Exhibit 99.1
 
Mogul Energy International, Inc. Provides Drilling Results

--Results of Initial Drilling on East Wadi Araba Concession, Gulf of Suez, Egypt--

Seattle, WA -- September 18, 2007 -- Mogul Energy International, Inc. (OTCBB: MGUY) announced today that it received notification from project operator Dover Investments Ltd. (Dover) that the drilling on the EWA-4X well has reached a total depth of 5,250 feet (measured depth) and the drill has entered an igneous granite rock basement formation.
 
Mogul was informed by Dover that the deviated onshore EWA-4X well penetrated a Carboniferous Nubia formation with several potential sandstone reservoirs.  None of these potential reservoirs provided indications of economic hydrocarbon accumulations, thus no testing is planned and the well is currently being electric wire-line logged and prepared for final plugging and abandonment.
 
Mogul was informed by Dover that the well tested a clearly mapped closed structure which lies up-dip and less than 3 kilometers from the prolific Warda Oilfield, but it appears to Dover that the major bounding fault lying between them has not provided a conduit for oil migration into the structure tested by the EWA-4X well.
 
Mogul and its partners are now assessing the results accumulated from this exploration well and are reviewing the future program in the block in light of the new evidence gained from the drilling of the EWA-4X well.  The EWA-4X well is the first of five identified structures that have been evaluated by Mogul Energy and its partners in the EWA Concession. There are six additional prospects in the EWA Concession that are being evaluated for future exploration.
