Re:   South Texas Oil Company
      Form 8-A12(g) Registration Statement filed on October 24, 2007
      File No. 000-50732

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      In accordance with Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933,
as  amended,  South  Texas  Oil  Company  (the "Company")  hereby withdraws the
Registration Statement on Form 8-A12(g) (File  NO.  000-50732),  filed  by  the
Registrant  on October 24, 2007 (the "Registration Statement").  The Company is
withdrawing the  Registration  Statement  because  the  Form  8-A12(g)  was  an
improper  filing.   The correct filing, Form 8-A12(b), will be filed subsequent
to this withdrawal.

      No securities were  sold  in  connection with the Registration Statement.
The Registrant respectfully requests that, in accordance with the provisions of
Rule 477(a) under the 1933 Act, the SEC  issue  an  order  granting the desired
withdrawal.



                                    Sincerely,


                                    /s/ Murray Conradie
