Operations Update
17 June, 2016

U.S. Oil & Gas Plc.

U.S. Oil & Gas Plc, the oil and gas exploration company with assets in Nevada, makes the following announcement:

Data collection for a Vertical Seismic Profile (VSP) study centred on the Eblana #1 well is nearing completion. The survey was conducted by Halliburton, one of the world’s largest oilfield service companies, and included walkaway and walkaround VSP.

In addition, new Gravity and near-surface Geochemical data have been acquired in two separate surveys. Along with the VSP results these data will allow further development of the geophysical and geological models of the area around Eblana #1 in preparation for re-entering the well and drilling operations.

The Company will now concentrate on data processing and analysis in order to develop the 3D Earth model. The refined model will then be utilized to assist in the planning for re-entry and possible side-tracking of the Eblana #1 well. Data processing, analysis and integration is expected to take several weeks.

U.S. Oil CEO Brian McDonnell said:

‘We are delighted with progress on the ground at Hot Creek Valley. The quality of the data collected appears to be excellent, and we anticipate that our geophysical model and the identification of future drilling targets will be significantly enhanced by this effort. Processing, analysis and modeling now begins and will involve Halliburton working together with our technical team to produce the clearest possible picture of our target structures.’
