ENERMAX FEATURED IN JPT ONLINE

On December 11, 2008 one of our primary industry partners, EnerMax, Inc of Hurst, Texas was featured on JPT Online magazine, the official publication of the Society of Petroleum Engineers. JPT is reporting on EnerMax's newest seismic imaging technologies, GeoMax and StrataMax, which promise greater than 80 percent accuracy in finding reserves. These technologies were instrumental in helping Permian and EnerMax on the recently successful West Janice #1 project.

The following is the full text of the JPT article which can also be found online here.
New Technologies Promise Pinpoint Accuracy For Permian Reserves

11 December 2008 in JPT, Reservoir (RDD), US/Canada

Texas-based independent producer EnerMax recently announced the successful spudding of Permian basin wells using two new technologies that aim to increase the likelihood of pinpointing sizable oil reserves. The proprietary technologies, called GeoMax and StrataMax, promise greater than 80 percent accuracy in finding reserves in parts of the Permian that were previously not considered commercially viable.

According to the company, the technologies represent an advance in filtering techniques for seismic data that better identify major oil-deposit areas that had previously eluded detection. GeoMax is a filtering process that allows more accurate drill grids to be created that indicate where and where not to drill, while StrataMax reportedly helps identify specific signatures for locations in a reservoir that are likely to contain oil but were previously thought to be noncommercial.

The technologies were used together in the spudding of the West Janice #1 well in November. The West Janice #1 project, which was drilled seven miles west of 19 previously drilled wells that produced in excess of 26 million barrels of oil, was an 11,500 ft vertical test of the Wolf Camp formation and first and second porosity sections of the Devonian formation. The prospect was generated using 2-D and 3-D seismic data reprocessed with GeoMax and StrataMax.

At a depth of 9,000 to 9,530 ft, the Wolf Camp XX formation was perforated on 13 November 2008, showing a live reservoir charged with good pressures. EnerMax technical advisors estimate that the zone will achieve production rates of 250-300 barrels of oil per day. In addition, it is estimated that the first and second porosity sections of the Devonian formations are capable of producing in excess of 600,000 barrels of oil. According to EnerMax, this discovery is especially important because the second porosity section of the Devonian had not previously been identifiable with traditional geological and geophysical models.

EnerMax states that these technologies will help significantly reduce the frequency of drilling nonproductive, or dry, holes. In a recent case study, EnerMax ran data for a well-developed oil field that has been a prolific producer for decades. Their findings indicated that if the GeoMax grid had been available during the time the field was developed, it would have correctly predicted the most prolific producers as well as the areas that turned out to be noncommercial with an accuracy of above 80 percent. Because the technology was not available, the area was drilled using a hit-or-miss approach, which resulted in a high number of noncommercial wells being drilled.

"Each one of the zones tested prove that we have encountered a Devonian and Wolf Camp formation that is oil saturated," explained Bret Boteler, founder and president of EnerMax. "Field averages indicate that this well bore is capable of producing 1.2 million barrels of oil over its life."

"At a time where exploration costs remain extremely high and prices are seesawing in a very volatile manner, it is especially critical to push technology to the max to make better-informed decisions about where to drill," Boteler continued. We expect that these new filtering processes will virtually eliminate undesirable projects so that our capital can be allocated towards prospects with considerably higher probabilities of success."

Following the successful completion of West Janice #1, the West Janice #2 test well was spudded on 24 November 2008 and results are forthcoming.

PARTNERSHIP WITH EVANS ENERGY E2

Permian Asset Management, AVV Officially Announces Their Partnership With Evans Energy (E2)

www.evansenergyonline.com

In our continuing effort to partner with the best of the best within the Oil and Gas Industry, Permian Asset Management, AVV has cemented their partnership with Evans Energy (E2) of Laurel, MS.

