PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS                   SUBJECT TO COMPLETION SEPTEMBER 6, 2005

                          HOUSTON AMERICAN ENERGY CORP.
                               ___________________

           $2,125,000 of 8% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes
                        2,316,250 Shares of Common Stock

     This prospectus covers resales by selling securityholders of our 8%
Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes due 2010 and shares of our common
stock into which the Notes are convertible.  This prospectus also covers resales
by selling securityholders of shares of our common stock underlying warrants
issued to a placement agent in connection with the placement of the Notes.

     The Notes will mature on May 1, 2010. We will pay interest on the Notes
each April 20 and October 20. We will make the first interest payment on October
20, 2005.

     We do not have the right to redeem the Notes at our option prior to May 1,
2007.

     The Notes are convertible into our common stock at any time before May 1,
2010 at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment for
specified events.

     Holders may require us to repurchase their Notes upon the occurrence of
certain designated events in cash at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes
being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

     The Notes are subordinated unsecured obligations and rank, in right of
payment, junior to all of our existing and future unsecured indebtedness except
for future indebtedness specifically designated as being equal or subordinate to
the Notes. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any secured
indebtedness.

     The selling securityholders may sell all or a portion of their securities
through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices or at
privately negotiated prices.  We will not receive any part of the proceeds from
the sale of these shares by the selling securityholders.

     Our common stock is traded on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board under the
symbol "HUSA.OB".  The last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTC
Electronic Bulletin Board on August 29, 2005 was $2.20 per share.  There is no
trading market in our Notes.

     INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK AND NOTES INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. SEE
"RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 4 OF THIS PROSPECTUS.

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

You should read the following summary together with the more detailed
information regarding our company and the common stock being sold in this
offering appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and in our Financial Statements
and related notes and other documents incorporated herein by reference.

                                   OUR COMPANY

Houston American Energy Corp. is an oil and gas exploration and production
company.  In addition to seeking out oil and gas prospects using advanced
seismic techniques, we utilize the contacts of John F. Terwilliger, our sole
executive officer, to identify potential acquisition targets in the Onshore
Texas Gulf Coast Region of the State of Texas, where Mr. Terwilliger has been
involved in oil and gas exploration and production activities since 1983.
Further, we have through an interest in a limited liability company, interests
in multiple concessions in the South American country of Colombia.  As a result,
we expect to be active in Colombia for the foreseeable future.  Moreover, as
well as our own drilling activities and acquisition strategy, we may also
encourage others in the oil and gas industry to enter into partnerships or joint
ventures with us for the purpose of acquiring properties and conducting drilling
and exploration activities.

Our principal executive offices are located at 801 Travis Street, Suite 2020,
Houston, Texas 77007 and our telephone number is (713) 222-6966.

                                  RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before making an investment
decision, you should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as
other information we include in this prospectus. Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us or that we deem currently immaterial may
also impair our business operations. The risks and uncertainties described below
are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are
unaware of, or that we currently deem immaterial, also may become important
factors that affect us. If any of the following risks occur, our business,
financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely
affected.

RISKS RELATED TO THE OIL AND NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY AND OUR BUSINESS

A SUBSTANTIAL OR EXTENDED DECLINE IN OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRICES MAY ADVERSELY
AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND OUR
ABILITY TO MEET OUR CAPITAL EXPENDITURE OBLIGATIONS AND FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS.

     As an independent oil and gas producer, our revenue, profitability and
future rate of growth are substantially dependent upon the prevailing prices of,
and demand for, natural gas, oil, and condensate.  Our realized profits affect
the amount of cash flow available for capital expenditures.  Our ability to
maintain or increase our borrowing capacity and to obtain additional capital on
attractive terms is also substantially dependent upon oil and gas prices.
Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to wide fluctuation in response to
relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, oil and gas, market
uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control.
Among the factors that can cause the volatility of oil and gas prices are:

  -  worldwide or regional demand for energy, which is affected by economic
     conditions;
  -  the domestic and foreign supply of natural gas and oil;
  -  weather conditions;
  -  domestic and foreign governmental regulations;
  -  political conditions in natural gas and oil producing regions;
  -  the ability of members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries
     to agree upon and maintain oil prices and production levels; and
  -  the price and availability of other fuels.

A SUBSTANTIAL PERCENTAGE OF OUR PROPERTIES ARE UNDEVELOPED; THEREFORE THE RISK
ASSOCIATED WITH OUR SUCCESS IS GREATER THAN WOULD BE THE CASE IF THE MAJORITY OF
OUR PROPERTIES WERE CATEGORIZED AS PROVED DEVELOPED PRODUCING.

     Because a substantial percentage of our properties are unproven
(approximately 99%), or proved undeveloped, we will require significant
additional capital to prove and develop such properties before they may become
productive. Further, because of the inherent uncertainties associated with
drilling for oil and gas, some of these properties may never be developed to the
extent that they result in positive cash flow. Even if we are successful in our
development efforts, it could take several years for a significant portion of
our undeveloped properties to be converted to positive cash flow.

     While our current business plan is to fund the development costs with cash
flow from our other producing properties, if such cash flow is not sufficient we
may be forced to seek alternative sources for cash, through the issuance of
additional equity or debt securities, increased borrowings or other means.


                                        4

DRILLING FOR AND PRODUCING OIL AND NATURAL GAS ARE HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES WITH
MANY UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION
OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

     Our development, exploitation and exploration activities may be
unsuccessful for many reasons, including weather, cost overruns, equipment
shortages and mechanical difficulties.  Moreover, the successful drilling of a
natural gas and oil well does not ensure a profit on investment.  A variety of
factors, both geological and market related can cause a well to become
uneconomical or only marginally profitable.  Our business involves a variety of
operating risks which may adversely affect our profitability, including:

  -  fires;
  -  explosions;
  -  blow-outs and surface cratering;
  -  uncontrollable flows of oil, natural gas and formation water;
  -  natural disasters, such as hurricanes and other adverse weather conditions;
  -  pipe, cement or pipeline failures;
  -  casing collapses;
  -  embedded oil field drilling and service tools;
  -  abnormally pressured formations; and
  -  environmental hazards, such as natural gas leaks, oil spills, pipeline
     ruptures and discharges of toxic gases.

     In accordance with industry practice, our insurance protects us against
some, but not all, operational risks.  Further, we do not carry business
interruption insurance at levels that would provide enough cash for us to
continue operating without access to additional funds.  As pollution and
environmental risks generally are not fully insurable, our insurance may be
inadequate to cover any losses or exposure for such liability.

RESERVE ESTIMATES DEPEND ON MANY ASSUMPTIONS THAT MAY TURN OUT TO BE INACCURATE.
ANY MATERIAL INACCURACIES IN THESE RESERVE ESTIMATES OR UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS
WILL MATERIALLY AFFECT THE QUANTITIES AND PRESENT VALUE OF OUR RESERVES.

     In accordance with applicable requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, we estimate our proved reserves and future net cash flows using
sales prices and costs estimated to be in effect as of the date we make the
reserve estimates.  We hold the estimates constant throughout the life of the
properties, except to the extent a contract specifically provides for
escalation.  Gas prices, which have fluctuated widely in recent years, affect
estimated quantities of proved reserves and future net cash flows.  Any
estimates of natural gas and oil reserves and their values are inherently
uncertain, including many factors beyond our control.  The reserve data
contained in this prospectus represent only estimates.  Reservoir engineering is
a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and
oil that cannot be measured in an exact manner.  The accuracy of reserve
estimates is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and
geological interpretation and judgment.  As a result, estimates of different
engineers, including those we use, may vary.  In addition, estimates of reserves
may be revised based upon actual production, results of future development and
exploration activities, prevailing natural gas and oil prices, operating costs
and other factors, which revision may be material.  Accordingly, reserve
estimates may be different from the quantities of natural gas and oil that we
are ultimately able to recover and are highly dependent upon the accuracy of the
underlying assumptions.  Our estimated proved reserves have not been filed with
or included in reports to any federal agency.


                                        5

WE ARE SUBJECT TO COMPLEX LAWS THAT CAN AFFECT THE COST, MANNER OR FEASIBILITY
OF DOING BUSINESS.

     Our business and the oil and gas industry in general are subject to
extensive laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations.
As such, we may be required to make large expenditures to comply with
environmental and other governmental regulations.  State and federal
regulations, including those enforced by the Texas Railroad Commission as the
primary regulator of the oil and gas industry in the State of Texas, are
generally intended to prevent waste of oil and gas, protect rights to produce
oil and gas between owners in a common reservoir and control contamination of
the environment. Matters subject to regulation in the State of Texas include:

  -  location and density of wells;
  -  the handling of drilling fluids and obtaining discharge permits for
     drilling operations;
  -  accounting for and payment of royalties on production from state, federal
     and Indian lands;
  -  bonds for ownership, development and production of natural gas and oil
     properties;
  -  transportation of natural gas and oil by pipelines;
  -  operation of wells and reports concerning operations; and
  -  taxation

     Under these laws and regulations, we could be liable for personal injuries,
property damage, oil spills, discharge of hazardous materials, remediation and
clean-up costs and other environmental damages.  Failure to comply with these
laws and regulations also may result in the suspension or termination of our
operations and subject us to administrative, civil and criminal penalties.
Moreover, these laws and regulations could change in ways that substantially
increase our operating costs.

