Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

(a)(1) On August 10, 2004, Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc. ("the Registrant") changed
       accountants from Madsen & Associates. CPA's Inc. to Deloitte & Touche LLP,

          (i)  The Registrant decided to dismiss Madsen & Associates. CPA's Inc.
               as its independent accountants.

         (ii)  Madsen & Associates. CPA's Inc. report on the financial
               statements for the period from September 10, 2003 to September
               30, 2003 as contained in Form 10-K/A, Amendment Number 2, which
               was filed on May 13, 2004, was not subject to an adverse or
               qualified opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not
               modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles
               for the period from September 10, 2003 to September 30, 2003 or
               for either of the past two years. Madsen & Associates. CPA's Inc.
               report on the financial statements for the period from September
               10, 2003 to September 30, 2003 raises substantial doubt about the
               Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern and that
               continuation of the Registrant as a going concern is dependent
               upon obtaining additional working capital.

        (iii)  The decision to change accountants was approved by the
               Registrant's Board of Directors; and

         (iv) (A) During the period from our engagement of Madsen & Associates.
                  CPA's Inc. on February 9, 2004 to the date we dismissed Madsen
                  & Associates. CPA's Inc. on August 10, 2004, there were no
                  disagreements with Madsen & Associates. CPA's Inc. related to
                  accounting principles or practices, financial statement
                  disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
                  disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of Madsen
                  & Associates. CPA's Inc. would have caused Madsen & Associates.
                  CPA's Inc. to make reference to the subject matter of the
                  disagreement in connection with its report.