Oranjestad, Aruba September 20, 2008-- "Most independent oil companies must contract their drilling to unaffiliated third parties that have no vested interest in hitting the well. Many drillers receive bonuses for how fast they finish a well. An environment like that can create havoc on sensitive areas down hole and can ruin an otherwise strong prospect," commented Permian's spokesperson. "With Evans Energy as a partner, we can be assured that great care will go into drilling our wells. We know Lavon Evans personally and know that he will treat our wells like his very own."

With experience and capital like that, Permian is very fortunate to have E2 on its team as its preferred driller, and Permian Asset Management, AVV is now a Featured Partner of E2.

:: About Evans Energy (E2) ::


Through generations of experience, E2 has developed, drilled, and/or produced hundreds of wells across the country. Being a strong independent Evans Energy has its own rigs and can mobilize them at any time and to almost any location.

Evans Energy takes enormous pride in their drilling teams and rigs. With a "safety first" attitude their Rig Managers and Hands are all highly motivated professionals dedicated to the success of every prospect.

:: Their Philosophy ::


As a child Lavon Evans was greatly influenced by his grandfather who taught him the value of hard work and respect for everyone. Lavon's grandfather owned a small country store that became the foundation of Lavon's entrepreneurial spirit and work ethic. Evans Energy is today the result of that development of work, pride and fair play.

:: Their Goals ::


Evans Energy (E2) knows success is a team effort and not merely a cliche. The Evans team is always focused on the prize of a successful well and a financially successful operation. With over 400 commercial wells under their belt, they have succeeded in establishing processes that are proven and profitable. E2 will continue to leverage past successes in order to develop new opportunities in all areas of the company's services which include exploration, operation and "contract" drilling.

:: Their Strategy ::


Evans Energy utilizes years of drilling and operating experience to intelligently select those prospects with the most potential for commercial success. Evans Energy is continuously reviewing and streamlining all areas of the company with the objective of increasing efficiencies and enhancing profitability.

:: Where They Have Been ::


S. Lavon Evans, Jr. founded and created S. Lavon Evans, Jr. Operating Company, Inc. in January of 1989 and the rest, as they say is history. The company has a rich history of hundreds of successful wells across Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Louisiana and Texas. From pioneer wildcatting in the Black Warrior Basin to the swamps of South Louisiana and the wide open spaces of South Texas, Lavon built his company along with a reputation of honesty, hard work and a knack for knowing a good prospect. Lavon is a true "oilman" and his company is true Oil & Gas. Today, the company Lavon founded has evolved to become Evans Energy.

Evans Energy considers itself to be a hydrocarbon hound dog. Lavon and his team have seen literally thousands of prospects. Experience has taught them to recognize some of the most subtle geological problems that can determine a well's success or failure. There are a lot of "so-so" prospects out there and finding the best risk vs. reward opportunity only comes through practical experience and trusted advice. They are not newcomers. Their years of doing business in the "oil patch" have created lifelong friendships that are priceless business allies and prospects that are creme de la creme.

Sincerely,

Management

SMART OIL GOES TO PERMIAN BASIN

XTO Energy Buys Oil Fields From Exxon Mobil for $215 Million


FORT WORTH - XTO Energy of Fort Worth added to its Permian Basin oil properties, spending $215 million to buy several fields in Crane, Glasscock and Ector counties and in eastern New Mexico from Exxon Mobil Corp.

The deal is XTO's second purchase of older Exxon Mobil fields. Last year, XTO paid $342 million for properties in the Permian Basin in Gaines and Yoakum counties.

XTO will try to double the field's production of 2,400 barrels per day by refracturing and reacidizing, as well as by new water-flooding and liquid-carbon-dioxide injections.

XTO said it hoped to increase production by 25 percent during the next two years. The fields have proved reserves of 21 million barrels of oil.

This transaction highlights our ongoing focus in acquiring specific properties in regions where XTO has experience and a history of increasing production and reserves," said Bob Simpson, XTO's chairman.

The sale by Exxon Mobil is part of the multinational's strategy to withdraw from older fields in the United States in favour of newer plays overseas.

