American Energy Production, Inc. Announces Increased Oil Production From Investee Production, Resources Inc.

Posted on: Tuesday, 20 September 2005, 09:00 CDT

American Energy Production Inc. (OTCBB:AMEP) announced today its wholly owned investee, Production Resources, Inc. posted significant oil production increases after several months of testing various procedures utilizing AMEP HOA 800. PRI discovered a method of well treatment that combines the utilization of heat along with AMEP HOA-800 in a chemical process that has returned positive results. PRI has increased oil production from the Olmos formation on the 12 test wells by as much as 500% for the month of August. Plans are being implemented to expand the testing area to an additional 25 oil wells in the next 45 days. In august PRI produced 987 barrels of oil at gross sales of approximately $55,000.00

Charles Bitters, President of American Energy Production, Inc. stated, "This is the best month for oil production and revenues that PRI has done since AMEP bought the Company. PRI has been working extremely hard on achieving the desired results with AMEP HOA-800 and now believe its time to start expanding this treatment program. There is still room for improvement, but I believe PRI can now benefit because of current record high oil prices and increased production rates from the Olmos heavy oil sand field. This oil field is very difficult to produce because of the tight sand and the compaction of the heavy oil in the sand; still these are very exciting results."

Management cannot discuss the details and/or formulations being used with AMEP HOA- 800, but PRI believes the heat treatment once perfected can possibly be sold to other oil operators. The Company will keep investors informed of the expanded test results.

Update to investors.

Also on June 28, 2005 AMEP announced that wholly owned investee Bend Arch Petroleum, Inc. is in the process of filing permits to re-enter another well in the Barnett Shale formation located on its 12 well Palo Pinto Project. This well could be our most significant to date and a major milestone for the company due to the 1000 to 1500 horizontal lateral line that will be drilled in the Barnett Shale. With the purchase of a 8,000 foot drilling rig by AMEP Strategic Investments Inc., another investee of American Energy Production Inc., this will be the first well the drilling rig will be moved to. In most scenarios a horizontal well will produce more oil and natural gas than a vertical well. The Company is extremely excited about the potential for this Barnett Shale well. Bend Arch Petroleum is in a great position to benefit from record high prices for oil and natural gas prices because the Company has accumulated over 7,000 acres of leases that have potential Barnett Shale production.