     Natural gas operations are subject to various types of regulation at the
federal, state and local levels.  Prior to commencing drilling activities for a
well, we are required to procure permits and/or approvals for the various stages
of the drilling process from the applicable state and local agencies. Permits
and approvals include those for the drilling of wells, and regulations including
maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells and the
location of wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the surface use and
restoration of properties on which wells are drilled, the plugging and
abandoning of wells, and the disposal of fluids used in connection with
operations.

     Our operations are also subject to various conservation laws and
regulations.  These include the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing
units and the density of wells, which may be drilled and the unitization or
pooling of natural gas properties.  In this regard, some states allow the forced
pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states
rely primarily or exclusively on voluntary pooling of lands and leases.  In
areas where pooling is voluntary, it may be more difficult to form units, and
therefore, more difficult to develop a project if the operator owns less than
100 percent of the leasehold.

OUR OPERATIONS MAY INCUR SUBSTANTIAL LIABILITIES TO COMPLY WITH THE
ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

     Our operations are subject to additional laws and regulations governing the
discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to
environmental protection.  Public interest in the protection of the environment
has increased dramatically in recent years.  It appears that the trend of more
expansive and stricter environmental legislation and regulations will continue.


                                        6

     We generate wastes that may be subject to the Federal Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and comparable state statutes, which have limited the
approved methods of disposal for some hazardous wastes. Additional wastes may be
designated as "hazardous wastes" in the future, and therefore become subject to
more rigorous and costly operating and disposal requirements.  Although
management believes that we utilize good operating and waste disposal practices,
prior owners and operators of our properties may not have done so, and
hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been disposed of or released on or under
the properties owned or leased by us or on or under locations where wastes have
been taken for disposal.  These properties and the wastes disposed on the
properties may be subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), RCRA and analogous state laws, which
require the removal and remediation of previously disposed wastes, including
waste disposed of or released by prior owners or operators.

     CERCLA and similar state laws impose liability, without regard to fault or
the legality of the original conduct, on some classes of persons that are
considered to have contributed to the release of a "hazardous substance" into
the environment. These persons include the owner or operator of the disposal
site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or
arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site. Persons
who are or were responsible for release of hazardous substances under CERCLA may
be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the
hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for
damages to natural resources, and it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners
and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage
allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment.

OUR OPERATIONS IN COLOMBIA ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS RELATING TO POLITICAL AND
ECONOMIC INSTABILITY.

     We currently have interests in four oil and gas concessions in Colombia and
anticipate that operations in Colombia will constitute a substantial element of
our strategy going forward.  The political climate in Colombia is unstable and
could be subject to radical change over a very short period of time.  In the
event of a significant negative change in the political or economic climate in
Colombia, we may be forced to abandon or suspend our operations in Colombia.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND OTHER KEY PERSONNEL, THE LOSS OF
ANY OF WHOM COULD DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.

     Our success will depend on our ability to retain John F. Terwilliger, our
sole executive officer, and to attract other experienced management and
non-management employees, including engineers, geoscientists and other technical
and professional staff. We will depend, to a large extent, on the efforts,
technical expertise and continued employment of such personnel and members of
our management team. If members of our management team should resign or we are
unable to attract the necessary personnel, our business operations could be
adversely affected.

COMPETITION IN THE OIL AND NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY IS INTENSE, WHICH MAY ADVERSELY
AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE.

     Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense and we compete with
major and independent oil and gas companies with respect to the acquisition of
producing properties and undeveloped acreage.  Our competitors actively bid for
desirable oil and gas properties, as well as for the equipment and labor
required to operate and develop the properties.  Many of those competitors,
however, have financial resources and exploration and development budgets that
are substantially greater than ours and may be able to absorb the burden of any
changes in federal, state and local laws and regulations more easily than can
we, which would adversely affect our competitive position.  These competitors
may be able to pay more for natural gas and oil properties and may be able to
define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties than we
can.  Our ability to acquire additional properties and develop new and existing
properties in the future will depend on our capability to conduct operations, to
evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in this
highly competitive environment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK AND NOTES

THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK, AND THEREFORE OF THE NOTES, MAY FLUCTUATE
SIGNIFICANTLY, AND THIS MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO RESELL THE NOTES OR
COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THE NOTES WHEN YOU WANT OR AT PRICES
YOU FIND ATTRACTIVE.

     The price of our common stock quoted on the OTCBB constantly changes. We
expect that the market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate.  In
addition, because the Notes are convertible into our common stock, volatility or
depressed prices for our common stock could have a similar effect on the trading
price of the Notes.

     Our stock price may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of
which are beyond our control.  These factors include:

     -    quarterly variations in our operating results;
     -    operating results that vary from the expectations of management,
          securities analysts and investors;
     -    changes in expectations as to our future financial performance;
     -    announcements by us, our partners or our competitors of leasing and
          drilling activities;
     -    the operating and securities price performance of other companies that
          investors believe are comparable to us;
     -    future sales of our equity or equity-related securities;
     -    changes in general conditions in our industry and in the economy, the
          financial markets and the domestic or international political
          situation;
     -    fluctuations in oil and gas prices;
     -    departures of key personnel; and
     -    regulatory considerations.

     In addition, in recent years, the stock market in general has experienced
extreme price and volume fluctuations.  This volatility has had a significant
effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons
often unrelated to their operating performance.  These broad market fluctuations
may adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating results.

THE SALE OF A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY AFFECT OUR
STOCK PRICE.

     Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock or equity-related
securities in the public market or privately, or the perception that such sales
could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our common
stock and the value of the Notes and could impair our ability to raise capital
through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities.  No prediction
can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of common
stock or the availability of shares of common stock for future sale, will have
on the trading price of our common stock or the value of the Notes.


                                        8

THE RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF OUR NOTES TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES ARE
EFFECTIVELY SUBORDINATED TO THE RIGHTS OF OUR EXISTING AND FUTURE SECURED AND/OR
SENIOR CREDITORS.

     Holders of our existing and future secured and/or senior indebtedness will
have claims that are prior to claims as holders of the Notes to the extent of
the value of the assets securing that other indebtedness.  As a result, the
Notes are subordinated to any such secured and/or senior indebtedness.  As of
December 31, 2004, $1 million of our debt was senior.  Upon any distribution to
our creditors in a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or any similar
proceeding relating to us or our property, holders of our secured and/or senior
indebtedness will have a prior claim to those of our assets that constitute
their collateral.  Holders of the Notes will participate ratably with all
holders of our unsecured indebtedness that is deemed to be of the same class or
ranking as the notes based upon the respective amounts owed to each holder or
creditor, in our remaining assets.  In any of the foregoing events, we cannot
assure that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the Notes.  As
a result, holders of Notes may receive less, ratably, than holders of our
secured and/or senior indebtedness.

THE NOTES CONTAIN NO FINANCIAL COVENANTS AND PROVIDE ONLY LIMITED PROTECTION IN
THE EVENT CERTAIN SPECIFIED EVENTS OCCUR.

     The Notes contain no financial covenants.  In particular, the Notes contain
no covenants that limit our ability to pay dividends or make distributions on or
redeem our capital stock or incur additional debt and, therefore, protect
holders in the event of a highly leveraged or other similar transaction.  In
addition, the requirement that we offer to repurchase the Notes is limited to
certain specified events set out in the Notes.  Accordingly, we could enter into
certain transactions, such as acquisitions, refinancings or a recapitalization,
that could affect our business, financial condition, capital structure and the
value of our common stock but would not constitute such a specified event
entitling holders of Notes to require us to offer to repurchase the Notes.  Our
obligations to offer to redeem the Notes upon a designated event would not
necessarily afford holders protection in the event of a reorganization, merger
or similar transaction involving us.

THE REDEMPTION RIGHTS IN THE NOTES TRIGGERED BY A SPECIFIED EVENT COULD
DISCOURAGE A POTENTIAL ACQUIRER.

     The redemption rights in the Notes triggered by specified events could
discourage a potential acquirer.  The redemption feature is not the result of
management's knowledge of any specific effort to obtain control of us by means
of a merger, tender offer or solicitation, or part of a plan by management to
adopt a series of anti-takeover provisions.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO REPURCHASE THE NOTES FOR CASH WHEN REQUIRED BY THE HOLDERS,
INCLUDING FOLLOWING SPECIFIED EVENTS.

     Holders of the Notes have the right to require us to repurchase the Notes
upon the occurrence of specified events prior to maturity.  Any of our future
debt agreements may contain a similar provision.  We may not have sufficient
funds to make the required repurchase in cash at such time or the ability to
arrange necessary financing on acceptable terms.  In addition, our ability to
repurchase the Notes in cash may be limited by law or the terms of other
agreements relating to our debt outstanding at the time.  If we fail to
repurchase the Notes in cash as required by the Notes, it would constitute an
event of default under the Notes which, in turn, would also likely constitute an
event of default under our then existing debt instruments.


                                        9

THERE IS CURRENTLY NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE NOTES, AND AN ACTIVE TRADING MARKET
MAY NOT DEVELOP FOR THE NOTES.  THE FAILURE OF A MARKET TO DEVELOP FOR THE NOTES
COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE LIQUIDITY AND VALUE OF THE NOTES.

