NZ New Zealand Energy Corp

New Zealand Energy Corp. (TSX VENTURE:NZ)(OTCQX:NZERF) ("NZEC" or the "Company")
today announced that the Company has achieved target depth and cased its Copper
Moki-3 well in the Taranaki Basin of New Zealand's North Island. 


Copper Moki-3 was drilled through the Urenui and Mt. Messenger formations to the
deeper Moki formation, with a measured depth of 3,167 metres and true vertical
depth of 2,633 metres. NZEC ran open hole logs and has completed casing to total
depth. The Company plans to test both the Moki and Mt. Messenger formations. The
Company will perforate and test the Moki formation first and determine next
steps for the well based on those results.


Following perforation of Copper Moki-3 the rig will be repositioned on the same
drill pad to spud Copper Moki-4, which will target the Urenui and Mt. Messenger
formations.


On behalf of the Board of Directors, 

Bruce McIntyre, President & Director
