RAM ENERGY RESOURCES REPORTS YEAR-END 2007 PROVED RESERVES
	-	PROVED RESERVES REACH RECORD LEVEL OF 39.4 MILLION BOE MORE THAN DOUBLE LAST YEAR’S TOTAL OF 18.5 MILLION BOE
	-	PRESENT VALUE OF RESERVES DISCOUNTED AT 10% TOTALS $912 MILLION VERSUS YEAR-END 2006 OF $270 MILLION
	-	FULL YEAR RESERVE REPLACEMENT RATE OF 1500% WITH DRILLING AND ACQUISITION COST OF $15 PER BOE

Tulsa, Oklahoma – RAM Energy Resources, Inc. (Nasdaq: RAME) announced today that estimates of its proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31, 2007 totaled 39.4 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) compared to 18.5 million BOE at year-end 2006. Year-end 2007 proved reserve volumes are more than double the company’s reserve volumes at year-end 2006 as shown in the accompanying table, principally as a result of the acquisition of Ascent Energy late in 2007. Proved reserves at year-end 2007 are higher by 20.9 million BOE, or 113 percent, than proved reserves at year-end 2006.

Reserve Replacement and Finding Cost

Additions to proved reserves from all sources replaced 2007 production of 1.4 million BOE more than 15 times. Similarly, reserve adds, exclusive of the significant reserve additions contributed by the acquisition of Ascent and Ascent’s production for the month of December 2007, were 2.5 times 2007 total production. The finding and development cost associated with proved reserve additions from all sources, was approximately $15 per BOE in 2007. Exclusive of the acquisition of Ascent, the finding and development cost associated with proved reserve additions from all other sources was

approximately $11 per BOE in 2007.

Year-end 2007 estimated proved reserves of 39.4 million BOE are composed of 19.5 million barrels of oil, 4.3 million barrels of natural gas liquids and 93.4 Bcf of natural gas. Crude oil and natural gas liquids represent 60 percent of total proved reserves and natural gas reserves represent the remaining 40 percent of total proved reserves. Of the total proved reserves, a substantial 63 percent were classified as proved developed reserves.

Prices and PV-10 Value

Based on 2007 year-end average prices of $93.90 per barrel for oil, $54.69 per barrel for natural gas liquids and $7.00 per Mcf for natural gas, calculated using SEC mandated methodology, the present value of estimated future net revenues, before income taxes, discounted at 10 percent (PV-10), attributable to the estimate of total proved reserves was $911.5 million at year-end 2007. This compares to a PV-10 of $269.9 million at year-end 2006, calculated using year-end 2006 prices of $58.74 per barrel for oil, $36.51 per barrel for natural gas liquids and $5.51 per Mcf for gas. The increase in PV-10 value at year-end 2007 compared to that of the prior year is primarily attributable to the increase in reserve volumes associated with the acquisition of Ascent and the increase in prices at year-end 2007 over those of the prior year for oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas. The price of oil in particular was 60 percent higher at year-end 2007 than at year-end 2006 and exerted a significant impact on the PV-10 value given the percentage of oil and natural gas liquids in the firm’s hydrocarbon mix. RAM continues to employ, as it has in the past, independent petroleum engineering firms to prepare estimates of its proved reserves in all its operating areas.

Capital Expenditures

During 2007, the company made total oil and gas capital expenditures of $345.3 million, of which $322.6 million, or 93 percent, was spent to acquire Ascent and other proved reserves,

$11.8 million was spent primarily on development and exploitation activities, $6.6 million was spent on exploration and $4.3 million on the acquisition of unproven properties and allocated geological and geophysical expense. The non-acquisition capital spending of $22.7 million, was focused primarily on maintaining production volumes in the company’s Electra/Burkburnett areas in North Texas, accelerating drilling activity on its Barnett Shale acreage in North Texas, testing the results of two exploration wells on the company’s Wolfcamp shale play in West Texas and initiating activity on newly acquired properties of Ascent. As a result of the expected contribution to cash flow associated with its acquisition of Ascent and the expanded opportunities for development and exploitation, the company’s non-acquisition capital budget for the 2008 year is $80 million, a substantial increase over the $22.7 million spent in 2007.
