Horn Petroleum Corporation ("Horn Petroleum" or the "Corporation") (TSX
VENTURE:HRN) provides the following update on the Shabeel North well in
Puntland, Somalia. 


An open hole Drill Stem Test (DST) was conducted over a 50 metre gross interval
which contained several sands in the upper portion of the primary Jesomma
Formation which had oil shows. The test recovered fresh water (1200 ppm Cl-)
without any traces of oil. The current plan is to drill ahead to the originally
planned depth of approximately 2400 metres which will penetrate the remaining
section of Jesomma sands at which point the entire section will be evaluated by
electrical logging to determine if further testing is warranted.


The well is being operated by Horn Petroleum which holds a 60% working interest
in the Dharoor and Nugaal Valley Production Sharing Agreements ("PSA's") along
with working interest partners Range Resources (20%) and Red Emperor (20%).
Africa Oil Corp. holds an equity interest in Horn Petroleum of approximately
45%.
