The report was prepared using assumptions and methodology guidelines outlined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook ("COGE Handbook") and in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 ("NI 51-101"). Additionally, Gustavson Associates conducted a scoping economic analysis of the Prospect using the "Best Estimate" for both an oil and gas future net revenues (before deductions of income taxes).

Specifically, the report provides the following highlights:

Low Estimate            996 MBbl         3.98 BCF

High Estimate         2,676 MBbl        10.70 BCF

ECONOMIC EVALUATION

Pilgrim also requested Gustavson Associates to complete economic runs with the estimated prospective resources and similar production profiles. This study will show estimate development schedules for Pilgrim's acreage and generate a forecast of future net revenues and discounted cash flow.

The following estimates are based on the best estimate of the prospective hydrocarbon resources. The initial net prices, for the purpose of the analysis are: $59.95 per barrel for the oil case and $4.97 per MCF for the gas case and include deductions for estimated future well abandonment costs.

      Best Estimate Net                  Best Estimate Net Present
      Revenue Before Income Tax          Value of Future Net Revenues
                                         (at 10% discount rate)
      $102,370,000                       $52,050,000

Pilgrim Petroleum President and CEO Rafael Pinedo said, "Pilgrim has strategically waited to develop its asset portfolio together with its venture partners to fully take advantage of its lease position. The projected figure is just an estimation based on previous Geologic studies of the area together with conservative oil price range. With Triple digit oil prices and current market conditions, a great level of profitability undermines the risk associated to oil and gas exploration/drilling. As we approach second quarter, we will communicate more on Drilling Plans for this year. We are very excited about the opportunities we have ahead."

The report is available for review on the Company's website.