     The Notes are a new issue of securities, and there is no existing market
for the notes.  We do not intend to list the Notes, on any securities exchange
or for quotation of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system.  A
market may not develop for the Notes, and we cannot assure you as to the
liquidity of any market that may develop for the Notes.  If an active, liquid
market does not develop for the Notes, the market price and liquidity of the
Notes may be adversely affected.  If any of the Notes are traded after their
initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering
price.

     The liquidity of the trading market, if any, and future trading prices of
the Notes will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the market
price of our common stock, our ability to register the resale of the Notes and
the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, prevailing
interest rates, our operating results, financial performance and prospects, the
market for similar securities and the overall securities market, and may be
adversely affected by unfavorable changes in these factors.  Historically, the
market for convertible debt securities has been subject to disruptions that have
caused volatility in prices.  It is possible that the market for the Notes will
be subject to disruptions that may have a negative effect on the holders of the
Notes, regardless of our operating results, financial performance or prospects.

THE NOTES ARE NOT RATED.

     The Notes are not, and we do not expect them to be, rated.  However, if one
or more rating agencies rates the Notes and assigns the Notes a rating lower
than the rating expected by investors, or reduces its rating in the future, the
market price of the Notes and our common stock would likely decline.

THE CONVERSION RATE OF THE NOTES MAY NOT BE ADJUSTED FOR ALL DILUTIVE EVENTS,
INCLUDING THIRD-PARTY TENDER OR EXCHANGE OFFERS THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
TRADING PRICE OF THE NOTES OR THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
CONVERSION OF THE NOTES.

     The conversion rate of the Notes is subject to adjustment upon certain
events, including the issuance of stock dividends on our common stock, the
issuance of rights or warrants, subdivisions, combinations, distributions of
capital stock.  The conversion rate will not be adjusted for certain other
events, such as third-party tender or exchange offers or the sale of our equity
securities or equity-linked securities to third parties, that may adversely
affect the trading price of the Notes or the shares of our common stock issuable
upon conversion of the Notes.

OUR CHARTER AND BYLAWS, AS WELL AS PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW, COULD MAKE IT
DIFFICULT FOR A THIRD PARTY TO ACQUIRE OUR COMPANY AND ALSO COULD LIMIT THE
PRICE THAT INVESTORS ARE WILLING TO PAY IN THE FUTURE FOR SHARES OF OUR COMMON
STOCK AND THE NOTES.

     Delaware corporate law and our charter and bylaws contain provisions that
could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of our company or our
management.  These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it
more difficult for our stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate
actions without the concurrence of our management or board of directors.  These
provisions:


                                       10

     -    authorize our board of directors to issue "blank check" preferred
          stock, which is preferred stock that can be created and issued by our
          board of directors, without stockholder approval, with rights senior
          to those of our common stock;
     -    provide for a staggered board of directors and three-year terms for
          directors, so that no more than one-third of our directors could be
          replaced at any annual meeting;
     -    provide that directors may be removed only for cause; and
     -    establish advance notice requirements for submitting nominations for
          election to the board of directors and for proposing matters that can
          be acted upon by stockholders at a meeting.

     We are also subject to anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law, which
could also delay or prevent a change of control.  Taken together, these
provisions of our charter and bylaws, Delaware law may discourage transactions
that otherwise could provide for the payment of a premium over prevailing market
prices of our common stock and, possibly, the Notes, and also could limit the
price that investors are willing to pay in the future for shares of our common
stock and the Notes.

OUR MANAGEMENT OWNS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR COMMON STOCK, GIVING THEM
INFLUENCE OR CONTROL IN CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER MATTERS, AND THEIR
INTERESTS COULD DIFFER FROM THOSE OF OTHER SHAREHOLDERS

     Our current executive officers and directors, owns approximately 65% of our
outstanding common stock.  As a result, directors and officers are in a position
to significantly influence or control the outcome of matters requiring a
shareholder vote, including the election of directors, the adoption of any
amendment to our certificate of incorporation or bylaws, and the approval of
mergers and other significant corporate transactions. Management's control of
the company may delay or prevent a change of control on terms favorable to the
other shareholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of other
shareholders.

                                 DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not paid dividends in the past and we intend to retain earnings, if any,
and will not pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future
determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the board of
directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of
operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and such other
factors as the board of directors may deem relevant.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Houston American Energy was incorporated in April 2001, for the purposes of
seeking oil and gas exploration and development prospects.  Since inception, we
have sought out prospects utilizing the expertise and business contacts of John
F. Terwilliger, our sole executive officer. Through the third quarter of 2002,
the acquisition targets were in the Gulf Coast region of Texas and Louisiana,
where Mr. Terwilliger has been involved in oil and gas exploration for many
years. In the fourth quarter 2002, we initiated international efforts through a
Colombian joint venture more fully described below.  Domestically and
internationally, the strategy is to be a non-operating partner with exploration
and production companies that have much larger resources and operations.

OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Our operations are exclusively devoted to natural gas and oil exploration and
production.

Our focus, to date and for the foreseeable future, is the identification of oil
and gas drilling prospects and participation in the drilling and production of
prospects.  We typically identify prospects and assemble various drilling
partners to participate in, and fund, drilling activities.  We may retain an
interest in a prospect for our services in identifying and assembling prospects
without any contribution on our part to drilling and completion costs or we may
contribute to drilling and completion costs based on our proportionate interest
in a prospect.

We derive our revenues from our interests in oil and gas production sold from
prospects in which we own an interest, whether through royalty interests,
working interest or other arrangements.  Our revenues vary directly based on a
combination of production volumes from wells in which we own an interest, market
prices of oil and natural gas sold and our percentage interest in each prospect.

Our well operating expenses vary depending upon the nature of our interest in
each prospect.  We may bear no interest or a proportionate interest in the costs
of drilling, completing and operating prospects on which we own an interest.
Other than well drilling, completion and operating expenses, our principal
operating expenses relate to our efforts to identify and secure prospects,
comply with our various reporting obligations as a publicly held company and
general overhead expenses.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS DURING 2004 AND 2005

Drilling Activities

During 2004, we drilled four successful on-shore domestic wells as follows:

-    A test well in San Patricio County, Texas, the Saint Paul Prospect Garza
     #1, was drilled in January 2004 and completed as a natural gas well.
     Natural gas sales from the well began March 1, 2004. We hold a 5% working
     interest in the well.

-    A test well in Vermillion Parish, Louisiana, the LaFurs #F-16, was drilled
     in May 2004 and completed as a natural gas well. Natural gas sales from the
     well began in September 2004. We hold a 3% working interest in the well.


                                       13

-    A test well in Acadia Parish, Louisiana, the Hoffpauer #1 (formerly, the
     Baronet #1), on the 620-acre Crowley Prospect, was drilled in September
     2004. After reaching a depth of 12,042 feet, the well encountered a stuck
     drill pipe. The well was plugged back and a side track attempt was made.
     After encountering a second stuck drill pipe and following negotiations
     with the operator, the well was taken off of turnkey, intermediate casing
     was set and a completion rig is being contracted with the objective of
     completing a well in the Camerina sands that produced gas shows. The well
     was completed and production began in December 2004. We hold a 3% working
     interest in the well.

-    A test well in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, the SL18077 #1, was drilled
     in December 2004. The well was completed in January 2005. We hold a 1.8%
     working interest in the well.

We also participated in two dry holes drilled during 2004, the Hutchins Peareson
#1 and the Hutchins Peareson #2 drilled in Wharton County, Texas.

Through August 10, 2005, we had drilled two on-shore domestic wells as follows:

-    Drilling of a 10,600-foot well, the first well, on the South Sibley
     Prospect in Webster Parish, Louisiana was completed in May 2005 with
     multiple pay sands apparently identified. Sales from the well commenced
     June 28, 2005. We hold a 7.5% working interest at an 8.3% net revenue
     interest carried to point of sales for the well.

-    Drilling of a 12,100-foot well, the Baronet #2 well, on the Crowley
     Prospect in Acadia Parish, Louisiana was completed in April 2005. The well
     tested the Hayes Sand and flanks a natural gas well that produced 1.6 BCF
     of natural gas from the Hayes Sand. After logging 21-feet of apparent net
     pay, hole conditions deteriorated before logging could be completed. The
     well was completed and production began in June 2005. We hold a 3% working
     interest and 2.25% net revenue interest until payout for the well.

Assuming the Baronet #2 performs consistently, we plan to drill a developmental
well on the Crowley Prospect during the fourth quarter of 2005.

During 2004, we drilled seven international wells in South America as follows:

-    Drilling of six offset wells on the Cara Cara concession in Colombia was
     completed with production commencing on the Jaguar #2 in March 2004, the
     Bengala #2 in April 2004, the Jaguar #6 in July 2004, the Jaguar #12 in
     September 2004 and the Jaguar #3A in October 2004. The sixth well, the Cara
     Cara #1 is shut in pending evaluation. We hold a 1.59% working interest in
     each of the wells.

-    An oil well, the Tambaqui #2, was drilled and successfully completed under
     the Company's Tambaqui Association Contract in Columbia and began
     production in June 2004. The Company holds a 12.6% working interest and an
     11.59% net revenue interest in the well.

