CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 6, 2006 -- Powder River Basin Gas Corp. (OTC BB:PRVB.OB - News), a revenue generating producer, acquirer and marketer of crude oil and natural gas properties, today announced an update on the Weesatche Field project in Goliad County, Texas.

Due to heavy rainfall the development of the two Stumfoll wells was postponed to work on wells in higher locations. The Elizabeth Justen #1 well was drilled to 4100 feet and logged eight pay zones on June 4, 2006. Two of the zones have tested flowing pressures of 1100 psi and 1073 psi respectively on June 5. Currently production casing is being cemented and completion will commence this week.

Pressure is substantially higher than the J.P. Green #1, which is currently producing 1600 mcf per day.

The Dohman #1 likewise has multiple pay zones to 3700 feet, seven of which appear very prolific, however test results are not available at this time. Production casing is in the hole and completion operations will commence this week.

The drilling rig is setting up on the next location and Powder River Basin Gas Corp. plans to spud in by the end of the week.

"We are very pleased with the rapid progress we are making on this project, and are extremely excited with the results of our drilling to date. We are executing on our vision for the Company's oil and gas production and with the current high price of natural gas, each well will greatly contribute to our cash flow," stated Powder River Basin Gas Corp. CEO, Brian Fox.

Powder River Basin Gas Corp. is active in production, acquisition, and marketing of crude oil and natural gas properties.

Powder River Basin Gas Corp. trades on the OTCBB under the symbol PRVB.
