FIELD ACTIVITIES / Sunburst Oil & Gas update DRilling

EDMONTON, Dec. 30 /CNW/ - Sunburst Oil & Gas Inc. (SBS-ASE) is pleased to
announce their engineers' report on the exploratory findings of the horizontal
drill on test-well 'Western Pembina 16C-20' which is owned and operated by
their wholly-owned subsidiary Western Canada Energy (1996) Ltd.
'Western Pembina 16C-20' is a development horizontal re-entry well. The
original Plymouth Pembina 16-20 vertical well was drilled in July 1956.
On December 08, 1997, the wellbore was re-entered by milling a window
through the old 139.7mm production casing from 1494.6 to 1497.5 metres. The
121mm build section was kicked off at 1496 metres and the horizontal section
was drilled due north to within 1.67 metres south of the section 20 boundary.
This well was terminated in the Cardium sand at 1743 metres on December 14th,
1997 at 02:20 hours.

This well drilled to produce oil from the Cardium at 1568.47 metres true
vertical depth. The reservoir has two porosity members separated by a 1 metre
shale streak. The 3.6 metre upper chert conglomerate sand is the target
reservoir.

The top .4 metres is a medium to course grained chert conglomerate that
is tightly cemented with intergranular very fine grained silica cemented
quartz. This caprock is underlain by moderately cemented, in part friable,
very fine to lower fine grained quartz sand with porosities ranging from 8 to
16% and fair implied permeability. It is saturated with very light oil and
samples have an immediate very good live oil cut. The reservoir was
penetrated at 1599 metres MD and the entire lateral trajectory was drilled in
oil pay. This conglomerate dips up to the north.

Total drilled..............(1599-1743m) - 144 metres
''Moderate Pay''...........(1599-1602, 1610-1640m) - 33 metres or 23%
''Rich Pay''...............(1602-1610, 1640-1743m) - 111 metres or 77%

Western Pembina 16C-20 possesses all the attributes of a successful
horizontal Cardium Oilwell. Production liner was run over the build section
on December 14, 1997.
