Avalon Reports Janssen #1A June 2007 Production Numbers
Wednesday July 11, 4:01 pm ET

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., (OTCBB:AOGN - News) is
pleased to announced that the Janssen #1A, Karnes County, Texas produced 8,062
MCF of gas and 163 Barrels of condensate in June 2007. Avalon owns a 15% working
interest in the well. The well is operated by Tradestar Resources (TSRR.PK) Hot
Springs, Arkansas.

The well was perforated at approximately the 10,300 foot interval in the Roeder
Sand (Wilcox Sand Series). The well was perforated with 6,000 feet of water
fluid in the tubing to help prevent any extreme gas pressure blowing the
perforation tools up the hole. The well has been flowing at an average rate of
250 MCF per day, along with 10 barrels of high grade condensate. "We are very
pleased with the initial production from this well", stated Avalon CEO, Kent
Rodriguez.

At present the well is flowing into the sales line without the need of a gas
compressor. It is anticipated that a small gas compressor will be required to
maintain a consistent daily flow rate. This is to prevent the possibility of not
being able to overcome the pipeline pressure being too high for the wells'
natural flowing pressure to enter into the sales line.

The Janssen # 1A has a gas sales contract that fluctuates monthly with the
Houston Ship Channel price index. The liquid condensate will be sold at the
monthly spot price for product in the regional Texas area. Avalon will receive
its first revenue distribution in July for the hydrocarbon products sold from
the Janssen #1A well.

Total reserves are estimated to be 75,000 to 100,000 barrels of condensate and 3
to 4 BCF of gas (billion cubic feet of gas). The well is located in an area that
is very active in gas and oil production. There are several nearby wells that
produce natural gas in excess of over 1 million cubic feet per day. This well
should produce revenues for many years to come.
