NEWS RELEASE
RANGE REPORTS RECORD PRODUCTION

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, JANUARY 18, 2007...RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION (NYSE: RRC) today reported that fourth quarter 2006 production volumes rose to a record high of 293.5 Mmcfe per day, a 17% increase over the prior-year period. Approximately 76% of the Company’s production in the quarter was natural gas. Production for the year averaged 276.1 Mmcfe per day, a 15% increase over 2005. Range has now posted 16 consecutive quarters of sequential production growth.

The Company also announced that its fourth quarter 2006 oil and gas price realizations (including the impact of hedging) averaged $6.56 per mcfe, representing a 4% decrease over the prior-year period and a 13% increase for the year. For 2007, approximately 80% of anticipated gas production is hedged at an average floor price of $8.11 per mcf, while 60% of 2008 gas production is hedged at an average floor price of $8.92 per mcf. For 2007, based on current futures prices and hedges in place, realized prices are anticipated to increase roughly $1.00 per mcfe versus 2006.

Commenting on the announcement, John Pinkerton, Range’s President and CEO, said, “Achieving 15% production growth year-over-year and reaching 16 consecutive quarters of quarterly production increases are outstanding results. They reflect the quality of our asset base and are a testament to the competency and diligence of our operating teams. We are very pleased to have achieved double-digit production growth again in 2006 and anticipate double-digit growth for 2007 as well. Increasing production coupled with higher realized prices is currently expected to drive record revenues, cash flow and earning for 2007.”

RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION (NYSE: RRC) is an independent oil and gas company operating in the Southwestern, Appalachian and Gulf Coast regions of the United States.
