http://www.equitynet.net/pics/AAPH%20Report_Final.pdf

Report excerpts:

We are initiating a BUY rating for American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH), an emerging junior oil exploration and production (E&P) company that is actively seeking to capitalize on burgeoning demand and high oil prices by strategically acquiring and consolidating the operations of various properties (where possible), based on estimated reserves, ease of extraction and location.”

Solid Project Portfolio: The Company’s primary producing properties will be on the Mississippi Formation in North Oklahoma and Kansas, and are classic over-producers. The Mississippi’s geology is well understood as a result of the thousands of vertical wells drilled and produced there since the 1940s. The recent applications of horizontal drilling and multistage hydraulic fracturing, both utilized by AAPH, have demonstrated the potential for extracting significant additional quantities of oil and natural gas from the formation.

Business/Product Overview: About American Petro-Hunter Inc.
American Petro-Hunter, Inc. is an emerging, expertly managed oil exploration and production (E&P) company. AAPHs business strategy is based on acquiring and developing high quality projects with existing and expansion potential (mostly through horizontal drilling). The Company has a diversified portfolio of assets with four wells in production and one slated to produce any day. American Petro is currently operating three projects: Ripley in Oklahoma (one well soon), Poston in Trego County, Kansas (2 wells) and Yale in Oklahoma (4 wells). Ripley and Yale are collectively referred to as North Oklahoma. Poston is currently producing, as are two wells at Yale. By relying on experience, science and proven growth strategies in order to continuously balance a risk/reward portfolio, American Petro is focused on its existing leased properties to begin full production, while continually maintaining an eye to expand its acreage/leases at its North Oklahoma Project.

Company Strategy Brief
  • Acquire Capacity. The Company has stated that it intends to become a 500-1000 BOE producer in the next 12-36 months by aggressively developing its Poston and North Oklahoma. Through the second half of this year, we have predicted 323 barrels a day, so this goal certainly seems realistic.
  • Utilize Strategic Relationships. The Company continually strives to expand its network in North Oklahoma. Combined with successful efforts accounting, American Petro has been able to secure leases and develop properties with friendly strategic partners and run very lean from an outgoing cashflow perspective.
  • Increase Efficiencies (Geographic Concentration). Because of fragmentation, huge demand, and the surge in exploration activities due to skyrocketing oil prices, the U.S. oil industry (particularly the independent, junior players) is marked by inefficiencies. This is why we like the fact that American Petro has geographically concentrated its operations, which better suits a fledgling E&P company in our opinion. Furthermore, we like to see the “P” of “E&P” (production) being the primary focus. Securing leases in this environment has been a nice coup, so now is the time to focus on developing the wells and generating revenue in a region that has certainly shown itself to be a top producer and has the interest of big players.

Oil and Gas Stock News; American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) Updates Horizontal Drilling Progress at North Oklahoma Project

SCOTTSDALE, AZ � May 25, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH) ("American Petro-Hunter" or the "Company") today wishes to update the drilling progress of the NOM1H Horizontal well at the Company's North Oklahoma Project.
Directional drilling has now commenced. The K.O.P. (kick off point) has been reached, and the well is now entering the curved section of the hole. The well plan calls for approximately 1,600 feet of lateral to be drilled in the Mississippi formation before reaching a total depth of about 5,300 feet, with a true vertical depth of about 3,900 feet.
The NOM1H well is the first of a planned series of horizontal wells designed to test and develop oil and gas in the 100 foot thick limestone Mississippi Formation. Once the lateral portion reaches its engineered length, a period of testing and evaluation will commence.
In related news, a neighboring major independent oil company has received a permit to proceed with the drilling of its first horizontal test of the Woodford Shale in Payne County. This nearby well is engineered for a total depth of 9,177 feet with a true vertical depth of 4,300 feet. As American Petro-Hunter is planning a horizontal well into the Woodford Shale as part of our 2011 development program, the results of this neighboring well will prove instrumental towards the timing of our first horizontal efforts in the formation.
Company President Robert McIntosh states, "The lateral turn of the drill into the horizontal phase means we are now entering the objective pay zone in the Mississippi Formation. Over the next week, drilling operations will be closely monitored by the directional drilling engineer to ensure we stay in the Mississippi for the duration of the operation. The upcoming testing phase is a critical step in the determination of our next well as we gear up for a very busy summer of drilling."
About American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH)
The Company is a goal-oriented exploration and production (E&P) Company aiming to become an intermediate level oil and gas producer within 12 months. The Company is in production at the Poston Project in Trego County Kansas with new drilling activity and production underway at the North Oklahoma Oil Project. With the achievable target of becoming a 1000 BOE producer as our goal, American Petro-Hunter is actively on the "hunt" for domestic petroleum assets. Visit us at: www.americanpetrohunter.com

