FIELD ACTIVITIES / Velvet Exploration Accelerates Exploration Program

November 25, 1997
VSE: Trading Symbol: VLV

The Company is pleased to announce it will commence the drilling of
its third exploration well tomorrow.

The well is being drilled at 16-6-44-23W4M and will be drilled to a
total depth of 1790 meters. Although the primary target for the well
is in the Cretaceous section (1400 - 1500 meters), the well will also
test the Wabamun & Nisku formations of the Devonian section. The
Company's working interest in this well is 80%.

Once the 16-6 well is finished, the drilling rig will move directly to
drill the 14-24-44-24W4M location and then to 10-35-43-24W4M for a
third consecutive well. The drilling of these three "back to back"
wells is consistent with the Company's strategy of significantly
accelerating the Samson Cree and Ermineskin exploration programs.

Completion and production testing operations at the Company's second
well, 10-15-44-24W4 has commenced & results are expected in the next
10 days.
