Tulsa, Oklahoma, November 17, 2005. American Natural Energy Corporation (“ANEC”) (TSX Venture:ANR.U) announced that it drilled 2 gross (.36 net) wells during the third quarter of 2005. The wells were drilled within ANEC’s ExxonMobil Joint Development project in St. Charles Parish, Louisiana. The first well, the DSCI-92, was completed at vertical depths ranging from 5,650 to 5,770 feet. Gross oil production from the DSCI-92 is currently at a rate of 200 barrels of oil per day. The second well, known as the DSCI-51, was completed at vertical depths ranging from 6,840 to 6,910 feet. A gravel pack has been installed and production testing is underway.

ANEC intends to spud a well, the DSCI-15, on or about November 18. The well is intended to be drilled to a vertical depth of approximately 7,800 feet. ANEC has a 21.25% working interest in this well.

ANEC currently has 18 gross (10.28 net) wells currently producing approximately 140 barrels of oil per day equivalents to its interest.
