During the second quarter, production averaged 763 mcfe/day net to the Company, generating sales of $0.8 million. The majority of this production is from the Company's gas production in Hungary, where prices for the quarter averaged $11.90 per mcfe.  The production decrease from the first quarter is mainly due to natural production declines from the PEN-105 well in Hungary. Net production averaged approximately 700 mcfe/day in July, 2011. Gas prices continue to be strong in Hungary where the July 2011 price was approximately $13.00 per mcfe.

In Tunisia, the Company continues to move forward with the planning of a 3D seismic survey over its Bouhajla North prospect, one of three prospects identified to date on the Bouhajla Permit, located onshore in the Pelagian Basin.

DualEx Energy International Inc. is an oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in the greater Mediterranean area. DualEx's common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "DXE".

Where amounts are expressed on a thousand cubic feet equivalent (mcfe) basis, one barrel of oil has been converted at a ratio one barrel of oil to six thousand cubic feet.  Mcfe's may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.  A mcfe conversion ratio of one barrel of oil to six thousand cubic feet is based on an energy equivalent conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
