Midland, Texas, January 16, 2001 – Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ –

Clayton W. Williams, President and CEO said, “We expect to have the
majority of these wells on-line by March 1st and will evaluate reserves as
we establish a production history. We believe we have established South
Louisiana as a new core area for the Company, which will be managed out of
our Houston office. I am particularly proud of Pat Reesby, our Houston
manager, who has been with us for over 20 years and the consulting technical
team he has assembled. The team has three geophysicists and three
geologists with an average of 31 years experience in South Louisiana. With
the scientific and technical capabilities that have been exhibited, we
expect to add substantially more prospects to this new core area.”
