Westmont anticipates placing into production an additional 12 wells by the end of July 2011 for a total of 53 working wells. We anticipate revenue to increase to over $145,000 per month by the end of July 2011 from the production of these first 53 working wells. Upon completion of the first phase of our production program, Westmont anticipates having 170 of the 212 existing wells in production earning estimated gross revenues of $321,300 per month based on current oil pricing in excess of $90 per barrel.

These new Pennsylvania and West Virginia assets are an excellent fit with our existing core areas and will expand our portfolio. Phase 2 of our production program will include the implementation of our patented, proprietary technology to increase production by a factor of 6 with anticipated production in excess of 5 barrels a day per well. Our estimated monthly gross revenue would increase from an estimated $321,300 to over $2,295,000 after implantation of our technology on all existing wells," said Glenn McQuiston, Westmont's President.
