Completes Acquisition of Niobrara Oil & Gas Project



Irvine Energy plc, the AIM listed oil and gas exploration company, has completed
the acquisition of the Niobrara oil and gas project situated in Kansas, USA.



The Niobrara project comprises 4,490 acres of oil & gas licences in north-west
Kansas. The Company's working interest will be 50%. The area includes 20 well
bores completed in the Niobrara Formation of which 13 tested at 50 Mcfd each.
All 20 wells will be put on line in late summer early autumn at a cost of
approximately US$0.5 million. The total projected production from the twenty
wells is 1,000 Mcfd, of which 500 Mcfd will be net to Irvine.



A further 80 well locations have been delineated for expansion and it is
estimated that 24 will be completed by year end 2008, with an additional 56
wells to be drilled in 2009. These wells are shallow, circa 1,500 ft, and can be
drilled and completed in less than one week at low cost.



The Niobrara play in north-west Kansas has been extremely active, with Berry
Petroleum recently acquiring over 400,000 gross acres around Irvine's area of
mutual interest. This further underpins the management's belief of the
prospectivity of the area.



As announced on 16 July 2007, the Company's unaudited estimate of the net
attributable reserves of the Niobrara project is: Proven ('1P') 2 BCFE; Probable
('2P') 9 BCFE and Possible ('3P') 9 BCFE. Further work will focus on upgrading
the reserves to the proven category.



The Company continues to undertake due diligence on the remaining assets
described in the announcement of 16 July 2007 and the Board currently expects to
complete the acquisition of them by 15 October 2007.



The information contained in this announcement was completed and reviewed by the
Managing Director of Irvine Energy plc, Mr Aaron Close, who has over nine years
experience as a geoscientist in the North American oil and gas sector, and is a
graduate from the Colorado School of Mines Golden with a Bachelor of Science,
Mathematics and Computer Science Engineering and Geophysics. Mr Close is a
member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers.



All reserves statements in this announcement have been prepared in accordance
with the Society of Petroleum Engineers Petroleum Resource Management System for
Reserves 2007

('Irvine' or 'the Company')



Completes Acquisition of Bearden Prospect Area of Oklahoma Oil & Gas Project



Irvine Energy plc, the AIM listed oil and gas exploration company, has completed
the acquisition of a 50% working interest in 4,167 acres of oil and gas leases
in Oklahoma, USA, known as the Bearden Prospect Area, for a consideration of
US$625,026.



The Bearden Prospect Area forms part of the Oklahoma oil and gas assets that
Irvine has contracted to buy from Metro Energy, subject to due diligence and
arrangement of necessary finance, as announced on 16th July 2007. The Directors
consider the Bearden area to be highly prospective for oil and gas, and this
acquisition follows the completion of the acquisition of the Niobrara oil
project in Kansas, in October. The Company continues to undertake due diligence
on the remaining Oklahoma assets described in the announcement of 16th July and
will report on these in due course.



Irvine Managing Director, Aaron Close, said, 'We are pleased to have completed
the acquisition of the Bearden acreage, which is in an area attracting strong
leasing activity, given its multiple conventional reservoirs and stacked oil
pays. Work continues on the development of our portfolio, which now comprises
over120,000 gross acres across Kansas and Oklahoma, and we look forward to
providing an update on the positive progress made in the near future.'

Irvine Energy says seismic survey identifies multiple drill targets in Kansas

Kansas Project Update - Butler and Cowley Counties



'Multiple targets identified following successful seismic programme'



Irvine Energy plc, the AIM listed oil and gas exploration and production
company, has identified multiple drill targets adjacent to the historically
highly productive Blood and Cooley fields in Kansas, following the completion of
an eight square mile 3D seismic survey. The survey is the first of four to be
completed totalling approximately 50 square miles, which are being shot to
identify structures in south central Kansas, where Irvine owns a 75% interest in
112,000 acres of oil and gas licences.



The 3D seismic survey was shot across three known field areas in south central
Kansas along the Nemaha Uplift in Butler and Cowley counties. The Blood and
Cooley fields have produced 250,000BBL of oil from the Mississippian, and
additional 225,000BBL of oil from the Kansas City/Lansing and Arbuckle
formations.



Initial drilling targets are being finalised by Irvine's partners, Metro Energy
Group, with drilling planned to commence in December/January.



Irvine Managing Director Aaron Close said, 'The results of the 3D seismic survey
have exceeded our expectations, showing multiple oil prospective drilling
targets adjacent to the existing oil fields. The structures identified are
relatively shallow, which means that drilling costs should be low. The seismic
programme is focused on identifying drilling targets and increasing production,
whilst building our P1 and P2 reserve base.'

Completes acquisition of US Oil & Gas Leases

Irvine Energy plc, the AIM listed oil and gas exploration and production
company, has completed the acquisition of a 50% working interest in a further
27,337.2 gross acres of oil and gas exploration and production leases in
Oklahoma for a cash consideration of US$5,529,500 and unsecured loan notes of
US$4 million.

