Dynamic Updates Development and Exploration Activity.Business Editors RICHMOND, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 18, 2003 Dynamic Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Dynamic") updates the following exploration and development initiatives in central Alberta Central Alberta (also named Alberta's Heartland) is a region located in the Canadian province of Alberta. Central Alberta is the most densely populated rural area in the province. Agriculture and energy make up an important part of the economy. and northeastern British Columbia British Columbia, province (2001 pop. 3,907,738), 366,255 sq mi (948,600 sq km), including 6,976 sq mi (18,068 sq km) of water surface, W Canada. Geography . We are pleased to report that at the close of our second quarter ending June 30, 2003, our daily average production rate increased over that of our first quarter by 563 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) or 16%, to approximately 4,000 boe/d. Capital expenditures and exploration expense (cap-ex) spending activity is on track toward meeting our 2003 budget. Our cap-ex budget includes the drilling of up to 20 wells, 13 in Alberta and seven in British Columbia. Of the 13 Alberta wells, we have now completed four re-entries at St. Albert St. Albert could refer to:
St. Albert, Alberta St. Albert is a city in Alberta, located northwest of Edmonton, on the Sturgeon River. It was originally settled as a French Catholic community, and is now an affluent suburb. - Since our last update, two oil well re-entries into the Leduc "A" pool have been placed on stream at rates of approximately 140 and 800 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Production rates from our 00/06-25 oil well announced on September 16, 2002 has been set at approximately 400 bopd to allow for pool optimization. Total daily average production from the Leduc 'A' pool is approximately 1,400 bopd. We are using modern directional drilling Directional drilling (sometimes known as slant drilling outside the oil industry) is the science of drilling non-vertical wells. Directional drilling can be broken down into three main groups: Oilfield Directional Drilling, Utility Installation Directional Drilling (commonly and advanced 3-D seismic technology to optimize existing well bores and minimize surface impact in the area. To further develop remaining oil potential in the Leduc and Nisku pools, four more wells are planned in the latter half of 2003, subject to on-going regulatory processes. Recent efforts to maximize production from the low-pressure Ostracod gas zone have been successful. Two wells were drilled under-balanced, resulting in a combined initial test rate in excess of 3.0 million cubic feet per day (mmcf/d). Currently these wells are being tied in and we are evaluating compression requirements to maximize production. We operate the St. Albert property and own a 75% working interest in the natural gas and crude oil reserves Oil reserves refer to portions of oil in place that are claimed to be recoverable under economic constraints. Oil in the ground is not a "reserve" unless it is claimed to be economically recoverable, since as the oil is extracted, the cost of recovery increases incrementally . Halkirk, Alberta Halkirk is a village in central Alberta, Canada. It is located km ( mi) east of Red Deer. It was named for Halkirk, Scotland. It is the birthplace of Shane Doan, a Canadian professional ice hockey forward playing in the NHL for the Phoenix Coyotes. - Two new infill in·fill n. 1. The use of vacant land and property within a built-up area for further construction or development, especially as part of a neighborhood preservation or limited growth program. 2. wells are planned for Halkirk in the third quarter of 2003. Current production from the area is approximately 1.4 mmcf/d and is expected to increase to 2.2 mmcf/d with the infill drilling. We operate the Halkirk property and own a weighted average working interest of 95% in the natural gas production. Wimborne, Alberta - During the second quarter of 2003, we drilled two test wells, casing one as a potential Cretaceous-aged natural gas well and abandoning the other. Our plans are to acquire additional lands in the latter half of 2003 and drill another well. We own a 100% interest in approximately 8,320 acres of petroleum and natural gas rights at Wimborne. Orion, NE British Columbia - Drilling operations on our b-13-A well were completed in the second quarter of 2003. We drilled a 2,187 metre horizontal well to test for natural gas potential in the Jean Marie Jean Marie may refer to:

Two of the five wells drilled in the fourth quarter of 2002 have now been tied in and are producing in excess of 3.5 mmcf/d of natural gas (1.75 mmcf/d net to Dynamic), and the other three wells are expected to be tied in for 2003 winter delivery. The drilling of six more wells is planned in the latter half of 2003 and lease-building operations are presently underway at the site of the first well. We own a weighted average working interest of 34% in the area lands.