Through August 10, 2005, we had drilled six international wells in Colombia as
follows:

-    Drilling of 5 offset wells on the Cara Cara concession in Colombia was
     completed with production commencing on the Bengala #4, #5, #6 and #7 and
     the Jaguar #5 in the first and second quarters of 2005. We hold a 1.59%
     working interest in each of the wells subject to a 30% reversionary
     interest to Ecopetrol at payout.

-    The Tambaqui #5 well commenced drilling, and production, in March 2005. We
     hold a 12.6% working interest in the well.


                                       14

Seismic surveying began on our Cara Cara concession in Colombia as part of our
planned delineation of additional drilling prospects on the concession.  Seismic
surveying was completed on our Dorotea and Cabiona concessions to establish
drilling prospect locations.

We, and our partners, plan to drill up to 5 additional wells on the Cara Cara
concession through the end of 2005.

We, and our partners, are permitting 30 drilling locations on the Dorotea and
Cabiona concessions.  We, and our partners, plan to add a second rig to begin
drilling as soon as permits are obtained and locations are built.

Leasehold Activities

During 2004, we invested approximately $612,000 for the acquisition of oil and
gas properties, consisting of (1) acquisition of a 3% interest in the North
Freshwater Bayou Field in Louisiana, (2) acquisition of a 100% interest in the
South Sibley Prospect, (3) acquisition of a 50% interest in the Southern Star
Wharton Prospect, and (4) acquisition, by Hupecol, of two additional concessions
in Colombia covering approximately 180,000 acres.

In September 2004, we sold our 50% interest in a 280 acre leasehold in Wharton
County, Texas to an independent exploration and production company.  We received
funds in excess of our acquisition cost on the Wharton County lease.  The excess
proceeds from the sale, totaling approximately $21,650, were applied to reduce
the cost of oil and gas properties.  Pursuant to the terms of the sale, the
buyer agreed to drill two wells on the prospect with the Company retaining a
carried working interest of 9.5% to the casing point and a net revenue interest
of 7.125%.  The two wells, the Hutchins Peareson #1 and the Hutchins Peareson #2
were drilled as dry holes.

In December 2004, we sold our interest in a 1,428 acre leasehold in Northern
Louisiana and joined the purchaser of that interest in forming a 7,680 acre area
of mutual interest.  Pursuant to that agreement, we received a 7.5% working
interest in the first well drilled on the acreage, a 7.5% working interest back
in after payout in the second and third wells and will have an option to
participate for its 7.5% working interest in all subsequent wells.  We also
retained overriding royalty interests ranging from 1.35% to 2.5% on leases
covering 3,200 acres.

Other Developments

In August 2004, we joined a Libya Study Group consisting of twelve oil companies
for the purpose of developing drilling prospects and applying for concessions to
exploit drilling opportunities in Libya.  The study group plans to have
completed the process of defining prospects followed by a formal request for
drilling concessions.

In September 2004, we approved the payment of a salary of $15,000 per month,
commencing in October 2004, to John Terwilliger, our President and Chief
Executive Officer.  Mr. Terwilliger had previously served without compensation.

In August 2005, three new directors were appointed our board approved the
adoption of a stock option plan and the payment of fees and grant of options to
non-employee directors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following describes the critical accounting policies used in reporting our
financial condition and results of operations.  In some cases, accounting
standards allow more than one alternative accounting method for reporting, such
is the case with accounting for oil and gas activities described below.  In
those cases, our reported results of operations would be different should we
employ an alternative accounting method.

Full Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Activities.  The Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") prescribes in Regulation S-X the financial
accounting and reporting standards for companies engaged in oil and gas
producing activities.  Two methods are prescribed: the successful efforts method
and the full cost method.  We follow the full cost method of accounting for oil
and gas property acquisition, exploration and development activities.  Under
this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred in connection with
the exploration for and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized.
Capitalized costs include lease acquisition, geological and geophysical work,
delay rentals, costs of drilling, completing and equipping successful and
unsuccessful oil and gas wells and related internal costs that can be directly
identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities, but does
not include any cost related to production, general corporate overhead or
similar activities.  Gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of oil and
gas properties is not recognized unless significant amounts of oil and gas
reserves are involved.  No corporate overhead had been capitalized as of
December 31, 2004 or June 30, 2005.  The capitalized costs of oil and gas
properties, plus estimated future development costs relating to proved reserves
are amortized on a units-of-production method over the estimated productive life
of the reserves. Unevaluated oil and gas properties are excluded from this
calculation.  The capitalized oil and gas property costs, less accumulated
amortization, are limited to an amount (the ceiling limitation) equal to the sum
of: (a) the present value of estimated future net revenues from the projected
production of proved oil and gas reserves, calculated at prices in effect as of
the balance sheet date (with consideration of price changes only to the extent
provided by contractual arrangements) and a discount factor of 10%; (b) the cost
of unproved and unevaluated properties excluded from the costs being amortized;
(c) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties included in
the costs being amortized; and (d) related income tax effects.  Excess costs are
charged to proved properties impairment expense.

Unevaluated Oil and Gas Properties.  Unevaluated oil and gas properties consist
principally of our cost of acquiring and evaluating undeveloped leases, net of
an allowance for impairment and transfers to depletable oil and gas properties.
When leases are developed, expire or are abandoned, the related costs are
transferred from unevaluated oil and gas properties to depletable oil and gas
properties. Additionally, we review the carrying costs of unevaluated oil and
gas properties for the purpose of determining probable future lease expirations
and abandonments, and prospective discounted future economic benefit
attributable to the leases.  We record an allowance for impairment based on a
review of present value of future cash flows.  Any resulting charge is made to
operations and reflected as a reduction of the carrying value of the recorded
asset.  Unevaluated oil and gas properties not subject to amortization include
the following at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2005:

The carrying value of unevaluated oil and gas prospects include $12,519 and
$439,333 expended for properties in South America at December 31, 2004 and June
30, 2005, respectively.  We are maintaining our interest in these properties and
development has or is anticipated to commence within the next twelve months.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004

Oil and Gas Revenues.  Total oil and gas revenues increased 260% to $1,091,940
in the six months ended June 30, 2005 when compared to the six months ended June
30, 2004. The increase in revenue is due to (1) increased production resulting
from the development of the Columbian fields and the new domestic wells that
have come on line during the second half of 2004 and the first half of 2005, and
(2) increases in oil prices.  The Company had interests in 13 producing wells in
Colombia and 7 producing wells in the U.S. during the 2005 period as compared to
4 producing wells in Columbia and 5 producing wells in the U.S. during the 2004
period.  Average prices from sales were $38.22 per barrel of oil and $5.93 per
mcf of gas during the 2005 period as compared to $28.43 per barrel of oil and
$5.10 per mcf of gas during the 2004 period.  Following is a summary comparison,
by region, of oil and gas sales for the periods.



                                       Columbia     U.S.     Total

Lease Operating Expenses.  Lease operating and severance tax expenses, excluding
joint venture expenses relating to our Columbian operations discussed below,
increased 294% to $470,975 in the 2005 period from $119,497 in the 2004 period.
The increase in lease operating expenses was attributable to the increase in the
number of wells operated during the 2005 period (20 wells as compared to 10
wells).  Following is a summary comparison of lease operating expenses for the
periods.



                                 Columbia    U.S.     Total
                                 ---------  -------  --------

          2004 Period               98,084   21,413   119,497


Joint Venture Expenses.  The Company's allocable share of joint venture expenses
attributable to the Colombian Joint Venture totaled $27,424 during the 2005
period and $6,048 during the 2004 period.  The increase in joint venture
expenses was attributable to an increase in operational activities of the joint
venture in acquiring new concessions.

Depreciation and Depletion Expense.  Depreciation and depletion expense was
$170,358 and $57,493 for the periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The increase is due to increases in domestic and Colombian production.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense was $64,624 in the 2005 period and $31,600
in the 2004 period. The increase in interest expense was attributable to the
issuance, in May 2005, of $2,125,000 of Subordinated Convertible Notes.


                                       17

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expense
increased by 174% to $349,249 during the 2005 period from $127,280 in the 2004
period.  The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily
attributable to the payment of salary (up $97,184 from $0) to the Company's
principal officer beginning in the fourth quarter of 2004 and increases in
professional fees (up $136,594, or 243%) relating primarily to legal fees
associated with the ongoing Moose Oil litigation.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

Oil and Gas Revenues.  Total oil and gas revenues increased $961,463, or 435%,
to $1,182,063 in fiscal 2004 when compared to fiscal 2003.  The increase in
revenue is due to (1) increased production resulting from the development of the
South American fields and the new domestic wells that have come on line during
2003 and 2004 and (2) increases in oil prices.  We had interests in 8 producing
wells in South America and 8 producing wells in North America during 2004 as
compared to 2 producing wells in South America and 3 producing wells in North
America during 2003.  Average prices from sales were $33.85 per barrel of oil
and $5.43 per mcf of gas during 2004 as compared to $30.17 per barrel of oil and
$5.11 per mcf of gas during 2003.  Following is a summary comparison, by region,
of oil and gas sales for the periods.

Lease Operating Expenses.  Lease operating expenses, excluding joint venture
expenses relating to our South American operations discussed below, increased
182% to $413,723 in 2004 from $146,914 in 2003.  The increase in lease operating
expenses was attributable to the increase in the number of wells operated during
2004.  Following is a summary comparison of lease operating expenses for the
years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.



