Energy Stock News; Osage (OTCBB: OEDV), Slawson, and USEDC Continue to Expand Horizontal Mississippian Project

SAN DIEGO, CA - July 14, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy stocks newswire) - Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV) along with its partners, Slawson Exploration Company, Inc. and U.S. Energy Development Corporation are pleased to announce that their Nemaha Ridge Mississippian prospect has now reached 12,000 net mineral acres, an increase from 10,000 net acres announced in late May 2011.
"The growth of the horizontal Mississippian play in Oklahoma is accelerating at an amazing rate. Devon Energy is the latest major Oklahoma oil company to announce the acquisition of a significant land position prospective for the Mississippian and the Woodford Shale. With SandRidge Energy, Inc., Chesapeake Energy Corporation, and Range Resources already extensively involved in the horizontal Mississippian, it is beginning to look unanimous. The finest oil companies in Oklahoma have all chosen to participate in what appears to be one of the most economic onshore oil plays that we have seen in decades. At Osage, we feel that our scientific work has been substantially validated simply by the presence of these industry leaders in our focus play," stated Kim Bradford, President and CEO.
"With over 200 successful horizontal Mississippian wells already drilled in Oklahoma, the focus in this play is going to rapidly shift to execution and cost control. In that regard, with Slawson Exploration and U.S. Energy Development Corp., we have two of the very best in our corner. We are confident that the Nemaha Ridge will be a highly productive area and that we can efficiently extract the minerals, given our operating partner's horizontal success in the Bakken and other basins," stated Greg Franklin, VP Exploration.
