FIELD ACTIVITIES / Jerez Energy Executes Letter of Intent for
Texas Gas Prospects

JEREZ ENERGY INTERNATIONAL INC.
ASE SYMBOL: JRZ
NASDAQ SYMBOL: JRZIF
JUNE 17, 1998

CALGARY, ALBERTA--Jerez Energy International Inc. is pleased to
announce that it has entered into a Letter of Intent to acquire a
10 percent working interest in a high potential reef prospect with
potential recovery in excess of one trillion cubic feet of natural
gas.

The prospect is located in a southeastern Texas area known for
multi-zone gas prospects. Texas also offers a stable market and
excellent prices for natural gas. Drilling on the prospect is
expected to begin in the Fall of 1998.

The Company has also agreed to participate with a 6.25 percent
working interest in a joint venture land acquisition program in
southeastern Texas. Joint venture participants will pursue the
acquisition of a variety of reef and other natural gas prospects.
Jerez Energy International Inc. has the option to increase its
interest through a negotiated farm in for an additional 6.25
percent. The acquisitions are subject to completion of
satisfactory participation agreements.

Meanwhile, the Company continues to monitor the ongoing changes in
the Nigerian government after the recent death of General Sani
Abacha, Head of State. Jerez requires government consent for a
light oil farmout agreement signed in February of 1997 prior to
the development of the Ogbelle and Omerelu fields in the prolific
Port Harcourt area of Nigeria.