                                                      North

          Year ended 2003                   109,348    37,566   146,914


Joint Venture Expenses.  Joint venture expenses totaled $41,944 in 2004 compared
to $36,940 in 2003.  The joint venture expenses represent our allocable share of
the indirect field operating and region administrative expenses billed by the
operator of the South American CaraCara and Tambaqui concessions.  The increase
in joint venture expenses was attributable to increased exploration and
production in South America.

Depreciation and Depletion Expense.  Depreciation and depletion expense
increased by 275% to $211,759 in 2004 when compared to $56,434 in 2003.  The
increase in depreciation and depletion expense was primarily attributable to the
increased production from new wells coming on line during 2004.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased 49% to $72,000 in 2004 compared to
$142,349 in 2003.  The interest expense decrease was attributable to reduced
debt relating to the conversion of certain debt to equity in 2003 and a
reduction in the interest rate.


                                       18

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expense
increased by 79% to $327,354 in 2004 from the $182,293 in 2003. The increase in
G&A expense was principally attributable to (1) a 137% increase in professional
fees arising in connection with the Moose Oil litigation commenced during 2004
and (2) the commencement of salary to our President and CEO during the fourth
quarter of 2004, totaling $15,000 per month.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity and Capital Resources.  At June 30, 2005 we had a cash balance of
$1,929,671 and working capital of $2,115,659 compared to a cash balance of
$721,613 and working capital of $771,392 at December 31, 2004. The increase in
cash and working capital during the period was primarily attributable to the
sale, during 2005, of $2,125,000 of Subordinated Convertible Notes partially
offset by investing activities relating to oil and gas properties.

Operating cash flows for the 2005 period totaled $30,997 as compared to cash
used in operations during the 2004 period of $54,826.  The improvement in
operating cash flow was primarily attributable to improved profitability and
increases in depreciation and depletion, partially offset by changes in
operating assets and liabilities.

Investing activities used $947,939 during the 2005 period as compared to
$441,778 used during the 2004 period.  The increase in funds used in investing
activities during the current period was primarily attributable to the payment
of the Company's portion of seismic survey costs on Colombian prospects totaling
$447,605.

Financing activities provided $2,125,000 during the 2005 period attributable to
the sale of Subordinated Convertible Notes and $91,193 during the 2004 period
attributable to the issue of common stock.

Notes Payable.  At June 30, 2005, our long-term debt was $3,169,456 as compared
to $1,000,000 at December 31, 2004.  The increase in long-term debt was
attributable to the issuance during the period of $2,125,000 of Subordinated
Convertible Notes and recording a reserve for plugging costs of $44,456.

Notes payable at June 30, 2005 included loans from our principal shareholder, in
the amount of $1,000,000, bearing interest at 7.2% and maturing January 1, 2007.

Notes payable also included $2,125,000 in principal amount of Convertible Notes.
The Convertible Notes bear interest at 8%, provide for semi-annual interest
payments and mature May 1, 2010. The Convertible Notes are convertible, at the
option of the holders, into common stock of the Company at a price of $1.00 per
share (the "Conversion Price"), subject to standard anti-dilution provisions
relating to splits, reverse splits and other transactions, including issuances
of common stock at prices below the Conversion Price. The Convertible Notes are
subject to automatic conversion in the event the Company conducts an
underwritten public offering of its common stock from which the Company receives
at least $5 million and the public offering price is at least 150% of the then
applicable Conversion Price. The Company has the right to cause the Convertible
Notes to be converted into common stock after May 1, 2006 if the price of the
Company's common stock exceeds 200% of the then applicable Conversion Price on
the date of conversion and for at least 20 trading days over the preceding 30
trading days. The Company has the right to repurchase the Convertible Notes
after May 1, 2007 at 103% of the face amount during 2007, 102% of the face
amount during 2008, 101% of the face amount during 2009 and 100% of the face
amount thereafter. The Convertible Notes are unsecured general obligations of
the Company and are subordinated to all other indebtedness of the Company unless
the other indebtedness is expressly made subordinate to the Convertible Notes.


                                       19

Capital and Exploration Expenditures and Commitments.  Our principal capital and
exploration expenditures relate to our ongoing efforts to acquire, drill and
complete prospects.  Historically, we funded our capital and exploration
expenditures from funds borrowed from John F. Terwilliger, our principal
shareholder and officer.  With the receipt of additional equity financing in
2003, 2004 and the May 2005 sale of convertible notes, and the increase in our
revenues, profitability and operating cash flows, we expect that future capital
and exploration expenditures will be funded principally through funds on hand
and funds generated from operations.

During the first half of 2005, we invested approximately $947,939 for the
acquisition and development of oil and gas properties, consisting of (1) seismic
surveying in Colombia ($447,605), (2) drilling the well on the Crowley Prospect,
and (3) drilling 6 wells in Colombia.

At June 30, 2005, our only material contractual obligations requiring
determinable future payments on our part were notes payable to our principal
shareholder and holders of subordinated convertible notes and our lease relating
to our executive offices.

The following table details our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2005:



                                    Payments due by period

                 ==========  =======  ============  ============  ===========


In addition to the contractual obligations requiring that we make fixed
payments, in conjunction with our efforts to secure oil and gas prospects,
financing and services, we have, from time to time, granted overriding royalty
interests (ORRI) in various properties, and may grant ORRIs in the future,
pursuant to which we will be obligated to pay a portion of our interest in
revenues from various prospects to third parties.

At June 30, 2005, our acquisition and drilling budget for the balance of 2005
totaled approximately $427,500, consisting of (1) $120,000 for drilling of 5
wells in South America on the Cara Cara concession, (2) $187,500 to drill one
additional concession acquired in South America in 2004 and (3) $120,000 to
drill an additional well on the Crowley Prospect.  Our acquisition and drilling
budget has historically been subject to substantial fluctuation over the course
of a year based upon successes and failures in drilling and completion of
prospects and the identification of additional prospects during the course of a
year.

Management anticipates that our current financial resources combined with our
increases in revenues over the past year will meet our anticipated objectives
and business operations, including our planned property acquisitions and
drilling activities, for at least the next 12 months without the need for
additional capital.  Management continues to evaluate producing property
acquisitions as well as a number of drilling prospects.  It is possible,
although not anticipated, that the Company may require and seek additional
financing if additional drilling prospects are pursued beyond those presently
under consideration.

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees of third party
obligations at June 30, 2005.

INFLATION

We believe that inflation has not had a significant impact on our operations
since inception.


                                       20

                                    BUSINESS

GENERAL

Houston American Energy Corp. is an oil and gas exploration and production
company.  Our oil and gas exploration and production activities are focused on
properties in the U.S. onshore Gulf Coast Region, principally Texas, and
development of four concessions in the South American country of Colombia.  We
seek to utilize the contacts and experience of our sole executive officer, John
F. Terwilliger, to identify favorable drilling opportunities, to use advanced
seismic techniques to define prospects and to form partnerships and joint
ventures to spread the cost and risks to us of drilling.

EXPLORATION PROJECTS

Our exploration projects are focused on existing property interests, and future
acquisition of additional property interests, in the onshore Texas Gulf Coast
region, Colombia and Louisiana.

Each of our exploration projects differs in scope and character and consists of
one or more types of assets, such as 3-D seismic data, leasehold positions,
lease options, working interests in leases, partnership or limited liability
company interests or other mineral rights.  Our percentage interest in each
exploration project ("Project Interest") represents the portion of the interest
in the exploration project we share with other project partners.  Because each
exploration project consists of a bundle of assets that may or may not include a
working interest in the project, our Project Interest simply represents our
proportional ownership in the bundle of assets that constitute the exploration
project.  Therefore, our Project Interest in an exploration project should not
be confused with the working interest that we will own when a given well is
drilled.  Each exploration project represents a negotiated transaction between
the project partners.  Our working interest may be higher or lower than our
Project Interest.

Our principal exploration projects as of December 31, 2004 consisted on the
following:

LAVACA COUNTY, TEXAS.  In Lavaca County, Texas, we hold two separate interests
consisting of a 5% non-participating royalty interest in a 150 acre tract known
as the Mavis Wharton Lease and a 38% working interest in a 65.645 acre tract
known as the West Hardys Creek Prospect.

The Mavis Wharton #3 well was drilled on the Mavis Wharton Lease and, following
completion, experienced production problems.  The well was reworked and
determined to be non-commercial and abandoned.  Our royalty interest in the
Mavis Wharton Lease does not bear any costs of well operations.

The Goyen #1 well was drilled on the West Hardys Creek Prospect in the third
quarter of 2003.  The Goyen #1 well tested the Frio and Miocene Sands to a depth
of 3,000 feet.  The Goyen #1 well was successfully completed in September 2003
and commenced production as a gas well with an initial production rate of 350MCF
per day.  We presently have no plans with respect to drilling additional wells
on the West Hardys Creek Prospect.

MATAGORDA COUNTY, TEXAS.  In Matagorda County, Texas, we hold two separate
interests consisting of a 3.5% working interest with a 2.415% net revenue
interest in a 779 acre tract known as the S.W. Pheasant Prospect and an option
to participate, based on a 3.5% working interest with a 2.415% net revenue
interest, in a 672 acre tract known as the Turtle Creek Prospect.