The transaction completes Irvine's acquisition of oil and gas assets from its US
partner Metro Energy announced on 16 July 2007, which was subject to due
diligence and arrangement of necessary finance. The latest leasehold acquisition
follows those announced on 3 September 2007, 8 November 2007 and 18 December
2007 and brings the Company's total portfolio of oil and gas exploration and
production leases to 167,000 gross acres across Kansas and Oklahoma.

Irvine Managing Director Aaron Close said, 'The deal with Metro has enabled us
to rapidly accelerate our development, expand our land position, and provides us
with low cost oil and gas production and exploration targets within highly
prospective and proven oil and gas regions. This is a very positive beginning to
2008 especially as we have reached all our current acquisition targets on
schedule and entered the production phase of our development.

'Moving into the New Year we plan to devote our attention to increasing our
production levels and P1, P2 and P3 reserve estimates through our recompletion
and ongoing drilling programmes which are being conducted in conjunction with
Metro. Our portfolio consists of conventional reservoir and shallow oil and gas
plays as well as unconventional shale targets which have already proven their
economic potential in Texas and Oklahoma. Our portfolio has significant
potential, our activity level is high, and our development profile rapid. We
look forward to providing an update on our progress later this month.'

The loan notes have been issued by Pinon Energy LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Irvine, to Metro Energy. The loan notes are repayable on 10 April 2008 and
will bear an interest rate of 10% per annum on the outstanding principal. The
loan notes will be secured by a mortgage over the production assets.

Irvine Energy Completes Its Land Acquisition Programme In Kansas And Oklahoma And Starts Thinking About Oil And Gas Production And Reserves Build Up
Given the success of Nighthawk Energy and Meridian Petroleum in exploiting low cost/low risk gas accumulations in the US, it is worth keeping a beady eye on fellow London AIM-listed Irvine Energy now that it has got all its acreage ducks in a row.

The company has recently announced that it has completed the acquisition of a 50 per cent working interest in a further 27,337.2 gross acres of oil and gas exploration and production leases in Oklahoma for a cash consideration of US$5.5 million and unsecured loan notes of US$4 million.

This completes the acquisition of oil and gas assets from its US partner Metro Energy announced in July 2007 and brings the companys total portfolio of oil and gas exploration and production leases to around 167,800 gross acres across Kansas and Oklahoma.

It means the company can now get on with producing from its low cost oil and gas wells within highly prospective and proven oil and gas regions, as well as build up its reserves.

In southern Kansas an Area of Mutual Interest (AMI) was designated covering 7 million acres. This includes many small leases including so-called Mom and Pop leases. Irvine has acquired a 75 per cent working interest in oil and gas assets covering 112,000 acres. Metro Energy holds the other 25 per cent.

As many as 12 conventional production intervals have produced in the area at depths of between 1,500 5,000 feet (500 to 1,525 metres), with three (Arbuckle, Mississippian and Pennsylvanian) being prolific.

Importantly the AMI also houses the highly prospective Chattanooga Shale formation. Shale gas, due to the development of new extraction techniques, is the USs fastest growing onshore energy sector. There is an opportunity to exploit both conventional and non-conventional plays.

In Oklahoma the company now has the 50 per cent interest with Metro in 52,000 acres in oil and gas leases. Again the acreage contains the proven Woodford Shale and Caney Shale as well as multi stacked conventional reservoirs. The Oklahoma project will ultimately provide up to 400 unconventional drilling locations and up to 150 conventional drilling locations.

Also the company has acquired a 50 per cent working interest in the Niobrabra project which is a shallow gas play. The Niobrabra project is primarily focused on the exploration of conventional gas plays. The licence area includes 20 completed well bores with 13 tested at 50,000 cubic feet a day each. Total projected production from 20 wells is 1 million cubic feet a day. Irvines net production is 850,000 cfde but this is expected to increase rapidly to 2 million cfde with an intensive drilling programme. In south Kansas the immediate emphasis is on proving up reserves. There has been production before but no 3D seismic. This is now in train to firm up 3P reserves to at least 2P. It is hoped Irvine will be entitled to book 2P reserves of 48 bcfe with a further 100 bcfe of P3 hopefully to be firmed up to 2P, and 220 bcfe of contingent reserves in various stages of appraisal and development. Going into 2008 Irvine has a 60 well programme underway.

The point is that gas prices are high in the US and infrastructure widespread. As other juniors have shown, known deposits can quickly be monetised and a good cash cow established.

MUMBAI (Thomson Financial) - Irvine Energy PLC said it has started production within its 162,000 acre portfolio of onshore conventional and unconventional oil and gas projects in the US.

'At our current rate of development, we aim to be producing in our three areas of operation by April,' said managing director Aaron Close.

The AIM listed oil and gas exploration and production company also said its net production for January was 6.973 mln standard cubic feet of gas and 76 bln barrels of oil, from 18 wells in Oklahoma.

The total gas production for the month of January stood at 7.973 mln standard cubic feet.

Initial well locations have been identified in Kansas targeting the Arbuckle and Mississippian formation in the highly prospective Cooley oil fields and drilling is planned to start at the end of February, the company said.

The first gas sale from its Niobrara project is expected in March, the company added.
