BNK Petroleum Inc.'s Acreage in Europe Increases to 3.5 Million

Calgary, May 19, 2010 (ots/PRNewswire)

BNK Petroleum Inc. (the
"Company")  announces that it has been  awarded a further concession
totalling approximately 840,000 acres in  Western Europe. The new
concession is located in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany and  brings the
Company's total acreage in Europe to 3.9 million gross (3.5  million
net) acres in a total of 4 basins, and in Germany to 2.4 million
acres (gross and net) in 3 basins.
The new concession and the Company's other concessions in the
North  Rhine-Westphalia, Thuringia and Lower Saxony regions of
Germany were  acquired for their multiple prospective shale gas
targets as well as, in  some instances, for secondary targets of Coal
Bed methane and tight gas  sands. This latest concession contains
certain minimum requirements which  must be fulfilled by BNK to
retain its interest. Some of the more  significant minimum
requirements consist of conducting geological work in  the first
year, acquiring seismic in the second year, drilling one vertical
well in both years three and four, and the drilling of one horizontal
well  in year five within each concession area.
The Company continues to await the potential grant of other
concessions that it has applied for and it also continues to apply
for  additional concessions.
BNK Petroleum Inc. also announces today that it has paid off the
remaining $2.8 million subordinated debt that it owed to Bankers
Petroleum  Ltd.
