Dejour's
Third Oil Well Boosts Recoverable Reserve Estimate to
1.35
Million BO from Halfway Reservoir
Confirmation
of Halfway Oil Volume Moves
Company to
Accelerate
Waterflood Implementation to
January 2011
Calgary, Alberta, October 29,
2010
-- Dejour Enterprises Ltd. (NYSE-Amex: DEJ / TSX: DEJ) reports that
casing operations of its 3rd oil well (A-91-H) at its 6000 acre Woodrush project
have been completed. Flow lines have been connected to the main tank battery and
the Company has commenced light oil production at an initial rate of 150 barrels
per day from the Halfway pool effective October 28, 2010. Dejour is operator and
holds a 75% WI in this project.
"The
successful completion of this well confirms a single Halfway reservoir with an
estimated 1.35 million barrels of recoverable oil. With this confirmation, the
application for a field wide waterflood has been submitted to the British
Columbia Oil and Gas Commission. Approval of this application is
expected in four to six weeks and commencement of water injection is planned for
January 31, 2011. Dejour estimates that this waterflood will add more than
700,000 barrels of oil to the recoverable reserves from this single reservoir at
a capital cost of $5 per barrel," comments Hal Blacker, M.Sc. MEng., Dejour
COO.
"With
three wells now on line, productive capacity from this Halfway reservoir is
currently more than 850 barrels of oil per day. Dejour will continue to restrict
production from this pool to conform with British Columbia’s allowable well
production limits until the waterflood has been implemented. Meanwhile, gas
production continues at a rate of 2.7 million cubic feet/day (450 BOE/day) from
various Woodrush gas reservoirs," Blacker continues.
This
brings the total producible wells to date at Woodrush to nine - three oil wells
and six gas wells. Dejour plans an additional injection well and possibly one
additional producing oil well to be added to the reservoir at the time of the
waterflood start up.

BOEs may
be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A conversion ratio of 6
thousand cubic feet of gas to 1 BOE is used in this news release and is based on
an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip
and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
Statements Regarding Forward-Looking
Information:
This news release contains statements about oil and gas
production and operating activities that may constitute "forward-looking
statements" or “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable
securities legislation as they involve the implied assessment that the resources
described can be profitably produced in the future, based on certain estimates
and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations,
estimates and projections that involve a number of risks, uncertainties and
other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated by Dejour and described in the forward-looking statements. These
risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, adverse
general economic conditions, operating hazards, drilling risks, inherent
uncertainties in interpreting engineering and geologic data, competition,
reduced availability of drilling and other well services, fluctuations in oil
and gas prices and prices for drilling and other well services, government
regulation and foreign political risks, fluctuations in the exchange rate
between Canadian and US dollars and other currencies, as well as other risks
commonly associated with the exploration and development of oil and gas
properties. Additional information on these and other factors, which could
affect Dejour’s operations or financial results, are included in Dejour’s
