Armada Oil, Inc. says that the drilling of the Bear Creek #1 in Carbon County, Wyoming is ongoing. The depth required to comply with the provisions of the Anadarko Farmout agreement has turned out to be deeper than the pre-drilling geo-prognosis suggested and drilling of the deeper part of the well has been challenging.

In addition, the drilling schedule was delayed a few days due to a coring tool being stuck in the hole, As a result, the schedule for completion of the drilling phase has slipped and will likely take another week to ten days. We will provide a comprehensive update when we are finished drilling and have the appropriate data.
