Form 10-KSB for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2004 File No. 0-25386 RE: Response Letter of January 27, 2006 Dear Mr. Lovejoy: We have reviewed your filing and have the following comments. We have limited our review to only your financial statements and related disclosures and do not intend to expand our review to other portions of your documents. Where indicated, we think you should revise your document in response to these comments. If you disagree, we will consider your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or a revision is unnecessary. Please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we may better understand your disclosure. After reviewing this information, we may raise additional comments. Please understand that the purpose of our review process is to assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments or any other aspect of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter. Form 10-KSB for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2004 Engineering Comments Exploration, Development, and Production Activities, page 7 Exploratory Activities in Poland, page 67 Fences I Project Area, page 7 1. We note your response number 2. As previously requested, amend your current document to remove the reference to 40 BCF of recoverable in Fences I. Please confirm that, in future filings, you will only disclose reserves that meet the definition of proved reserves as found in Rule 4-10(a) of Regulation S-X. Management`s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, page 22 Introduction, page 22 2. You originally reported that your goals do not necessarily coincide with those of your partners. In your response number 3 you have deleted that statement. If, in fact, you and your partners have different goals, that may be material information. Please advise why you have deleted that language. Supplemental Information, page F-26 Disclosure About Oil and Gas Properties and Producing Activities, page F-26 Summary Oil and Gas Reserve Data, page F-27 Estimated Quantities of Proved Reserves, page F-27 3. Please reconcile your response number 4 to the fact that you reported under the section called Market and Price Risk that the limited volume and source of your gas production means that you cannot assure uninterruptible production or production in amounts that would be meaningful to industrial users. You also state that there is no competitive market for the sale of gas in Poland. Closing Comments As appropriate, please amend your filing and respond to these comments within 10 business days or tell us when you will provide us with a response. You may wish to provide us with marked copies of the amendment to expedite our review. Please furnish a cover letter with your amendment that keys your responses to our comments and provides any requested information. Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review. Please understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing your amendment and responses to our comments. We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosure in the filing to be certain that the filing includes all information required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that they have provided all information investors require for an informed investment decision. Since the company and its management are in possession of all facts relating to a company`s disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they have made. In connection with responding to our comments, please provide, in writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that: * the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; * staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and * the company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. In addition, please be advised that the Division of Enforcement has access to all information you provide to the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance in our review of your filing or in response to our comments on your filing.
