1, 2007 of approximately US $11.0 million which will bring the total

will occur before the end of September, 2007.


Gary Guidry, President of Tanganyika, commented, "With our full time focus on
our world-class oil development project in Syria it was timely to divest our
interests in the West Gharib block in Egypt which had gradually become non-core
assets to the Company. All attention is focused on our work in Syria towards
increasing production through accelerated drilling, mobilization of additional
workover rigs and steam generators and the modification and expansion of oil,
gas, water and electrical facilities. Four new steam generators have arrived on
site and are expected to positively impact production in the coming weeks."
