TALISMAN GRANTEDADDITIONAL ACREAGE FOR BLOCK PM-3 CAA

BETWEEN MALAYSIA AND VIETNAM

Calgary, Alberta – June 07, 2005 – Talisman Malaysia Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Talisman Energy Inc., has been granted additional acreage to be included within the Block PM-3 Commercial Arrangement Area (CAA) offshore Malaysia and Vietnam.

“The additional acreage to Block PM-3 CAA represents another important step in our strategy to grow our Malaysia and Vietnam business,” said Dr. Jim Buckee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Talisman Energy Inc. “The PM-3 CAA additional acreage contains an extension of the highly prospective PM-3 CAA play and offers the potential for small field discoveries which, if economical, can be quickly tied back to the existing PM-3 CAA facilities.”

Block PM-3 CAA currently covers an area of 348,000 acres and contains six oil and gas fields, which comprise the PM-3 CAA Phase 2 & 3 project.  The PM-3 CAA project is currently producing 60,000 bbls/d oil and 270 mmcf/d of gas (gross sales volumes).  The additional acreage includes another 148,000 acres located on the southeastern border of the original PM-3 CAA block.

During the exploration term of the PM-3 CAA additional acreage, Talisman Malaysia Limited will acquire a new 3D seismic survey and drill one exploration well.

Talisman Malaysia Limited together with Talisman Malaysia (PM3) Limited, holds a 41.44% interest in Block PM-3 CAA and Talisman Malaysia Limited is the operator of the block.  Petronas Carigali Sdn. Bhd. holds a 46.06% interest and PetroVietnam Investment & Development Company holds a 12.5% interest.  Petronas Carigali is the exploration and production arm of PETRONAS, the national oil company of Malaysia, while PetroVietnam Investment & Development Company is a subsidiary of PetroVietnam, the national oil company of Vietnam.

Talisman Energy Inc. is a large, independent oil and gas producer, with operations in Canada and, through its subsidiaries, the North Sea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Algeria, the United States and Trinidad and Tobago.  Talisman's subsidiaries also conduct business in Colombia, Qatar and Peru.  Talisman has adopted the International Code of Ethics for Canadian Business and is committed to maintaining high standards of excellence in corporate citizenship and social responsibility wherever its business is conducted.  Talisman's shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada and New York Stock Exchange in the United States under the symbol TLM.
