West Ranch Field History
Properties Overview



     The West  Ranch  Field is  located  approximately  25  miles  southeast  of
Victoria,  in Jackson County,  Texas.  The field was discovered in 1938 by Mobil
Oil and has  produced  in excess of 300 BCF gas and 300 MMBO  from  hundreds  of
wells.

     The  geology of West Ranch  consists of typical  Gulf Coast sand  sequences
with numerous stacked sand pays of both Miocene and Frio age rocks. Over 25 main
producing sands have been  identified  within the West Ranch  production  limits
with the Greta,  Glasscock,  41-A,  98-A and Ward sands being the most  prolific
producers.  These sands are historically high permeability,  high porosity sands
capable of producing high fluid rates.

     In the early 1980's the previous operator,  Hank Engelke,  became active in
the  region  through  acquisition  of a few  old  producing  well  bores.  After
reworking  geological  structure and net sand maps,  Hank was able to extend the
southwest  production  limits  of the field by the  drilling  of  infield  wells
targeting structural highs.

     Through a friendly  foreclosure  process,  PNP will be able to obtain clean
title in the properties  and is scheduled to take over  operations on January 1,
2002.

     The property  includes 35 wells  currently  producing  40-60 bopd through 6
active  producers  on gas lift.  After a detailed  engineering  analysis  of the
property, PNP has developed a plan, which focuses on the re-establishing of shut
in wells to active status, add compression, salt water handling and disposal and
will quickly add value to the property while minimizing capital expense.

Planned Development Stages

PHASE 1:
     During the first 30 days, PNP will focus on increasing the  compression and
ability to use make up gas from the  Florida  Pipeline  system  through  Reliant
Field Services.  Next,  turning on four more wells to continue to increase daily
production.

PHASE 2:
     The  second  30 days will  consist  of  optimization  of the field gas lift
system and production  facilities while systemically testing 1 well on sub pump.
A total of three  new  wells  will be added as well as  construction  of  larger
flowlines  on the Schuech E Lease.  The Turner D-2 and D-9 will be tested in the
Glasscock.

PHASE 3:
     The third 30 days will  consist of  continued  field  optimization,  adding
compression  up to 8 mmscfpd and  increasing  the SWD  capabilities.  We plan on
moving in  pumping  units on the Mudd 1 and  Schuech  B-1 and  recompleting  the
Schuech E-1 to the Glasscock.



                                      -102-



PHASE 4:
     The fourth 30 days will  include the  re-completing  of the Schuech B-5 and
Turner C-4 wells into the Ward Sand.  Both will be  equipped  with  larger  3.5"
tubing for high volume lifting capacities.

PHASE 5:
     The fifth 30 days will include two plug back  re-completions in the Bennett
R-2 and R-10.

PHASE 6:
     The sixth 30 days will  include two  re-completions  in the Bennett R-1 and
G-1 wells.

PHASE 7:
     The seventh 30 days will include the plug back re-completion of the Schuech
B-2 well into the Glasscock sand and include 3/5" tubing and a submersible pump.


Capital Expenditures
     At this time, it is estimated that the total project  capital  expenditures
will be approximately $ 451,000 with Phases 4-7 completed out of cashflow.


Marketing
     West Ranch Field lies on a major pipeline system  consisting of HPL's 20" ,
Valero's 24", and Eastern Gas 24" pipelines to only name a few. Currently, Flint
Hills LP  purchases  the crude oil at Upper Gulf Coast Index plus $ 3.25 per bbl
and Florida Pipeline is our gas sales interconnect at the spot market.


Terms
     PNP is offering working  interest in the properties.  PNP is offering 5% WI
for  $49,995  and 10% for  $99,990 in the entire  project  plus its share of the
current proposed $ 186,500 workover  budget.  (This budget is estimated  through
the third Phase above.)

     PNP had developed  additional projects for future investment  opportunities
including development of EOR and Gas Storage Projects.
