MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., (OTCBB:AOGN - News;

the Hughs #1, Noble County, Oklahoma.

The tubing in the Hughs #1 is sanded in at 4694 feet in the Bartlesville Zone.
"We have a pulling unit moving on the location later today," said Kent
Rodriguez, President and CEO of Avalon.

and do a Xylean chemical treatment to remove any paraffin emulsion in the
perforations," said Dave Geyer, President of Norman, Oklahoma based DRG Energy,
