CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Nov. 17, 2009) - TAMM Oil and Gas Corp. (OTCBB:TAMO) released a Progress Report today outlining planned activities on their Manning heavy oil project and initial exploration program forecasting an ultimate possible development potential of 65,000 – 85,000 BOPD for the Manning area.

On November 12, 2009 TAMM announced it received an updated independent determination of 3.14 Billion barrels of heavy oil in place for the company's holdings at Manning prepared by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd. of Calgary, Alberta.

Don Hryhor, Director and Exploration Advisor said, "TAMM is presently reviewing exploration potential for possible conventional and light-heavy oil prospects and "cold flow" drilling targets in preparation for the upcoming winter exploration program in our focus area at Manning."

"The initial direction of the exploration efforts will be to evaluate possible light oil targets, since such reserves would have a great impact on overall project economics and future development. The possible presence of light oil reserves on site would facilitate easy and inexpensive recovery of the known heavy oil reserves in place, and thus maximize profitability."

"It is estimated ultimate conventional oil potential could reach 3,000 – 10,000 BOPD, and cold flow or heavy oil potential production requiring minimal stimulation could be in the order of an additional 5,000 – 10,000 BOPD."

"Secondary recovery projects using cyclic steam or solvent injection, in situ commingling, or simple downhole heaters could result in significantly improved recovery factors which might be expected to result in a total ultimate production capability in the order of 60,000 to 85,000 BOPD throughout the Manning area based on a 25 year project life. This final phase would be subject to normal environmental review and regulatory approval which would likely take 2-3 years."
