KOKO Petroleum, Inc. (PINK SHEETS:KKPT) announced today that it has
revised its Letter of Intent with JMT Resources, Ltd. Fort Worth
Texas regarding the Development of JMT's polymer flood pilot
program on its leasehold located in Corsicana, Texas. The previous
agreement focused only on the pilot program for the polymer flood
in a specific area of JMT's acreage. The revised agreement gives
KOKO the right, via a master joint venture, to participate in all
of JMT's acreage in the Corsicana Field which totals 7,838 acres.
As mentioned in previous releases, this leasehold is the oldest oil
field in Texas and was discovered in the 1890's by a company that
eventually became Mobil Oil. Recent geological analyses indicated
there are several zones under the Nacatoch zone (where the polymer
flood is being developed) which are oil bearing and have an
excellent possibility for commercial production. These zones
include the Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk and Wolf City. The joint
venture plans on shooting 3D seismic over portions of the Field to
better understand the potential of these zones and corresponding
reserves. Subsequently, an aggressive horizontal and vertical
drilling plan will be implemented to capitalize on the seismic
findings. The joint venture will also continue to develop its
polymer pilot project which to date has drilled and completed two
wells of the 13 well project. Rig availability has hampered the
original drilling schedule; however, six consecutive wells are
schedule to start drilling on February 28, 2006. Geological
engineering studies have shown that an effective ASP flood could
yield as much as 30% to 40% of the original oil in place with
lifting costs below $7 per barrel. Original Oil in Place was
estimated to be in excess of 100 million barrels by engineers
previously associated with the field. Koko Petroleum, Inc. has
committed to fund up to $4 million USD for the right to participate
in all of JMT's acreage in the Corsicana Field. Ted Kozub, CEO of
KOKO Petroleum, Inc., stated the following: "KOKO has an
opportunity to become involved with veteran oil people in the
development of this field that combines technology with vast
resources. We have created a structure that mitigates our downside
risk while exposing us to tremendous upside potential. This is an
important step in KOKO Petroleum's financial development and we
feel it will translate to significant shareholder value." Certain