"Producing properties in Texas tend to be older and more costly to produce," Exxon Mobil President Rex Tillerson said at the company's annual meeting in May. "In many cases, buyers can produce them more profitably, and it becomes prudent for us to get value for our shareholders by selling."

That strategy has cost Exxon Mobil its long-standing position as Texas' largest producer. In 1994, Exxon and Mobil, then separate companies, together produced 55 million barrels of oil, leading second-place Amoco Production by 10 million barrels.

In 2004, Exxon Mobil was the No. 4 crude oil producer in Texas, with 13.4 million barrels.

But the decline hasn't hurt its stock price. Both companies saw rises after the announcement. XTO was up $1.50, closing Tuesday at $36.73, a 52-week high. Exxon Mobil closed at $60.14, up $1.83.

The Permian Basin properties represent a shift in emphasis for XTO, which during the 1990s built a strong natural gas franchise in East Texas and Louisiana, as well as in the Plains states and New Mexico. In Texas, XTO was the state's third-largest natural gas producer and the ninth-largest oil producer in 2004.

The Permian Basin fields acquired include the Vacuum Field in Lea County, N.M., and the Cordona Lake Field in Crane County, Texas. Other fields in the package include the Goldsmith in Ector County, the St. Lawrence in Glasscock County, and the Blanco in Rio Arriba County, N.M.

LIVE VIDEO STREAM

Permian Asset Management,AVV and EnerMax, Inc. are excited to inform their partners that drilling operations of the Permian and EnerMax, Inc. West Janice project will be broadcast live via video stream direct from the drill site and derrick of the West Janice Project, and then, all future Permian Projects that are forthcoming. This is all a part of Permian and EnerMax, Inc.'s continuing efforts to remain at the forefront of the oil and gas industry, fulfill their mission, and to bring in better results time and time again.

WEST JANICE #1 COMMERCIALLY VIABLE

I received wonderful news from our Joint Venture Partner, EnerMax today that we encountered our first productive reservoir at West Janice #1, the San Andres. Please read what EnerMax Inc President Bret Boteler has to say about the progress being made over at West Janice #1.

Partners,

I have some very good news!

Last night at approximately 9:00 PM CST, we encountered our first productive reservoir, the San Andres. The top of the reservoir was encountered at 5,145’. The primary section of the reservoir extended to 5,220'. Within this section we experienced a high percentage (up to 80% fluorescence). We had a streaming oil cut and oil in the pits. The maximum gas kick was 143 units. We also experienced an increase in our rate of penetration (ROP). It appears that we have a commercially productive reservoir with approximately 75' of pay.

In addition to the primary showing discussed above, there is also a secondary showing which ranges from 5,220' - 5,300'. Within this section we had 20-50% fluorescence and a maximum gas kick of 231 units of gas. There are several good porosity streaks within this section that should be commercially productive as well.

The San Andres is a very prominent reservoir within the PermianBasin. The wells can produce at rates of 100 BOPD and have a life of 30-40 years. They will typically produce on average 50,000 - 100,000 barrels of oil out of each well bore. You certainly don't drill a 12,000' well to produce at 5,250', however it's nice to know that we have a reservoir in place that will recoup our investment dollars, even if the Wolfcamp and Devonian are non-commercial. However, this discovery gives us great confidence that the Wolfcamp and Devonian will also be productive in this area.

The best part of this discovery is that it solidifies 3-5 offset locations that can be drilled specifically to 5,250' to generate a nice return on investment. As of this morning, we have begun the process of acquiring additional acreage in the area to protect our holdings.

I have enclosed a copy of the mud log and most recent drilling report for your review.

The top of the Wolfcamp formation should be 8,600 TVD (true vertical depth) and 8,710 MD (measured depth). It will be another 7-10 days of drilling before we reach this depth. We are deviating our well bore approximately 800' which requires the use of directional tools and consequently slows down the drilling process. The well bore is being deviated so that we penetrate the Wolfcamp and Devonian formations at the most prominent location.

I will keep you posted as information becomes available from the field.

Soak up the good news and enjoy your weekend!

Regards,

Bret Boteler

President
