EMPIRE SEISMIC CHALLENGER



Empire has also negotiated the use of a 70-foot ship for planned future off shore seismic exploration once final approval has been received for SEL 13/2009 from Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT). Empire CEO Malcolm Bendall said, "Empire is pleased to add these new offshore seismic capabilities to the company operations." This has been coordinated through wholly owned subsidiary Great South Land Minerals (GSLM) in Tasmania. The ship, named "RV Challenger" will display corporate logos and the words "Empire Seismic Challenger." The ship is powered by a 500HP engine and will be equipped with state-of-the-art navigation equipment. It also has a 300HP hoist engine with a 150HP reserve backup motor suitable for hydraulic cable drum operations in seismic line placement and recovery. Empire plans to have pictures of the ship available for viewing on the Empire website shortly.

This news follows our recent announcement of signing the "Back to Site Agreement" with Hunt Energy drilling in preparation for the commencement of our onshore drilling program beginning at Bellevue No. 1. These new developments, along with the substantial body of work performed by Empire and Great South Land Minerals over the past ten years, demonstrate Empire's continuing commitment to oil and gas operations in Tasmania and Empire's readiness to move forward in its efforts to discover and develop onshore and offshore Tasmanian oil and gas potential once final approval of the new leases has been received from Mineral Resources Tasmania.

The Final Report on Special Exploration License 13/98 documenting all expenditures and work done over the history of the License has been printed and is set for mailing to Empire Shareholders.

Drilling has been scheduled by others in northern Tasmania, based on interpretation of Empire 2001 seismic information. Any indications of the presence of hydrocarbons at the northern sites will be considered validation and positive for Empire. Previously the sites had been dropped from Empire license area in favor of the several better defined larger structures identified by Empire such as Bellevue and Thunderbolt.

Empire has identified fifteen onshore structures believed to be capable of containing substantial commercial quantities of oil and gas. Special Exploration License SEL 13/2009 contains an additional 12,000-square-kilometer area, most of which is over the shallow water shelf just off the east coast of Tasmania. Seismic operations over water represent only 1/10^th of onshore costs which typically cost US $10,000.00 per line kilometer and are therefore considered quite economical. The planned offshore seismic operations are expected to provide valuable additional information for the exploration efforts of Empire, further confirming our belief that the line of structures continue offshore as previously indicated by seismic work performed in Storm Bay.

Empire believes that previous seismic work in Storm Bay suggest likely structures that would represent significant additions to the many onshore structures already identified by Empire. These shallow water locations contained within SEL 13/2009 are potentially capable of containing substantial commercial quantities of oil and gas.
