TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - April 27, 2011) - Eurogas International Inc. ("Eurogas International" or the "Corporation") (CNSX:EI) today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

During the first quarter of 2011, the Corporation incurred a net loss of $0.7 million, or approximately $0.02 per share. This compares with a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.04 per share in the first quarter of 2010. The Corporation's March 31, 2011 financial results have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). A detailed analysis of the significant accounting policies adopted by the Corporation on the transition to IFRS and a reconciliation of the Corporation's financial position and results of operations between IFRS and Canadian GAAP are provided in the footnotes to the Corporation's financial statements which have been filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") and which may be viewed under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com or the Corporation's website at www.eurogasinternational.com.

Eurogas International is conducting exploration and evaluation programs for oil and natural gas in the shallow Mediterranean waters offshore Tunisia, where it holds a 45% working interest in the Sfax Permit. The Corporation has entered into a joint operating agreement with APEX, a production sharing agreement with the Tunisian state oil company and a prospecting permit with the Tunisian government. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Corporation and APEX agreed to undertake exploration, evaluation and extraction operations on the Sfax Permit. APEX is the operating partner in the joint venture arrangement.

RECENT EVENTS

On January 18, 2011, the Corporation announced that, together with its joint venture partner, it has declared a condition of a Force Majeure with respect to the Sfax Permit and the Ras-El-Besh concession. The Corporation and its joint venture partner believe that the current political uncertainty and civil unrest in Tunisia adversely affects their ability to continue their exploration and evaluation activities. Eurogas International believes that the declaration of a Force Majeure will temporarily suspend activities while the conditions resulting in the Force Majeure continue. It is anticipated that the Force Majeure declaration will result in an extension of the term of the Sfax Permit and the Ras-El-Besh concession for a period of time equivalent to the time that activities were suspended as a result of the Force Majeure. Once the situation in Tunisia is resolved, exploration and evaluation activities will resume.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

The Offshore Sfax Exploration Permit

On behalf of the joint venture, the Corporation is currently reprocessing four 3-D seismic surveys on the Sfax Permit. The Corporation, together with its joint venture partner, is currently using the reprocessed data to remap the prospects and leads in order to determine a future course of action with respect to the drilling of an exploration well to satisfy its outstanding drilling obligation.

Ras-El-Besh Concession

Upon completion of drilling and testing the REB-3 well within the Ras-El-Besh concession, the joint venture partners requested and received approval from the Tunisian government to temporarily suspend the well and release the drilling rig. Agreement by the Tunisian government was subject to the reinterpretation and remapping of seismic data, after which the joint venture partners were to determine to either reenter or abandon the well. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the joint venture concluded that it was appropriate to abandon the REB-3 well and pursue other opportunities on the Sfax Permit. The Corporation is currently evaluating timing, cost and the methodology for the abandonment, particularly in light of the Corporation's declaration of the Force Majeure. Pursuant to a settlement agreement between the joint venture partners and Delta Hydrocarbons B.V., a previous farmout partner in the Sfax Permit, Delta is committed to fund 50% of any costs associated with abandonment of the REB-3 well until December 9, 2011.

The Seawolf Litigation

In 2009, the joint venture partners commenced arbitration proceedings against Seawolf Oilfield (Cyprus) Limited and Seawolf Oilfield Services Limited (collectively, "Seawolf") under the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration, seeking damages for misrepresentations and breach of contract in respect of the drilling of the REB-3 well. In May 2010, the parties reached a settlement agreement that provides for a US$12 million payment to the joint venture over an 18 month period. The settlement amount is secured by a letter of guarantee issued by a recognized international bank. Delta's entitlement pursuant to the settlement agreement is conditional on Delta meeting its obligations as defined in the settlement agreement, including the funding of its pro-rata share of ongoing costs associated with the litigation with Seawolf.

2011 EXPENDITURES

During the first three months of 2011, $0.3 million (three months ended March 31, 2010 - $0.4 million) was capitalized to the Sfax exploration and evaluation properties.

WORK PROGRAM FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2011

The Corporation has temporarily suspended its 2011 work program pending settlement of the events that resulted in the declaration of Force Majeure. Once activities resume, the Corporation's ability to undertake its future work programs is dependent on it securing the necessary financial arrangements. At March 31, 2011, the Corporation had cash and short term investments of $0.8 million compared with cash and short term investments of $1.1 million at December 31, 2010. The Corporation's current cash resources are insufficient to meet its forecasted 2011 work program. The Corporation is actively pursuing alternative financing options, including debt or equity issuances, potential farmout arrangements, and monetization of certain assets. There can be no assurance that the Corporation will be successful in these initiatives.
