---------------------------
This announcement amends the Sugarloaf Well Testing Update announcement
submitted to RNS on 21 February 2007 at 9:15am with RNS number 6033R. The need
for amendment arose as the original announcement contained two minor
typographical inaccuracies.
AIM quoted Empyrean Energy PLC today announces that the first part of the
testing program over the lower Hosston interval has been completed by
perforating several zones. As per the program design, these zones were not
fracture stimulated and no flow of gas was recorded. These zones were not
fracture stimulated as they were interpreted to have poorer reservoir
development than some of the zones in the upper Hosston sands - however they
were perforated to make certain that they were not productive.
As envisaged in the original testing program, the next stage will involve the
perforation and fracture stimulation of selected intervals of the upper Hosston
sands which are interpreted to have better potential reservoir development as
compared to the lower Hosston intervals. The fraccing program is currently
scheduled to commence in early March.
Further releases in relation to the Sugarloaf-1 testing program will be made
upon any material developments and results from these tests.
The information contained in this announcement was completed and reviewed by the
Technical Director of Empyrean Energy Plc, Mr Frank Brophy BSc (Hons) who has
over 40 years experience as a petroleum geologist.
