Exhibit 99.1
 
UNITED AMERICAN PETROLEUM CORP. BEGINS PRODUCTION ON ITS BASTROP COUNTY, TEXAS PROJECT
 
Austin, TX—April 4, 2011 – United American Petroleum Corp. (OTC Markets: UAPC) wishes to inform its shareholders that its Rosser #4 well recently drilled on its Bastrop, County, Texas property has been equipped, is online and producing. This project begins the Company’s development drilling program to fully exploit the oil pool United believes exists within the Company’s Bastrop County, Texas holdings. United’s oil producing Bastrop project comprises over 400 acres, with 10 existing wells currently drilled with potential offset locations.

The Bastrop serpentine fields have production potential from both the Austin Chalk and lower Buda formation. The Bastrop Project has both geological and geophysical evaluations in addition to seismic data, which leads United to believe it has potential of significant recoverable reserves.

The Company’s Gabriel #9 well, located within its Bastrop project, is equipped and is awaiting electrical power in order to commence production. United believes its Gabriel #9 well will be online and producing within the next two weeks. The Company will announce additional information regarding its drilling operations as developments unfold.

“We are encouraged with the progress of our drilling operations to date and believe our Bastrop project has the potential to become a significant oil and gas producer. We look forward to further developing this project to increase our shareholder value,” stated United American Petroleum President, Michael Carey.
