Oil and gas exploration company Sentry Petroleum Ltd. (OTCBB: SPLM) announced today the initiation of the company's 2008 Australian exploration strategy. Sentry Petroleum President Alan Hart commented, "The Company will strive to control and operate low-risk, shallow oil and gas exploration and production opportunities in proven onshore hydrocarbon fairways. If we are successful, these exploration efforts will entail low-risk opportunities in producing basins and help us achieve quick revenue return to the shareholders."

The Company is presently in discussions that may allow it to participate in a number of more frontier, high-impact oil and gas prospects. Alan Hart continued, "We have been actively investigating opportunities in Australia's Cooper and Adavale Basins. The Adavale basin encompasses 59,750 km2 (14 million acres), or more area than the country of Costa Rica. Fewer than 55 exploration wells have been drilled in the basin resulting in the discovery of 1 gas field containing 13 billion cubic feet of gas (2.3 million BOEs)."

Sentry Petroleum advised that it has commenced its operations with a measured land aggregation strategy through joint venture and through government gazettal. The Company will diligently maintain a risk-managed business plan utilizing farm-in partners and joint ventures to minimize capital exposure.
