Dejour Grows 'Montney' Block - Targets Royalty Free Oil

Calgary, Alberta August 18, 2008 :  Dejour Enterprises Ltd. announces it has secured 3792 additional net acres in the emerging 'Montney' natural gas trend in NE British Columbia at the 13-08-08 government oil and gas drilling rights auction.

“This increases our land holdings to 6352 contiguous acres (2541 ha.) at a total cost of CDN $902,000. Participation in this 'Montney' natural gas resource trend adds to the strategic exploration and development growth plan for Dejour. The addition, at a much lower cost than some recent high profile deals, will provide the Company a significant additional growth opportunity to compliment its recent success in the Peace River Arch,” states Charles Dove, President, Dejour Energy (Alberta).

These lands have the additional benefit of being adjacent to necessary appropriate pipeline infrastructure, dramatically underwriting the future costs of bringing any reserves to market.

Initial drilling of these lands is anticipated in winter 2009-10.

Production Update

Dejour is in the final stages of initiating oil production from its 100% owned new pool discovery at Woodrush (part of the Drake area lands) in NE BC. All weather access and tanks have been supplied, with final electrical work being to be completed in Q3/08. The discovery well, into the 'Halfway' zone, encountered virgin pressures testing over 600 barrels of oil per day. The BC Government has established an initial restricted flow rate of 180 barrels per day from this well pending establishment of reservoir dynamics of the discovery, at which time allowable flow rates are expected to be increased. Dejour plans a minimum of two offset wells into this pool in Q4-08/Q1-09.  

The Company has applied for and anticipates receiving, a three year royalty free holiday from the BC Government associated with production from this new pool discovery well.

Dejour is on target to tie-in five natural gas/oil wells in Drake, Carson Creek and Saddle Hills (with Zargon) in Q3/08, bringing the total to nine production wells established in 2008.

The Company plans to drill 8 additional wells offsetting these discoveries during the coming winter drill season.

Charles Dove, P. Geoph. is the qualified person for this release.
