If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or

        (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this
            form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or
            expense;
        (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report

                           PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why the Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D,
N-SAR, N-CSR or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed
within the prescribed time period.


Spindletop Oil & Gas Co. is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007, without unreasonable effort and
expense due to the late receipt of information required from consolidated
subsidiaries and the Company's Annual Report of Oil and Gas Reserves.  The
Company has engaged a third party petroleum engineering consultant to prepare
its Annual Report of Oil and Gas Reserves and the report will not be completed
before required filing date of the Form 10-K.


                        PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(1)  Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification.

          Chris G. Mazzini             972             644-2581
              (Name)               (Area Code)    (Telephone Number)

(2)  Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that
the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?  If answer is
no, identify report(s),         [X] YES     [ ] NO

(3)  Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by
the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion
thereof?                        [X] YES     [ ] NO



If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.


Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 is anticipated to significantly
increase as compared with the prior year.  We anticipate that the net income
for 2007 could be increased by 95%-105% over the $920,000 reported for the
previous year ended December 31, 2006. This estimated increase in net income is
due to an increase in total revenues of approximately 35% to 40%, coupled with
an increase in total expenses of approximately 20% to 25% over that of 2006.

The anticipated increase in revenue is due to both price and production issues
and results in part from an increase in the average sales price for gas of from
approximately $5.55 per mcf in 2006 to approximately $6.63 per mcf in 2007
along with an increase in production of approximately 209,000 mcf.  The sales
price of oil increased from approximately $52.47 per bbl to approximately
$61.58 per bbl from 2006 to 2007.  Oil production actually decreased slightly
from approximately 25,400 bbls in 2006 to approximately 24,500 bbls in 2007.
Much of the increase in gas production was due to 6 new Barnett Shale wells
which were completed in the last half of 2007.

Estimated lease operating expenses for 2007 are anticipated to increase by
approximately 15% from the $2,106,000 incurred in 2006.  This increase is due
to the increase in cost and availability of third party services in addition
to an increase in the number and amount of workover wells.  General and
administrative expenses are expected to increase by approximately 31%, from
the $1,534,000 reported in 2006.  The anticipated increase is due to the
addition of personnel required to handle the additional workload by additional
workovers and regulatory reporting required by the various governmental
agencies.

As described in Part III above, the Company has engaged a third party petroleum
engineering consultant to prepare its Annual Reserve Report.  As of this date,
the report has not been completed.  The impact of the results of the
calculation of the Company's oil and gas reserves as of December 31, 2007 to
be reported by the third party petroleum engineering consultant is not
determinable at this time, and an estimate of the profit and loss effect
compared to the year ended 2006 cannot accurately be determined at this time.
