Enegi Oil PLC provides the following update on its Western Newfoundland activities.

Alan Minty, CEO and Chairman of Enegi Oil commented,"Whilst disappointed that it has not been possible to complete the objectives of the farm out with BSE we recognise the problems of concluding investment for large scale plans in the current climate. We have known for a long time that more careful management of investment risks, expectations, delivery timeframes and costs are required in the current economic environment in the oil and gas sector. Most importantly, though, our plans are based on utilising information and existing licences to attract future staged investment to achieve realistic and relatively short-term goals. The plan, which we refer to as Early Field Development Plan, is based on similar principles as underpin the marginal field initiative, which is to assess the value of prior investment not just as a sunken cost, but as a means to develop confidence in future outcomes. It is the continuing subsurface assessments that create and re-affirm our confidence in the region. We look forward to providing further updates as we progress the EFD plan."
