VANCOUVER, May 27 /CNW/ - Petromin Resources Ltd.
Vancouver Stock Exchange ''PTR''

Petromin Resources Ltd. (the ''Company'') announces that the initial well
on its Chamberlain Horizontal Drilling Project has been spudded, and is
currently being drilled. This well will enter the existing oil reserves of
the Chamberlain Blairmore oil pool which has been allocated at least 3,200,000
barrels of oil in place by the Energy Utilities Board of Alberta (the
''EUB''). The Company has a 12.5% interest in this project.
The Chamberlain Blairmore oil pool, located near Edmonton, Alberta, has
had cumulative production of 200,000 barrels of oil to date from vertical
wells. The EUB allocation of oil in place is based on data from these
vertical wells. Petromin currently anticipates 4-5 horizontal wells in this
drilling program.
Results from the drilling and testing of this initial well will be
released as they become available.
