AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwire - October 5, 2009) - United States Oil & Gas Corporation (PINKSHEETS: [ USOG ]) today provided additional details of its planned second acquisition. 2009 sales are expected to be $8.0 million, up from 2008 audited financial results of $7.0 million. Early this year, USOG signed a letter of intent to purchase the private North Dakota-based regional provider of oil and gas products including propane, diesel, and gasoline. The target company owns a bulk storage plant, a fleet of tanker trucks, and a retail outlet. Management, which is contracted to remain with the business for a minimum of three years, has over 30 years experience in the industry.

The purchase, expected to close by year-end, includes all property, equipment and six acres of developable land located on the main highway. Alex Tawse, CEO of USOG, commented, "We have looked at numerous situations to grow our business and increase shareholder value and we feel that this acquisition provides the next piece of the puzzle." In addition to assets with a fair market value of $0.5 million, the target company has a long record of growth and financial stability and would provide increased geographic diversity for USOG.
