) announced today the results of an independent reserves report (the "Report") for part of the McCully natural gas field located near Sussex, New Brunswick Sussex (2006 population: 4,241) is a Canadian town in Kings County, New Brunswick.

Sussex straddles the Kennebecasis River, 70 km northeast of Saint John. History
. The Report assesses the quantity and value of Corridor's working interest share of the proved, probable and possible reserves in a portion of the McCully field encompassing the McCully A-67, P-66, K-57 and D-48 wells. Please refer to the McCully field map (see link below) showing the three fault blocks assessed in this Report. The combined geological, reservoir engineering and economics Report was conducted by APA (All Points Addressable) Refers to an array (bitmapped screen, matrix, etc.) in which all bits or cells can be individually manipulated.

The Report estimates that the current proved ultimate gas recovery for the portion of the field evaluated is 18 billion cubic feet (bcf), or 9 bcf net to Corridor. The proved reserves are limited to those that can be accommodated within the existing gas contract with Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan The Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan, today generally referred to as PotashCorp, is a Canadian corporation based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan that is the world's largest producer of potash.

The company was created by the government of Saskatchewan in 1975.

This radio spectrum in the 1. ).Production to date is 0.8 bcf gross, or 0.4 bcf net to Corridor. The probable and possible reserves are associated with future gas export via a pipeline connection to the Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline. Assuming that the gas pipeline connection is initiated (in 2006), APA forecasts that between 120 bcf (proved and probable) and 164 bcf (proved, probable and possible) of gas could be recovered from current and future wells drilled in the evaluation area. Corridor's net share of sales gas is assessed to be 78 bcf for the proved and probable case, and 107 bcf for the proved, probable and possible case.

APA has assessed the value of Corridor's share of the three reserves categories based on both constant costs and prices and forecast costs and prices. Based on cost data provided by Corridor, APA has assessed that the export case appears to be economically attractive and has assigned both proved and probable reserves against this development assumption. The results are presented as follows:
Net Present Value
Working Interest           Price                ($mm@10%DCF)
 Reserves Case             Case           Before Tax    After Tax

(107 bcf sales gas case)   APA Forecast        162          111



APA states that, in their opinion, "...the key technical uncertainty that will drive the profitability of the export scheme is completion efficiency. Particularly, optimized stimulation design may significantly improve the reserves and economics associated with the further development of the McCully field".APA cautions, however, that because the reserves data are based on judgements regarding future events, actual results will vary and the variations may be material. The full APA Report is available for review in Corridor's offices and on Corridor's website (www.corridor.ns.ca).

A positive test would be encouraging, as the Chaloupe structure is large and seismic shows the presence of many more similar prospects on the Island. Corridor and Hydro-Quebec hold 75% and 25% working interests respectively in the Chaloupe licence area and Corridor is the operator.
