Quest Oil Spuds Acadia North '15-34' Gas Well


ARLINGTON, Texas, Aug. 1, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Quest Oil Corporation (OTCBB:QOIL), is pleased to announce that the Company has been informed by its operator, Transaction Oil and Gas Ventures, Inc., that drilling has commenced on the Acadia North Gas Project, Alberta. The 3,000 foot "15-34" natural gas well was spud July 31, 2005 and is drilling to the top of the Viking Sand.

Quest anticipates the drilling and casing to take approximately one week. Once production casing has been installed to depth, Quest will log and pressure test both wells for the purpose of obtaining accurate estimates of shut-in reservoir pressure, reserve size and estimating production flow rates. An Endless Tubing Unit (ETU) has been requisitioned to be on site for the completion of both wells "10-22" and "15-34." The ETU inserts the production tubing into the casing and will perforate the Viking Sand by using high pressure water and air to cut through the remaining few feet.

The main objective of the 1,280 acre Acadia North Project is the Viking Sand that has a potential reserve of 13 BCF gas. The Acadia North project is a natural gas reserve at shallow depth, short payback and long life reserves. The play is located in the "Viking Sand", the largest Viking hydrocarbon accumulation in Alberta, Canada. Quest Oil holds 100 percent working interest over the project.