Oil and Gas Stocks News; EquityNet Research Initiates Analyst Coverage on American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH)

LOS ANGELES � May 23, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - EquityNet Research, an independent West Coast equity research firm based in Los Angeles, announced today that it has initiated research coverage on American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH).
A full copy of the report and disclosure requirements are available at EquityNet Research's website: www.equitynet.net.
American Petro-Hunter, Inc. is an emerging junior oil exploration and production (E&P) company that is actively seeking to capitalize on burgeoning demand and high oil prices by strategically acquiring and consolidating the operations of various properties (where possible), based on estimated reserves, ease of extraction and location.
Randy Lewis, CFA, Founder and Senior Analyst with EquityNet who is covering the Company, stated, "It is obvious that demand is and will remain very strong for oil into the foreseeable future and the market itself is huge. Valuations for most natural resource stocks have remained relatively strong and prices for the most part on the rise. Of course, oil prices have also skyrocketed this year. The late 2010 and early 2011 predictions of $80 a barrel this year have been blown out of the water, hitting nearly $127 a barrel at one point.
"Furthermore, it seems apparent that management enjoys strong relationships with various consultants, engineers and service providers in the regions in which it operates. We feel this could be a significant competitive advantage over similarly-sized peers."

Oil and Gas Stocks News Alert; American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) Commences Spud of Horizontal Well at North Oklahoma Project

SCOTTSDALE, AZ � May 18, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH) ("American Petro-Hunter" or the "Company") today is pleased to announce the spud of the NOM1H Horizontal well at the Company's North Oklahoma Project. Drilling commenced yesterday with the setting of surface casing and the well is drilling ahead.
This is the Company's first horizontal well and is the inaugural well in a planned series of horizontal wells designed to exploit the 100-foot thick limestone known as the Mississippi Formation. The NOM1H well is expected to take several weeks to reach its engineered total depth, following which it will undergo a period of testing and evaluation.
As reported earlier, the Mississippi Formation has been the focus of intense drilling and development activity which has seen large numbers of horizontal wells drilled, completed and put into production by companies such as Sandridge and Calyx in recent months. Exploration and development activity in the area is extremely competitive and publically disclosed information regarding oil and gas production rates of ongoing and recently drilled horizontal wells is regarded as tightly held information. The Company will endeavor to update stakeholders on a timely basis with drilling results as such information becomes available from the operator.
Company President Robert McIntosh states, "With the spud of the NOM1H well, the Company has implemented what we hope to be the first of many horizontal oil wells that will exploit and develop our acreage at the North Oklahoma Project. Over the coming weeks, the potential of the well will dictate subsequent development and is a cornerstone to our overall strategic plans for the project."

Woodford Shale and Bakken Oil and Gas Stocks; (OTC.BB: AAPH), (NasdaqGS: BEXP), (NYSE: DVN), (NYSE: MRO), (NYSE: CLR)

Point Roberts WA - May 17, 2011 - www.Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specialized in sector research including oil and gas stocks, issues a sector close up on oil and gas shale stocks as the plays heat up. High oil prices have brought in more players into the shale stock plays. An estimated 160 oil and gas companies are now in the Bakken play.
  • American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) 52 Week range of $0.24 - 0.93
  • Brigham Exploration Company (NasdaqGS: BEXP ) 52 Week range of $13.45 - 37.87

North American Bakken Oil Field Play - covering parts of Montana, North Dakota, and Saskatchewan.
The USGS estimate of 3.0 to 4.3 billion barrels of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil in the Bakken Formation, and a mean estimate of 3.65 billion barrels, is an estimate of what industry may recover if the entire area of prospective Bakken Formation is produced using current technology. The current USGS mean estimate is a 25-fold increase over the previous USGS estimate, in 1995, of 151 million barrels of undiscovered technically recoverable oil in the Bakken Formation. As of August 2009, cumulative oil production from the Bakken Formation totaled about 190 million barrels (up from 164 million barrels in March 2009, 149 million barrels in December 2008 and 135 million barrels in September 2008).

