Nordic’s New Gas Well at Lloydminster Being Perforated; Company Anticipates 75-100 BOES/D When on Production

Endeavour Well to Undergo Acid Squeeze by End of Next Week

For Immediate Release     

WINNIPEG, Manitoba - (July 5, 2011) – Donald Benson, Chairman and CEO of Nordic Oil and Gas Ltd. (the “Company” or “Nordic”), is pleased to announce that the Company’s 9-4-50-3 W4 natural gas well at Lloydminster – as announced on April 7, 2011 – is being perforated today at intervals 599 – 600.5 metres and 616.5 – 617 metres. It is expected that the perforations will be completed on Wednesday and the well will be on production shortly thereafter.

“When on production, we anticipate this well will produce in the area of 75 to 100    BOEs *  per day,” Mr. Benson stated.

Furthermore, Nordic also obtained a seismic option for the oil rights to this particular section. “Over the next few weeks, we plan on acquiring trade data or perhaps shoot new seismic, or do both,” Mr. Benson said.

“We are very pleased with this new acquisition and believe that in addition to natural gas production, this could very well lead to substantial heavy oil development in the not-to-distant future for Nordic Oil and Gas,” Mr. Benson added.

With regard to Nordic’s well at Endeavour, Saskatchewan, Mr. Benson stated that the Company is still being plagued by the wet conditions on the site of the lease, but he anticipates the acidization job will be undertaken next week: “We had one of our consultants out to the lease on the weekend and he found the property to be two-thirds under water. 

“We have now drained most of the lease and are currently pumping off the remaining water,” he added. “However, due to the saturation level, we have been advised that it will take about a week of dry weather after the lease is pumped off in order for us to be able to get the equipment in to do the job.  As such, we are currently planning on doing the job by the end of next week.”
