Mart Resources, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MMT) ("Mart" or the "Company") and its
co-venturers, Midwestern Oil and Gas Company Plc. (Operator of the Umusadege
field) and SunTrust Oil Company Limited, are pleased to report the initial test
results from the zones tested on the UMU-8 well and provide an update on
production in the Umusadege field, onshore Nigeria.


The first extended test on the UMU-8 well was conducted on the XV sand, an 11
foot oil zone, which flowed at a stabilized rate of 4,205 barrels oil per day
("bopd") of 44 API gravity oil through 3 1/2 inch tubing on a 28/64 inch choke
at a flowing tubing pressure of 140 psi. Basic sediment and water (BS&W) was 0%
with gas/oil ratio of approximately 175.9 standard cubic feet per barrel. 


The second extended test on the UMU-8 well was conducted on the X11(a) sand, a
39 foot oil zone, which flowed at a stabilized rate of 1,140 bopd of 36 API
gravity oil through 3 1/2 inch tubing on a 24/64 inch choke at a flowing tubing
pressure of 90 psi. Basic sediment and water (BS&W) was 0% with gas/oil ratio of
approximately 25 standard cubic feet per barrel. 


Further updates will be provided once testing has been completed. 

Crude oil deliveries into the export pipeline from the Umusadege field between
1st and the 16th of September averaged 7,491 bopd. Aggregate Umusadege field
downtime over this period was approximately 0.7 days due primarily to field
maintenance issues.


Negotiations with the operator of the export pipeline to increase capacity are
ongoing.

Note: Except where expressly stated otherwise, all production figures set out in
this press release, including bopd, reflect gross Umusadege field production
rather than production attributable to Mart. Mart's share of total gross
production before taxes and royalties from the Umusadege field fluctuates
between 82.5% (before capital cost recovery) and 50% (after capital cost
recovery).