Woodford Shale Emerging as a Leading Domestic Oil and Gas Play
Recent Commentary: Patrick J. Murphy, of Murphy Analytics LLC
Full article: http://www.investorideas.com/CO/AAPH/news/2011/03301.asp
As noted by American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) CEO Robert McIntosh in the Company's January 2011 Corporate Newsletter, production in the Woodford Shale has skyrocketed over the last few years. CEO McIntosh and others have referred to the Woodford as a world class oil and gas target, an assertion that seems justified given that the Woodford Shale now ranks second domestically in gas production and fifth in oil production. Following is data and commentary related to the operations and outlook for some of the Woodford Shale's most active players.
Devon Energy (NYSE: DVN): In a presentation1 at the Oppenheimer Unconventional Oil and Gas Conference, DVN noted that its Woodford assets benefit from a low cost of entry at approximately $2,200 per acre and a low average royalty burden at approximately 21%. The Company also notes that it recently completed construction of a gas processing plant, and after drilling 87 wells in 2010, DVN plans to drill over 200 wells in the Cana-Woodford Shale in 2011. Discussing the Company's Q4 20102 earnings, CFO and Executive Vice President Jeffrey Agosta commented on DVN's interest in the shale:
"Moving to the Cana-Woodford Shale in Western Oklahoma, we continue to add to our acreage position during the fourth quarter and now have approximately 243,000 net acres. Devon is currently operating 23 out of the 39 rigs running play-wide."
Marathon Oil (NYSE: MRO): At a recent Credit Suisse conference, MRO noted its interest3 in the Anadarko Woodford Shale play, with 3 rigs operating currently and 8 planned by the end of 2011. The company also observed that returns there are among the highest of domestic resource plays, and while exiting 2010 at approximately 1,500 BOED, MRO estimates that, by 2015, it could reach a peak rate of 30,000 BOED. In the Company's Q4 20104 conference call, Executive Vice President David Roberts noted that MRO plans to more than double its acreage in the area:
"Marathon also holds 86,000 acres in the Anadarko Woodford area, an area where we have operated for decades, and we have line in sight on new opportunity to increase that position to over 100,000 acres shortly. Importantly, we will have eight rigs in the play by 2011 by the end of this year."

Recent Oklahoma Oil and Gas Stocks News;
Devon Energy Earns $416 Million in First-Quarter 2011; North American Onshore Production Increases 7 Percent
OKLAHOMA CITY---- Devon Energy Corporation (NYSE:DVN - News) today reported net earnings of $416 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, or $0.97 per common share ($0.97 per diluted common share). This compares with first-quarter 2010 net earnings of $1.2 billion, or $2.67 per common share ($2.66 per diluted common share). The decrease in quarterly earnings is primarily attributable to non-cash, unrealized changes in the fair value of oil, gas and NGL derivatives.
First-quarter 2011 financial results were impacted by certain items securities analysts typically exclude from their published estimates. The most significant of the adjusting items was a non-cash, unrealized loss on oil, gas and NGL derivatives of $254 million before-tax ($166 million after-tax). Excluding these adjusting items, Devon earned $575 million or $1.34 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2011. The adjusting items are discussed in more detail later in this news release.
Production Growth Exceeds Guidance, Driven By Strong Liquids Growth
Production from continuing operations averaged 629,000 oil-equivalent barrels (Boe) per day in the first quarter of 2011, in spite of curtailments related to severe winter weather. Compared to the first quarter of 2010, Devon’s North American onshore production increased seven percent and exceeded the top-end of the company’s guidance by 4,000 barrels per day. First-quarter production benefited from better than expected results from several core properties, including the Cana-Woodford and Barnett Shale.