A well was successfully completed on the S.W. Pheasant Prospect in July 2003
with initial production rates from the Frio K Sand of 1400 MCF and 35 barrels of
oil per day.  We presently have no plans with respect to drilling additional
wells in Matagorda County.


                                       21

SAN PATRICIO COUNTY, TEXAS.  In San Patricio County, Texas, we hold a 5% working
interest in a 380 acre leasehold known as the St. Paul Prospect.  The Garza #1
well was drilled in the first quarter of 2004 and successfully completed as a
gas well.  We presently have no plans with respect to drilling additional wells
on the St. Paul Prospect.

ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST PARISH, LOUISIANA.  In St. John the Baptist Parish,
Louisiana, we hold a 2% working interest with a 1.44% net revenue interest in a
726 acre leasehold known as the Bougere Estate and the Bougere Estate #1 well.
The Bougere Estate #1 well was completed in June 2003 with initial production of
200 barrels of oil and 170 MCF of gas per day.  Commercial production of the
well commenced in December 2003 following installation of a gas sales pipeline.
We presently have no additional plans with respect to drilling additional wells
on the Bougere Estate.

VERMILLION PARISH, LOUISIANA.  In Vermillion Parish, Louisiana, we hold a 3%
working interest in the LaFurs F-16 well.  The LaFurs F-16 well was drilled in
the second quarter of 2004 and was completed as a gas well with commercial sales
of gas beginning in the third quarter of 2004.  We have no additional drilling
rights or plans with respect to the Vermillion Parish prospect.

ACADIA PARISH, LOUISIANA.  In Acadia Parish, Louisiana, we hold a 3% working
interest and a 2.25% net revenue interest until payout in a 620 acre leasehold
known as the Crowley Prospect.  The Hoffpauer #1 (formerly the Baronet #1) was
drilled in the third quarter of 2004.  Commercial production of the well
commenced in December 2004 with initial production rates of 1,525 MCF of gas and
15.5 barrels of condensate per day.  The Baronet #2 well was drilled in the
first quarter of 2005 and began production in June 2005.

TERREBONNE PARISH, LOUISIANA.  In Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, we hold a 1.25%
carried working interest to the casing point in a 194 acre leasehold known as
the Donner Field.

PLAQUEMINES PARISH, LOUISIANA.  In Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, we hold a 1.8%
working interest after casing point, and a 1.35% net revenue interest in a 300
acre leasehold known as the Bakers Bay Prospect.  The SL18077 #1 well was
drilled in the fourth quarter of 2004.  The well was completed as a gas and oil
well in December 2005 and was awaiting a pipeline hookup at December 31, 2004
with sales commencing in July 2005.  We presently have no plans with respect to
drilling additional wells on the Bakers Bay Prospect.

NORTH LOUISIANA.  In December 2004, we sold our interest in a 1,428 acre
leasehold in Northern Louisiana and joined the purchaser of that interest in
forming a 7,680 acre area of mutual interest.  Pursuant to that agreement, we
received a 7.5% working interest in the first well drilled on the acreage, a
7.5% working interest back in after payout in the second and third wells and
will have an option to participate for its 7.5% working interest in all
subsequent wells.  We also retained overriding royalty interests ranging from
1.35% to 2.5% on leases covering 3,200 acres.

LLANOS BASIN, COLOMBIA.  In the Llanos Basin, Colombia, we hold interests in (1)
a 232,050 acre tract known as the Cara Cara concession, (2) the Tambaqui
Association Contract covering 88,000 acres in the State of Casanare, Colombia,
and (3) two concessions, the Dorotea Contract and the Cabiona Contract, totaling
over 185,000 acres.

Our interest in the Cara Cara concession and the two additional concessions is
held through an interest in Hupecol, LLC.  The additional concessions were
acquired by Hupecol in the fourth quarter of 2004.  We hold a 12.5% working
interest in each of the prospects of Hupecol.  In conjunction with our interest
in Hupecol, we also acquired, and hold, a 12.6% working interest, with an 11.31%
net revenue interest, in the Tambaqui Association Contract.


                                       22

The first well drilled in the Cara Cara concession, the Jaguar #1 well, was
completed in April 2003 with initial production of 892 barrels of oil per day.
In conjunction with the efforts to develop the Cara Cara concession, Hupecol
acquired 50 square miles of 3D seismic grid surrounding the Jaguar #1 well and
two other prospect areas.  That data is being utilized to identify additional
drill site opportunities to develop a field around the Jaguar #1 well and in
other prospect areas within the grid.

Our working interest in the Cara Cara concession and the Tambaqui Association
Contract are subject to an escalating royalty of 8% on the first 5,000 barrels
of oil per day to 20% at 125,000 barrels of oil per day.  Our interest in the
Tambaqui Association Contract is subject to reversionary interests of Ecopetrol,
the state owned Colombian oil company, that could cause 50% of the working
interest to revert to Ecopetrol after we have recouped four times our initial
investment.  Our working interest in the additional concessions is subject to an
escalating royalty ranging from 5% to 20% depending upon production volumes and
pricing and an additional 6% to 10% per concession when 5,000,000 barrels of oil
have been produced on that concession.

In December 2003, we exercised our right to participate in the acquisition,
through Hupecol, of over 3,000 kilometers of seismic data in Colombia covering
in excess of 20 million acres.  The seismic data is being utilized to map
prospects in key areas with a view to delineating multiple drilling
opportunities.  We will hold a 12.5% interest in all prospects developed by
Hupecol arising from the acquired seismic data, including the two concessions
acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004.  Hupecol acquired, during the first half
of 2005, approximately 75 square miles of 3D seismic data covering the two
additional concessions and 46 square miles of new 3D seismic on the Cara Cara
concession.

During 2004, Hupecol drilled nine wells on the Cara Cara concession in Colombia
to offset, and delineate, the Jaguar #1 well, with production commencing on the
Jaguar #2 in March 2004, the Bengala #2 in April 2004, the Jaguar #6 in July
2004, the Jaguar #12 in September 2004, the Jaguar #3A in October 2004, and the
Jaguar #15 in December 2004.  The Cara Cara #1, the Cara Cara #7 and the Cara
Cara #7 Side Track were dry holes.  Through August 10, 2005, Hupecol drilled
five additional wells on the Cara Cara concession, the Bengala #4, #5, #6 and #7
and the Jaguar #5.  We hold a 1.59% working interest in each of the wells.
Through Hupecol, we presently plan to drill an additional five wells on the Cara
Cara concession through the end of 2005.

Included in our interest in the Tambaqui Association Contract was an interest in
a producing well, the Tambaqui #1, and in two exploration wells.  The Tambaqui
#1 is no longer producing due to uneconomic production rates.  The first
exploration well drilled as an offset to the Tambaqui #1, the Tambaqui #1Am, was
dry.  The Tambaqui #2 well was successfully drilled and began production in June
2004.  The Tambaqui was successfully drilled and began production in March 2005.

Through Hupecol, seismic surveying has been completed and permitting of 30
drilling locations is ongoing on the Dorotea Contract and Cabiona Contract.  We
plan to commence drilling on the Dorotea Contract and the Cabiona Contract upon
completion of permitting and securing a rig.

(1)  Project Gross Acres refers to the number of acres within a project. Project
     Net Acres refers to leaseable acreage by tract. Company Net Acres are
     either leased or under option in which we own an undivided interest.
     Company Net Acres were determined by multiplying the Project Net Acres
     leased or under option times our working interest therein.
(2)  The project interest is the working interest in the concession and not
     necessarily the working interest in the well.

DRILLING ACTIVITIES

From April 2001 (inception of the Company) through December 31, 2004, we drilled
18 exploratory and 7 developmental wells, of which 18 were completed and 7 were
dry holes.  In 2003, 3 exploratory and 1 developmental wells were drilled of
which 3 were completed and 1 was a dry hole.  In 2004, 9 exploratory and 7
developmental wells were drilled of which 11 were completed and 5 were dry
holes.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the actual drilling
results for each of the years 2003 and 2004 as to wells drilled in each such

NATURAL GAS AND OIL RESERVES

The following table summarizes the estimates of our historical net proved

(1)  At December 31, 2004, net proved reserves, by region, consisted of 295,700
     barrels of oil in South America and 11,590 barrels of oil in North America;
     all natural gas reserves were in North America.


                                       26

(2)  The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows represents the
     present value of future net revenues after income tax discounted at 10% per
     annum and has been calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 69, "Disclosures
     About Oil and Gas Producing Activities" (see Note 7 - Supplemental
     Information on Oil and Gas Exploration, Development and Production
     Activities (Unaudited)) and, in accordance with current SEC guidelines, and
     does not include estimated future cash inflows from hedging. The
     standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows attributable to
     our reserves was prepared using prices in effect at the end of the
     respective periods presented, discounted at 10% per annum on a pre-tax
     basis.

