Biogenerics Signs Agreement to Tap Four Additional Gas Wells in California

Hydroslotting Technology to Expedite and Exploit Production Capabilities


TORONTO, Aug. 23, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Biogenerics Limited (Pink Sheets:BIGN) today announced that the Company has signed agreements on four additional gas wells in California for which exploration will begin immediately utilizing the hydroslotter abrasive hydrojet perforation technology.

The hydroslotting proprietary technology increases oil and gas production and extends commercial productivity of oil and gas by 300% to 600%. With oil recently reaching a new high of $63.40 per barrel with gas also reaching dramatic new levels, the urgency to tap the domestic market is more critical than ever before.

Hydroslotting creates a vertical permeability that does not exist in nature. As most of the natural gas rich formations in Northern California are laminated or interbedded with non-permeable rock, and often over-pressured, hydroslotting provides a particularly effective and economical method for recovering natural gas. These characteristics are optimal for hydroslotting. The four wells are all nearby the first well that Biogenerics completed in the June 2005 workover.

"Initial results of our recent drilling exceeded 1,000 mcf per day. This represents concrete evidence that the hydroslotter technology is tapping on, what was believed to be, barren and abandoned wells. Utilization of the hydroslotter technology, we must say, is one of the most prudent and fruitful business decisions that positively will impact bottom line results," stated Gary Kelley, CEO.
