Sentry Petroleum Completes Drilling of first Coal Seam Gas Well – Reacquires 100% in ATP 865 and ATP 866


Perth, Australia (June 27, 2011) Sentry Petroleum Ltd (SPLM:OTCBB), (“Sentry” or the “Company”), a U.S. energy company with oil, gas and coal seam gas rights in Queensland, Australia is pleased to announce that drilling of the Talundilly_CSG1 well in ATP 862 in Queensland was completed on the 24th of June. The well encountered 12.7m of net coal which were canistered immediately for gas desorption measurements. Gas was observed from the coal cores, however it is too early to make any conclusions as to the commerciality of the deposit until the desorption tests have been completed. The wireline logs confirm the coal thickness. The rig is now moving to the Albilbah_CSG1 location, 37km from the Talundilly_CSG1 well and drilling is expected to commence on Monday 4th of July.
