Remington Says 65% of Pre-Storm Production Has Been Restored

Remington Oil and Gas Corporation

Remington Oil and Gas estimates 65 percent of its pre-storm production has been restored. The Company expects production to resume at its largest producing field, East Cameron 346, next week following a two week shut down due to a facility upgrade and Hurricane Katrina. At the Company's non-operated South Pass 89 Complex, damage to three production platforms varies from minor to severe. Estimates for production restoration at this complex range from weeks to months. This field, prior to the storm, represented approximately 5 percent of our daily production.

Listed below are wells recently drilled, currently drilling or completing, along with wells that are scheduled to be drilled in the near term.
