New Frontier Energy, Inc. (NFEI) Provides Project Development Update

New Frontier Energy, Inc. (OTC BB: NFEI) today announced that gross production has increased from six coalbed methane wells currently producing in the Slater Dome project. Production had been restricted prior to adding new compression capacity last month, which can now handle up to 1 million cubic feet per day. Additional compression will be added as necessary.

New Frontier also announced that it has recently completed a three well drilling program at the Slater Dome Project. The wells were drilled to a depth of approximately 2000 feet and will initially be completed in the Lower Isles coals. Additional behind pipe potential is present in the shallower Upper Isles coals and the Williams Fork coals, both of which are prospective in this area. Once completed, these wells will be tied into the existing gas gathering system and placed on pump to begin the dewatering process.

Paul G. Laird, New Frontier's and CEO, commented, "With the addition of increased field compression we are now able to accommodate what we anticipate will be increasing gas volumes from our wells as the dewatering process continues. As is common with many coalbed methane fields, a period of dewatering the coalbeds is generally required, and is associated with steadily increasing gas production. While encouraged by the present levels of methane gas production, additional production history will be required before the full commercial and reserve potential of these wells is known."

Mr. Laird continued, "All of our gas is being transported by the 18 mile line constructed by Slater Dome Gathering, LLLP, which connects the Slater Dome project area to the Questar gas transportation hub south of Baggs, Wyoming. New Frontier, with partial proceeds from the recently completed $2.7 million financing, has increased its interest in the Slater Dome Gathering, LLLP to a majority interest. This line, in addition to transporting our own gas, is a significant asset on its own and will allow us to provide third-party gas transportation services for other development that may occur in the area."

The Slater Dome Prospect consists of approximately 31,631 gross acres of oil and gas leases operated by an independent third party. New Frontier owns a 30% working interest in the prospect. New Frontier and its partners are initially concentrating the drilling and development efforts on the lower Isles coal seams. The project area is also prospective in the Upper Isles coals, the Williams Fork coals as well as the Mesaverde sandstone formations and the deeper Niobrara shale.
