Bloom Reserves

2 November 2009

Nostra Terra is pleased to announce the results of the Bloom reserves report.

The Company's Bloom property and wells are located in the Chase-Silica Field.
This field has in the past produced over 280,000,000 barrels of oil since its
discovery in 1930. Highlights of the recent reserve summary on the wells, in
which NTOG has a 50% working interest, include:

2,260,800 BBLS oil potential gross proved reserves (projected net
attributable reserves to NTOG's working interest of 1,019,290 BBLS);
1,096 MMCF gas potential gross proved reserves (projected net attributable
reserves to NTOG's working interest of 494 MMCF);
the report excludes any probable and possible reserves; and
the present value of the property attributable to NTOG, at a 10% discount
factor, is US$ 23,775,570 (based on oil @ US$70.00 per barrel and gas @ US$4.50
per MCF).

"The results of the reserves report on the Bloom property more than double our
current reserve base while providing a great opportunity for cash flow for the
Company,' said Matt Lofgran, CEO of Nostra Terra. "The increase in reserve base
should also provide the Company with a more diversified portfolio of production
assets in the future."

The technical information in this announcement has been prepared and approved
for release by W. A. Alexander Jr. of W. A. Alexander, Jr. Oil & Gas Consulting.
He is a qualified person as defined in the Note for Mining and Oil & Gas
Companies, June 2009, of the London Stock Exchange.

American Petro-Hunter Completes #24-1 Double H Well -- Prepares for January Oil and Gas Production at Rooney, Kansas

SCOTTSDALE, AZ--(Marketwire - December 15, 2009) - American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH) ("American Petro-Hunter" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that the completion program at the #24-1 Double H Oil Well on the Rooney Project is now finished and the well is being readied for full scale oil production.

The well was perforated and swabbed at hourly rates of oil flow in keeping with the Company's original estimates of over 200 barrels per day. The down-hole reservoir pressures have remained strong and steady producing excellent quality 44 degree oil which will sell at top dollar to oil purchasers in the area. Consequently, the Company believes that based on the completion results and recent seismic data, the find represents a significant discovery well in a new reservoir at Rooney.

Natural gas associated with the pay zone will necessitate the installation of a gas separator and hook-up to a gas pipeline located less than 1 mile away. Currently, the gas flow is estimated at between 70 to 80 MCF per day which will generate additional income from the well.

Rods are being positioned in the well and site preparations begin tomorrow for the construction of the tank battery, mounting of the pump-jack and installation of gas lines for hook up. The Company and operator plan to expedite all arrangements towards the commencement of full scale commercial oil and gas production currently slated for January 1, 2010.

The completion results confirm the projected Initial Production Rates (I.P.R.) with a possibility of exceeding those estimates. Final production rates will be based on the needs of the reservoir in order to maintain pressures and integrity. Daily production rates will be fully established once production has commenced and actual barrels of oil produced to the tanks are calculated.

About the Rooney Project:

The Rooney Project is located in southwestern Ford County, Kansas 20 miles due south of Dodge City and totals 5,120 acres adjacent to the north edge of existing Morrow Sand oil and gas production. The initial discovery well, #24-1 Double H is anticipated to begin production at rates over 200 barrels per day. After a review of the 3D seismic data in conjunction with the electronic logs, the potential barrels of oil associated well and oil pool is currently estimated at 500,000 barrels. The Company and partners have developed a minimum of 5 target locations to drill that could enable the Company to add 5 additional wells to its portfolio by the end of the third quarter of 2010. The operator of the project is S&W Oil & Gas, LLC of Wichita, Kansas.

Low-btu gas in the US Midcontinent: A challenge for geologists and engineers

Sep 14, 2009
By K. David Newell, Saibal Bhattacharya, and M. Scott Sears

Considerable unexploited resources of natural gas in the US have been largely bypassed due to unacceptable levels of associated nitrogen (N2), which lowers heat content.

Natural gas that is laden with other common impurities such carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and heavier hydrocarbons typically has less of a problem accessing local markets because of the relative ease in which these components can be removed.

Nitrogen separates from natural gas with more difficulty, but as a result many domestic production opportunities have been shunned by generations of producers.

