May 30 , 2008 NEWS RELEASE
Drilling Continues at First Preeceville Well
For Immediate Release
WINNIPEG, MB. (May 30, 2008) - Donald Benson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nordic Oil and Gas Ltd. (“Nordic” or, the “Company”), today announced that drilling is continuing at the first well site at Preeceville, Saskatchewan. Canada.
“As of earlier today, we are at approximately 450 metres and drilling is proceeding at a pace of about 10 metres per hour,” he said. “They are drilling through limestone and it is moving a little more slowly than anticipated.
“Furthermore, as we go deeper, the expectations are that drilling will be even slower. As such, we anticipate that it will be another few days before the well is completed.”
Once drilling is completed the well will be logged and cased. Thereafter upon completing interpretation of the logs, perforating of the well would take place.
