbls of natural gas liquids.
   
  * Range holds a 21.75% interest in the East Texas Cotton Valley Prospect in
    Red River County, Texas, USA, where the prospect's project area encompasses
    approximately 1,570 acres encompassing a recent oil discovery.
    Independently assessed gross recoverable reserves in place (on a mean 100%
    basis) of 5.4 mmbbls of oil.
