Centurion Energy - Abu Monkar Well to be Spudded in El
Manzala Concession in the Nile Delta in Egypt

CALGARY, ALBERTA--Centurion Energy International Inc. announces
the spudding of the Abu Monkar #1 exploratory well in the Nile
Delta in Egypt. The well is within the onshore El Manzala
concession where Centurion holds a 40 percent working interest.

The well will test a seismically defined prospect with an
extensive areal extent and a "bright spot" indicative of
hydrocarbon gas charged reservoirs. The Abu Monkar well is
located in an area where significant gas reserves have been
discovered. Based on seismic interpretation of the area, the Abu
Monkar prospect could contain estimated gas reserves of 150
billion cubic feet in place at a depth of approximately 4500 feet.
The national gas pipe line network crosses the northern boundary
of El Manzala concession and ties in to a gas processing plant
west of the concession.

The Egyptian Delta is being recognized as a major world class gas
province, and the World Bank recently estimated that approximately
40 trillion cubic feet of gas reserves remain to be discovered in
this sector of the Egyptian aquatory.
