PAN-GLOBAL ENTERPRISES INC. - ACQUISITION AND EXPLORATION UPDATE

VANCOUVER, June 23 /CNW/
Pan-Global Enterprises Inc.
VSE SYMBOL - ''PGE''

Further to Pan-Global Enterprises Inc.'s news release on June 17, 1998
the company is pleased to announce detailed information regarding recently
acquired prospects and an update on domestic developments.

Acquired International Prospects:

Tunisia/Bazma

Pan-Global has an option to purchase a 40% interest from a third party in
the Bazma prospect, resulting in a 6% WI.

The Bazma permit comprises an area of approximately 500,000 acres,
located in central Tunisia. Three pipelines with available capacity run along
the eastern boundary of the permit, carrying oil and gas to the terminals on
the Gulf of Gabes, approximately 75km to the northeast.

The initial well, Bazma 1 commenced drilling operations on April 1, 1998
and is expected to reach total depth by mid July 1998. Eurogas Corporation is
the operator of the well and Mobil Oil has farmed-in on a promoted basis (pay
53% to earn 40%). Encouraging results at this location could lead to 3
additional prospects of similar size and potential in this area.

Yemen/Block43

Block No. 43 is located immediately to the south and east of the Canadian
Occidental Masilla block No. 14 where they are currently producing
approximately 200,000 bopd and have suggested reserves close to 1 billion
barrels of recoverable oil. The Canadian Occidental export pipeline runs
through the southwest portion of this block.

There is 1500km of seismic in place, the operator is reviewing the
existing data and has identified several preliminary leads for exploratory
wells. Plans include a high-resolution gravity and magnetic survey to help
refine these leads and then acquire 3-D seismic over the most promising leads.
Plans to drill these wells will be based on the timing of 3-D survey results;
most likely scenario is the first quarter of 1999.

The Masilla block has identified 13 separate oilfields, ranging from
approximately 5 million barrels of recoverable oil (MMBO) to over 200 MMBO.
The geology of the Masilla block carries into block No. 43 and some of the
wells have indicated oil shows. Pan-Global has a 16% WI in this project.

West Texas/South Fort Stockton

Pan-Global has purchased a 6.67% WI BPO and a 5% APO in this project. To
date, two prospects have been identified by 3-D seismic interpretation. The
project area is approximately 5,280 acres, located midway between the Gomez
Field to the northwest (cumulative production to date 4.7 TCF gas) and the
Puckett Field to the southeast (cumulative production to date 3.8 TCF gas).

The prospects are interpreted by First Calgary Petroleums Ltd. management
to be similar in size and geological setting to the McComb Field located
immediately to the north (cumulative production to date 70 BCF). The well was
spudded in February 1998 and is currently at 18,000 feet. The Final Total
Depth will be 26,000 feet; October 1998 is when the company expects results.

Louisiana/South Lakeside, Cameron Parish

The South Lakeside Prospect comprises an area of approximately 3,000
acres, located in southwest Louisiana in Cameron Parish, 17 miles southwest of
the town of Lake Arthur, 16 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico coast on the
south shore of Lake Misere.

The initial well was drilled, cased and suspended in 1997 at total cost
of US $9.2 million. The first well was drilled on a loose grid of 2-D
seismic, subsequent to the suspension; a regional 3-D seismic program was
obtained and interpreted which confirmed the extent of the fault trace and two
adjacent prospective fault bocks. The second well will kick-off from the
cased portion of the first well, drill laterally approximately 800 feet, then
vertically into the Myogypsinoid sands.

Re-entering the second well started on June 13th, 1998 and is expected to
be a 30-day program. The reserve potential may be up to 750 BCF of gas,
adjacent fields have produced 500 BCF to 1.5 TCF of gas. Pan-Global has a net
5% WI in this project.

Domestic Developments:

Long Coulee-Alberta

During the fourth quarter of 1997, Pan-Global participated in the
drilling of two wells that resulted in a new pool gas discovery and a
development well. The company has an 18% BPO and 16% APO for the first two
wells. The new pool discovery gas well is located at 14-7-18-22 W4M and the
development well at 14-11-18-23 W4M; production tests indicated a combined
rate of production of 3,000 mcf/d of sweet gas and some liquids. The wells
have been tied-in and production will begin in July 1998. Pan-Global has
participated and currently evaluating one additional well at 12-6-18-22 W4M.
The company has 22% BPO and 21.33% APO in this well.

Long Coulee North-Alberta

Pan-Global has an AMI in 20 sections covering 12,800 acres, which is
adjacent to its successful properties to the south. The company has
identified several drillable locations based on interpretation of seismic
covering over 70 miles. Pan-Global is currently drilling at W4M, paying 40%
of costs to earn 28% BPO and 28% APO.

Kirk Lake-Alberta

Pan-Global purchased a 50% working interest in an Alberta Crown Lease at
a land sale in November of 1997. The company believes that this is a good
candidate to farm-out during 1998 or to participate in the drilling of this
moderate drill depth, relatively low risk well.

Cereal-Alberta

Pan-Global has a 20% WI in two sections of pooled lands and a 20%
interest in an AMI. The company plans to purchase seismic and reprocess to
optimize a drillable location in 1998. This project is a low risk candidate
based on geologic/geophysical control.

Sturgeon Lake-Alberta

During the fourth quarter of 1997, Pan-Global purchased an option to
participate in the exploration and development of D-2 (Nisku) and D-3 (Leduc)
prospects. Suncor has farmed-in and pooled their interests in the area where
Range Petroleum is the operator. Additional sections of land have also been
purchased, two sections in Block A and one section in Block B. Pan-Global can
elect to exercise its option as to a 1.5% WI on Block A after the well has
been drilled or 2% WI in Block B after issuance of a drilling A.F.E. Sturgeon
Lake prospects are of enormous size and may have millions of barrels of
recoverable oil.

Pan-Global Enterprises Inc. is a Canadian based independent oil and gas
company engaged in North American and International projects. The company
trades on the Vancouver Stock Exchange under the symbol PGE.
