HOUSTON, Oct 12, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- AZGS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Aztec Oil & Gas, Inc. (Pink Sheets:AZGS) announced today the successful drilling and completion of the Ragle #3 well in Palo Pinto County, Texas. The 5,000' +/- vertical well encountered multiple pay zones in the Ellenberger, Upper Barnett, Marble Falls, Conglomerate, Lower and Upper Strawn, bottom to top respectively. Log analysis revealed probable commercial pay in several of those zones and excellent secondary porosity in the Ellenberger. The well is presently completed in the Ellenberger zone and is producing natural gas, condensates and petroleum liquids. Direct offset well potential exists on the Ragle #3 lease. Additionally, Aztec Oil & Gas has signed contracts with G & F Oil, Inc. to drill several wells in the general area and will begin drilling of the Ragle #6 within the next few weeks. All of the proposed wells are classified as developmental with multiple pay potential. The Ragle #3 and all additional wells in the area will be included in the Aztec investor partnerships formed under the recently closed Aztec VIII Oil & Gas Drilling Program.

About Aztec Oil & Gas, Inc.

Aztec is an oil and gas exploration, development and production company focusing on Texas and numerous areas throughout the U.S. Its interests are highly diversified as exemplified by its corporate participation in two Deep Lake wells in Cameron Parish, Louisiana ranging from 13,600 feet to 14,300 feet in depth versus its corporate participation in three shallow gas wells in Oklahoma of which two are conventional wells, and the third is a horizontal, Coal Bed Methane (CBM) well.

In 2006 Aztec entered the sponsored drilling program industry and undertook three small, very limited annual drilling partnerships in Appalachia. Drilling in Appalachia was recommended to Aztec by several broker dealers and a wholesaler, supposedly, because many broker dealers were familiar with programs from the area. Aztec intentionally limited its sponsored drilling programs over the subject three years in order to become fully familiar with the nuances of the sponsored drilling program industry before expanding to the Company's full capabilities. In the summer of 2008, due to what it felt was a questionable outlook for shallow gas drilling in the Appalachian region, Aztec decided to discontinue any natural gas drilling in Appalachia and announced such publicly at several industry conferences.

Aztec focused all drilling in 2009 on Texas and adjoining states. In addition to the initial, three existing small Appalachian drilling partnerships mentioned above; Aztec recently sponsored and closed its VIII A, B and C partnerships. Aztec Energy LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aztec, acts as Managing General Partner of all drilling partnerships and another wholly-owned Aztec subsidiary, Aztec Drilling & Operating, LLC, is the turnkey drilling contractor and operator. Aztec owns a 30% interest in all of its drilling partnerships. In general clarification of its activities, Aztec sponsors low risk, development drilling programs which include significant tax benefits, all of which are sold through FINRA member Broker Dealers and Registered Investment Advisors only to Accredited Investors. Aztec's drilling programs focus on shallow oil drilling, are very unique and also incorporate a sophisticated exit strategy for investors.