In accordance with applicable requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, we estimate our proved reserves and future net cash flows using
sales prices and costs estimated to be in effect as of the date we make the
reserve estimates.  We hold the estimates constant throughout the life of the
properties, except to the extent a contract specifically provides for
escalation.  Gas prices, which have fluctuated widely in recent years, affect
estimated quantities of proved reserves and future net cash flows.  Any
estimates of natural gas and oil reserves and their values are inherently
uncertain, including many factors beyond our control.  The reserve data
contained in this prospectus represent only estimates.  Reservoir engineering is
a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and
oil that cannot be measured in an exact manner.  The accuracy of reserve
estimates is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and
geological interpretation and judgment.  As a result, estimates of different
engineers, including those we use, may vary.  In addition, estimates of reserves
may be revised based upon actual production, results of future development and
exploration activities, prevailing natural gas and oil prices, operating costs
and other factors, which revision may be material.  Accordingly, reserve
estimates may be different from the quantities of natural gas and oil that we
are ultimately able to recover and are highly dependent upon the accuracy of the
underlying assumptions.  Our estimated proved reserves have not been filed with
or included in reports to any federal agency.

TITLE TO PROPERTIES

Title to properties is subject to royalty, overriding royalty, carried working,
net profits, working and other similar interests and contractual arrangements
customary in the gas and oil industry, liens for current taxes not yet due and
other encumbrances.  As is customary in the industry in the case of undeveloped
properties, little investigation of record title is made at the time of
acquisition (other than preliminary review of local records).

Investigation, including a title opinion of local counsel, generally are made
before commencement of drilling operations.

MARKETING

At August 29, 2005, we had no contractual agreements to sell our gas and oil
production and all production was sold on spot markets.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS

Operational Hazards and Insurance. Our development, exploitation and exploration
activities may be unsuccessful for many reasons, including weather, cost
overruns, equipment shortages and mechanical difficulties.  Moreover, the
successful drilling of a natural gas and oil well does not ensure a profit on
investment.  A variety of factors, both geological and market related can cause
a well to become uneconomical or only marginally profitable.  Our business
involves a variety of operating risks which may adversely affect our
profitability, including:

     - fires;

     - explosions;

     - blow-outs and surface cratering;

     - uncontrollable flows of oil, natural gas, and formation water;

     - natural disasters, such as hurricanes and other adverse weather
conditions;

     - pipe, cement, or pipeline failures;

     - casing collapses;

     - embedded oil field drilling and service tools;

     - abnormally pressured formations; and

     - environmental hazards, such as natural gas leaks, oil spills, pipeline
ruptures and discharges of toxic gases.

In accordance with industry practice, our insurance protects us against some,
but not all, operational risks.  Further, we do not carry business interruption
insurance at levels that would provide enough cash for us to continue operating
without access to additional funds.  As pollution and environmental risks
generally are not fully insurable, our insurance may be inadequate to cover any
losses or exposure for such liability.


                                       28

Volatility of Oil and Gas Prices. As an independent oil and gas producer, our
revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent
upon the prevailing prices of, and demand for, natural gas, oil, and condensate.
Our realized profits affect the amount of cash flow available for capital
expenditures.  Our ability to maintain or increase our borrowing capacity and to
obtain additional capital on attractive terms is also substantially dependent
upon oil and gas prices.  Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to wide
fluctuation in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand
for, oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that
are beyond our control.  Among the factors that can cause the volatility of oil
and gas prices are:

     - worldwide or regional demand for energy, which is affected by economic
     conditions;

     - the domestic and foreign supply of natural gas and oil;

     - weather conditions;

     - domestic and foreign governmental regulations;

     - political conditions in natural gas and oil producing regions;

     - the ability of members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
     Countries to agree upon and maintain oil prices and production levels; and

     - the price and availability of other fuels.

OPERATIONS IN SOUTH AMERICA

As described above, we currently have interests in four concessions in the South
American country of Colombia and expect to be active in Colombia for the
foreseeable future.  The political climate in Colombia is unstable and could be
subject to radical change over a very short period of time.  In the event of a
significant negative change in political and economic stability in the vicinity
of our Colombian operations, we may be forced to abandon or suspend our efforts.
Either of such events could be harmful to our expected business prospects.

COMPETITION

Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense and we compete with major and
other independent oil and gas companies with respect to the acquisition of
producing properties and proved undeveloped acreage.  Our competitors actively
bid for desirable oil and gas properties, as well as for the equipment and labor
required to operate and develop the properties.  Many of those competitors,
however, have financial resources and exploration and development budgets that
are substantially greater than ours and may be able to absorb the burden of any
changes in federal, state and local laws and regulations more easily than we can
do so, which would adversely affect our competitive position.  These competitors
may be able to pay more for natural gas and oil properties and may be able to
define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties than we
can.  Our ability to acquire additional properties and develop new and existing
properties in the future will depend on our capability to conduct operations, to
evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in this
highly competitive environment.


                                       29

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

Our business and the oil and gas industry in general are subject to extensive
laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations.  As such, we
may be required to make large expenditures to comply with environmental and
other governmental regulations.  State and federal regulations, including those
enforced by the Texas Railroad Commission as the primary regulator of the oil
and gas industry in the State of Texas, are generally intended to prevent waste
of oil and gas, protect rights to produce oil and gas between owners in a common
reservoir and control contamination of the environment. Matters subject to
regulation in the State of Texas include:

     - location and density of wells;

     - the handling of drilling fluids and obtaining discharge permits for
drilling operations;

     - accounting for and payment of royalties on production from state, federal
and Indian lands;

     - bonds for ownership, development and production of natural gas and oil
properties;

     - transportation of natural gas and oil by pipelines;

     - operation of wells and reports concerning operations; and

     - taxation.

Under these laws and regulations, we could be liable for personal injuries,
property damage, oil spills, discharge of hazardous materials, remediation and
clean-up costs and other environmental damages.  Failure to comply with these
laws and regulations also may result in the suspension or termination of our
operations and subject us to administrative, civil and criminal penalties.
Moreover, these laws and regulations could change in ways that substantially
increase our operating costs.

Natural gas operations are subject to various types of regulation at the
federal, state and local levels.  Prior to commencing drilling activities for a
well, we are required to procure permits and/or approvals for the various stages
of the drilling process from the applicable state and local agencies. Permits
and approvals include those for the drilling of wells, and regulations including
maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells and the
location of wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the surface use and
restoration of properties on which wells are drilled, the plugging and
abandoning of wells, and the disposal of fluids used in connection with
operations.

Our operations are also subject to various conservation laws and regulations.
These include the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units and the
density of wells, which may be drilled and the unitization or pooling of natural
gas properties.  In this regard, some states allow the forced pooling or
integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states rely
primarily or exclusively on voluntary pooling of lands and leases.  In areas
where pooling is voluntary, it may be more difficult to form units, and
therefore, more difficult to develop a project if the operator owns less than
100 percent of the leasehold.


                                       30

Regulation of Sales and Transportation of Natural Gas.  Historically, the
transportation and resale of natural gas in interstate commerce have been
regulated by the Natural Gas Act of 1938, the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978,
and the regulations promulgated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Maximum selling prices of some categories of natural gas sold in "first sales,"
whether sold in interstate or intrastate commerce, were regulated under the
NGPA.  The Natural Gas Well Head Decontrol Act removed, as of January 1, 1993,
all remaining federal price controls from natural gas sold in "first sales" on
or after that date. FERC's jurisdiction over natural gas transportation was
unaffected by the Decontrol Act.  While sales by producers of natural gas and
all sales of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids can currently be made
at market prices, Congress could reenact price controls in the future.

Sales of natural gas are affected by the availability, terms and cost of
transportation.  The price and terms for access to pipeline transportation are
subject to extensive regulation.  In recent years, FERC has undertaken various
initiatives to increase competition within the natural gas industry.  As a
result of initiatives like FERC Order No. 636, issued in April 1992, the
interstate natural gas transportation and marketing system has been
substantially restructured to remove various barriers and practices that
historically limited non-pipeline natural gas sellers, including producers, from
effectively competing with interstate pipelines for sales to local distribution
companies and large industrial and commercial customers.  The most significant
provisions of Order No. 636 require that interstate pipelines provide
transportation separate or "unbundled" from their sales service, and require
that pipelines make available firm and interruptible transportation service on
an open access basis that is equal for all natural gas suppliers.

In many instances, the result of Order No. 636 and related initiatives has been
to substantially reduce or eliminate the interstate pipelines' traditional role
as wholesalers of natural gas in favor of providing only storage and
transportation services.  Another effect of regulatory restructuring is the
greater transportation access available on interstate pipelines.  In some cases,
producers and marketers have benefited from this availability.  However,
competition among suppliers has greatly increased and traditional long-term
producer pipeline contracts are rare.  Furthermore, gathering facilities of
interstate pipelines are no longer regulated by FERC, thus allowing gatherers to
charge higher gathering rates.

Environmental Regulations.  Our operations are subject to additional laws and
regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or
otherwise relating to environmental protection.  Public interest in the
protection of the environment has increased dramatically in recent years.  It
appears that the trend of more expansive and stricter environmental legislation
and regulations will continue.

We generate wastes that may be subject to the Federal Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act ("RCRA") and comparable state statutes, which have limited the
approved methods of disposal for some hazardous wastes. Additional wastes may be
designated as "hazardous wastes" in the future, and therefore become subject to
more rigorous and costly operating and disposal requirements.  Although
management believes that we utilize good operating and waste disposal practices,
prior owners and operators of our properties may not have done so, and
hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been disposed of or released on or under
the properties owned or leased by us or on or under locations where wastes have
been taken for disposal.  These properties and the wastes disposed on the
properties may be subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), RCRA and analogous state laws, which
require the removal and remediation of previously disposed wastes, including
waste disposed of or released by prior owners or operators.


