co-venturers, Midwestern Oil and Gas Company Plc. (Operator of the Umusadege
field) and Suntrust Oil Ltd are pleased to provide an update on the UMU-7 well
in the Umusadege field. 


The UMU-7 well reached a final total drilling depth of 8,715 feet on March 11,
2011. Open hole wireline logs have been run with results indicating a total of
15 hydrocarbon reservoirs. The well logs also indicate a cumulative gross pay of
approximately 380 feet in the 15 sands identified in the UMU-7 well. 


All of the UMU-7 well's primary objectives, including the VIII, XIIc, XIV and
XVI sands were hydrocarbon bearing with results indicating gross oil pay of 26
feet, 17 feet, 42 feet and 10 feet respectively. 


9 5/8" production casing has successfully been run and cemented. The next phase
of operations will include perforating and the installation of completion
equipment consisting of a dual tubing string (3 1/2" and 2 7/8") configuration
allowing for multi zone testing and future production. After the completion
equipment is installed, testing on individual sands will be conducted.

Wade Cherwayko, Chairman and CEO of Mart Resources Inc, said "The drilling
success of the UMU-7 well confirms the additional development potential in the
