) has completed the acquisition of two additional oil and natural gas fields This list of natural gas fields includes major fields of the past and present.

 in Texas. These two acquisitions are consistent with Canyon Creek's business model for acquiring proven oil and natural gas reserves.

The acquisitions include a 40-acre lease in Young County, Texas, and a 369.65-acre lease in Starr County, Texas Starr County is a county located in the U.S. state of Texas. In 2000, its population was 53,597. Its county seat is Rio Grande City6. The county is named for James Harper Starr who served as Secretary of the Treasury of the Republic of Texas. . The lease in Young County has one well, the #2 Prideaux, completed as a gas well in the Marble Falls formation at 4800'. The lease in Starr County has four oil wells completed in the "J" Sand oil reservoir An oil reservoir, petroleum system or petroleum reservoir is often thought of as being an underground "lake" of oil, but it is actually composed of hydrocarbons contained in porous rock formations.  at 4,100'.

Funding for these acquisitions was provided by UPDA.

"The #2 Prideaux well is important because it adds gas reserves to our portfolio at a time when gas prices are over $12.00 per mcfg," says Canyon Creek President Donald Orr.

"The 369-acre lease in Boyle Field adds significant 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
 in a proven oil field. We estimate 1,200,000 barrels of oil can be recovered by implementing water flood procedures. Sufficient well control, favorable reservoir properties, and excellent production history coupled with a compact, limited stratigraphic stra·tig·ra·phy

 lens make this oil field an ideal candidate for secondary recovery via water flood," says Orr.

Continental Oil Company, predecessor to ConocoPhilips, completed 15 of the 21 total wells that penetrated the "J" sand oil reservoir in the Boyle Field.

Initial production of the wells completed in the "J" sand averaged 100 bopd on a 10/64" choke. Upon completion, the gas-oil ratios ranged from 341 cubic feet of gas per barrel to 2390 cubic feet per barrel. The total oil cumulative from the Boyle Field equals 1,259,675 barrels of oil.

The Company projects it will need to expand the field to ten wells during the next twelve months to develop the oil reserves. Canyon Creek projects oil production to reach 1,000 barrels of oil per day when the lease is fully developed. The cash flow value to the Company discounted at 10% is estimated over $27 million per year.

Canyon Creek Oil & Gas Inc. was formed in July 2005 as a joint venture corporation for the purpose of acquiring currently producing oil and gas properties, low risk drilling prospects and existing wells in need of state-of-the-art technology to improve profitability. Canyon Creek Oil and Gas Inc. has over 60 wells located on more than 2,000 acres in the Fort Worth basin. In addition to the new acquisitions detailed above, the Company has also acquired properties located in Inez Field in Victoria County and Giddings Gas Field in Fayette County, Texas Fayette County is a county located in the U.S. state of Texas. As of 2000, the population was 21,804. Its county seat is La Grange6. Fayette is named for the Marquis de la Fayette, a French nobleman who became an American Revolutionary War hero. . Canyon Creek continues a drilling and revitalization program on all of its properties in order to improve production and bring more wells on line.
