September 27 - Strata Oil & Gas Inc. Discovers Major Bitumen Resource

Strata Oil & Gas Inc. ("Strata") (OTCBB: SOIGF) is pleased to announce the results of its drill program conducted earlier in 2007. Independent analysis of the drilling results and existing data available on a portion of the leases held by Strata gave an estimate of the original oil in place of 2.25 billion barrels of bitumen. This volume is considered to be a "High Estimate" of the in-place Discovered Resource made in accordance with the procedures of the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation (COGE) Handbook.

Norwest Corporation ("Norwest") of Calgary, Alberta, Canada recently completed this independent evaluation of in-place bitumen resources on a portion of Strata's Cadotte leases which cover an area of 29 sections (approximately 18,345 acres) in the Peace River region of Alberta. Norwest evaluated data from 57 wells in the area to determine the thickness variation of the ore. Geophysical logs and laboratory measurements for 18 of these wells were also evaluated.

Norwest found that in the Debolt and Elkton carbonate Formations on Strata's leases much of the ore zone exceeded a thickness of 10 metres and a bitumen grade of 10 percent by weight. The resource is bedded and continuous with strong correlation of the ore zones between adjacent wells in the target area.

At a minimum bitumen grade of 10 percent by weight and an ore thickness of more than 10 metres, Norwest has identified a "Low Estimate" of 1.3 billion barrels in place on Strata's Cadotte leases. Norwest's "Best Estimate," which has a grade cut-off for bitumen of 8 percent by weight but no thickness constraint, is 1.99 billion barrels in-place.

"We are very pleased with these initial results," stated Manny Dhinsa, President and CEO of Strata, "which demonstrate that our resource at Peace River is exploitable and substantial. Our next step is to drill a series of production test wells in order to determine the most favorable method for extracting the bitumen."

Norwest is currently preparing a formal valuation on behalf of Strata that will assess the economic parameters of the project based on a number of scenarios. Strata expects to complete an engineering...