One such fairway of bypassed low-btu gas (nominally, gas with heat content <950 btu/standard cu ft) is in central and southern Kansas. The authors' premise is that small-scale and mobile nitrogen-removal systems, when coupled with good resource evaluation, can reap considerable reward with only small investment.

Substantial geologic and well-test data from wells in this region indicate possible, probable, and proved reserves of heretofore unsellable low-btu gas that can be explored and produced with varying degrees of risk.

Low-btu gas can be an unrecognized resource. Some of it can be utilized at the wellsite for powering pumps that tap oil zones or for onsite or sales-to-grid electrical generation by microturbines, but much of it is left behind pipe if its relative flow rate prohibits it from being blended with a higher-btu gas.

A successful exploitation endeavor will require judicious adherence to "fiscal proportionality," whereby early-stage nitrogen removal will succeed only when project costs are in line with project revenues. Pressures and rates of production must be diligently quantified in order to select the type and size of upgrading asset.

Recent advances in small-scale nitrogen removal are now providing a means for upgrading low-btu gas in these areas of Kansas that have frustrated gas producers since the early days.

Trends in gas quality

Low-btu gas in Kansas is found in a variety of reservoirs of varying age and in fields ranging in size up to giant Hugoton gas field.

Kansas produces 36 million bbl/year of oil and 370 bcf/year of gas, mostly from Mesozoic and Paleozoic strata. Giant Hugoton gas field in southwestern Kansas accounts for 53% of the current gas production in the state. Significant gas production elsewhere in the state is also associated with strata immediately overlying and subcropping beneath the basal Pennsylvanian angular unconformity.

Low-btu gas in this part of the Midcontinent is primarily caused by high percentages of nitrogen and subsidiary helium. Argon and CO2 can also be present, but they commonly compose less than 0.5% of the total gas.

From Credo (oil company in central kansas uplift......Central Kansas Uplift--On the Central Kansas Uplift, CREDO has drilled a wildcat well on a 2,150 gross acre seismically defined prospect. Production pipe has been set through the Lansing-Kansas City formation. The well is classified as a "tight hole", meaning that detailed information is not being released for proprietary business reasons. CREDO owns an 85% working interest in the prospect and is the operator. Development drilling is scheduled.

CREDO currently owns 139,000 gross (65,000 net) acres located on the Central Kansas Uplift and is continuing to expand its acreage position in both Kansas and Nebraska. To date, the company has participated in drilling a total of 32 wells on the acreage, of which 47% have been successfully completed as oil producers. Well depths range from 3,500 to 4,000 feet and drilling costs are moderate.

"Our drilling success on the Central Kansas Uplift continues to be outstanding," Huffman said. "In addition to providing good diversification to our other drilling activities, this project is 100% oil and will improve the balance between oil and natural gas in CREDO's reserve base. We expect the play to make a major contribution to our reserve and production growth."

acre Pool\Proffitt prospect. Electric logs and drilling and completion data indicate that the Chester, Mississippian and Hunton formations are commercially productive. The company owns a 50% working interest and is the operator.

The Hunton formation is the deepest productive zone and contains 13 feet of highly porous and permeable dolomite. After perforation and acid breakdown, the Hunton zone kicked-off flowing. During the final 24-hour test, the well produced 535 barrels of oil and an estimated 1.0 to 2.0 MMcfg (million cubic feet of gas). Shut-in casing and tubing pressures are 2,600 psi, indicating virgin bottom-hole pressure. The well is currently shut-in for installation of production equipment.

In addition to the Hunton formation, the company plans to perforate and produce over 150 feet of Mississippian formation and 35 feet of pay with excellent porosity in the Chester formation. However, because the Hunton zone flowed oil at high rates with virgin pressure, completion of the up-hole zones will be delayed in order to more fully evaluate the Hunton zone potential.

James T. Huffman, CEO, stated, "It is very unusual for a well to flow oil from a depth of 9,300 feet. The high production rate indicates outstanding reservoir permeability and porosity as well as excellent pressure." Huffman further stated, "Our Pool-Proffitt prospect has multiple productive intervals in the Hunton, Mississippian, Chester, Inola and Red Fork formations which we estimate will require 10 to 12 wells to fully develop."
