EL1070 Update

The Company is pleased to note the announcement issued by Shoal Point Energy ("SPE") on 17th January 2012 that they have reached an agreement with NWest Energy Corp. to acquire a 100% interest in all the rights in EL1079R, which covers the extent of the Green Point Oil-in-Shale in the northern half of western Newfoundland offshore area.

In the same announcement, SPE also indicated that cased-hole operations continue at its Shoal Point 3K-39 location with this stage of operations, which will prepare the cased borehole for sidetracking (3K-39z) and deepening of the well expected to last 7-10 days. The announcement indicates that SPE are working diligently to finalise all approvals for the deepening and testing of the well, and they expect that all approvals will be forthcoming.

Alan Minty, CEO of Enegi Oil Plc., commented:

"Further studies are required to assess the significance of the Green Point Shale on our acreage in PL2002-01. However, the action taken by SPE is a positive indication to us of the potential of the play. We are also pleased to note that operations are progressing well at the 3K-39 location and look forward to further announcements over the coming weeks."
