HOUSTON, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 03/08/15 -- Rockdale Resources Corporation (OTCQB: BBLS) (the "Rockdale") today announced that David N. Baker has stepped down as Chief Executive Officer and from our board of directors, effective February 28. As a result, Leo Womack has been elected to succeed Mr. Baker as Chairman of the Board and Zel C. Khan appointed CEO and President of the Company.