                                       31

CERCLA and similar state laws impose liability, without regard to fault or the
legality of the original conduct, on some classes of persons that are considered
to have contributed to the release of a "hazardous substance" into the
environment. These persons include the owner or operator of the disposal site or
sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or arranged for
the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site. Persons who are or
were responsible for release of hazardous substances under CERCLA may be subject
to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous
substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to
natural resources, and it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other
third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly
caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment.

EMPLOYEES

As of August 29, 2005, we had one full-time employee and no part time employees.
The employee is not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and we do not
anticipate that any of our future employees will be covered by such agreement.
If our operations continue to grow as expected, we anticipate hiring as many as
three additional employees by the end of 2005.

PROPERTIES

We currently lease approximately 2,000 square feet of office space in Houston,
Texas as our executive offices.  Management anticipates that our space will be
sufficient for the foreseeable future.  The monthly rental under the lease,
which expires on November 30, 2006, is $3,302.59.

A description of our interests in oil and gas properties is included above.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, we were named as defendant in a suit
styled Alan Gerger, Trustee for the Substantially Consolidated Bankruptcy Estate
       -------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Moose Oil and Gas Company and Moose Operating Company v. John Terwilliger,
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marlin Data Research, Inc. and Houston American Energy Corp., filed in the
------------------------------------------------------------
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas.  The
plaintiff alleges that expenses relating to the formation and operation of
Houston American were paid by Moose Oil and Gas or Moose Operating Company, that
interests in certain oil and gas properties were transferred to Houston American
from Moose Oil and Gas or Moose Operating Company and that the alleged payments
and transfers constituted fraudulent transfers and voidable preferences.  The
plaintiff seeks to recover all properties alleged to have been wrongfully
transferred as well as costs of suit and other relief.  We believe that the
action is without merit and intend to vigorously contest the same.

BOARD COMMITTEES

We do not presently maintain an audit committee or any other committee of our
board of directors.  We are presently evaluating the appointment of additional
independent directors and the establishment of committees.  Because we do not
presently maintain an audit committee, we have no audit committee financial

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

In July 2001, we borrowed approximately $664,000 from John F. Terwilliger, our
sole executive officer. We utilized a portion of the funds borrowed from Mr.
Terwilliger to pay the principal and accrued interest on the $216,981 promissory
note that was payable to Moose Oil & Gas Company upon the purchase of our oil
and gas properties, and to repay Moose Operating for the operating expenses and
drilling and completing costs it had advanced on our behalf pursuant to the
Operating Agreement.

In December 2003, Mr. Terwilliger converted $441,516.29 of loans into 1,103,791
shares of common stock of Houston American and modified the repayment terms with
respect to the balance of the loans to Houston American, totaling $1 million, to
reduce the interest rate on the loans to 7.2% and provide for a fixed maturity
date of January 1, 2007.  Also, in December 2003, Orrie L. Tawes, a principal
shareholder of the Company, converted the entire principal and accrued interest
on his loans to Houston American, in the amount of $186,016.83, into 465,042
shares of common stock.  As of December 31, 2004, we owed $1,004,400 to Mr.
Terwilliger, including accrued interest.

In conjunction with the Company's efforts to secure oil and gas prospects,
financing and services, it has, from time to time, granted overriding royalty
interests in the Company's various mineral properties to Orrie L. Tawes, a
significant shareholder.  During 2004, approximately $14,500 was paid to Mr.
Tawes from these royalty interests.

In May 2005, Northeast Securities, Inc. acted as placement agent in connection
with Houston American Energy's offer and sale of $2,125,000 of Subordinated
Convertible Notes for which Northeast Securities received commissions totaling
$127,500 and a warrant to purchase 191,250 shares of common stock at $1.00 per
share.  Mr. Tawes is Executive Vice President, head of Investment Banking and a
Director of Northeast Securities.

                              SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The selling securityholders are holders of $2,125,000 in principal amount of
Notes and the holders of warrants to purchase common stock.  The Notes were
issued in May 2005 pursuant to a private placement to accredited investors.  The
warrants were issued to the placement agent in the May 2005 private placement.
Pursuant to the terms of the sale of the Notes, we entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with each of the selling securityholders wherein we agreed to
register for resale the Notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the Notes and exercise of the warrants.

The following table sets forth information with respect to the selling
securityholders and the respective principal amounts of the Notes and common
stock beneficially owned by each selling securityholder that may be offered
under this prospectus. The information is based on information that has been
provided to us by or on behalf of the selling securityholders. Unless otherwise
indicated herein, none of the selling securityholders currently listed in the
following table has, or within the past three years has had, any position,
office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or
affiliates. Because the selling securityholders may from time to time use this
prospectus to offer all or some portion of the Notes or the common stock offered
hereby, we cannot provide an estimate as to the amount or percentage of any such
type of security that will be held by any selling securityholder upon
termination of any particular offering or sale under this prospectus. In
addition, the selling securityholder identified below may have sold, transferred
or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of any such securities since the date
on which they provided us information regarding their holdings, in transactions
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

For the purposes of the following table, the number of our common shares
beneficially owned has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the
Exchange Act, and such information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial
ownership for any other purpose. Under Rule 13d-3, beneficial ownership includes
any shares as to which a selling securityholder has sole or shared voting power
or investment power and also any shares which that selling securityholder has
the right to acquire within 60 days of the date of this prospectus through the
exercise of any stock option, warrants or other rights.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling securityholders and their successors, including their transferees,
pledgees or donees or their respective successors, may sell the Notes and the
common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes directly to purchasers or
through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in
the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling
securityholders or the purchasers. These discounts, concessions or commissions
as to any particular underwriter, broker-dealer or agent may be in excess of
those customary in the types of transactions involved.

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these securities. If
the Notes or shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes
are to be sold by transferees, pledgees or donees or their respective successors
then we must amend the list of selling securityholders to include the
transferee, pledgee or donee or their respective successors as selling
securityholders by amending the registration statement, of which this prospectus
is a part, or supplementing this prospectus, as required by law.

The Notes and the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes may be
sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at
the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at varying
prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. These sales may
be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions:


                                       39

     -    on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the
          Notes or our common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
     -    in the over-the-counter market;
     -    otherwise than on these exchanges or services or in the
          over-the-counter market; or
     -    through the writing of options, whether the options are listed on an
          options exchange or otherwise.

In connection with the sale of the Notes and the common stock into which the
Notes are convertible or otherwise, the selling securityholders may enter into
hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short
sales of the Notes and the common stock into which the Notes are convertible in
the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling securityholders may
also sell the Notes and the common stock into which the Notes are convertible
short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan
or pledge them to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.

The selling securityholders or their successors in interest may from time to
time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Notes and the
common stock into which the Notes are convertible and, if the selling
securityholders default in the performance of their secured obligations, the
pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell these securities from time to
time under this prospectus.

The aggregate proceeds to the selling securityholders from the sale of the Notes
and the common stock into which the Notes are convertible offered by them will
be the purchase price of the Notes or common stock less discounts, concessions
or commissions, if any.  Each selling securityholder reserves the right to
accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or
in part, any proposed purchase of these securities to be made directly or
through agents.

Our outstanding common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the
symbol "HUSA.OB." The Notes are not currently traded on any market. We do not
intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange or automated dealer
quotation system and can give no assurance about the development of any trading
market for the Notes.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the
Notes and the common stock into which the Notes are convertible maybe sold in
these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in some states the Notes and the common stock into which the Notes are
convertible may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for
sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is
available and is complied with.

Selling securityholders that are also registered broker-dealers who act in
connection with the sale of Notes or shares of common stock under this
prospectus may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the
Securities Act and any commissions they receive and proceeds of any sale of
Notes or shares of common stock may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and
commissions under the Securities Act. Neither we nor any selling securityholder
can presently estimate the amount of this compensation. Selling securityholders
who are "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act will be subject
to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

The selling securityholders have acknowledged that they understand their
obligations to comply with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules
thereunder relating to stock manipulation, particularly Regulation M thereunder,
or any successor rules or regulations, and have agreed that neither they nor any
person acting on their behalf will engage in any transaction in violation of
these provisions.

In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale
pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule
144 or Rule 144A rather than pursuant to this prospectus.


                                       40

To the extent required, the specific Notes or common stock to be sold, the names
of the selling securityholders, the respective purchase prices and public
offering prices, the names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any
applicable discounts, concessions or commissions with respect to a particular
offer will be set forth in an amendment to the registration statement, of which
this prospectus is a part, or in a supplement to this prospectus, as required by
law.

We will use our commercially reasonable best efforts to keep the registration
statement, of which this prospectus is a part, effective for the period set
forth above under "Description of the Notes-Registration Rights." No sales may
be made pursuant to this prospectus after that period unless we amend the
registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, or supplement this
prospectus, as required by law, to indicate that we have agreed to extend the
period of effectiveness.

We have agreed, among other things, to bear all fees and expenses, other than
selling expenses, discounts, concessions and commissions and expenses of counsel
to the selling securityholders, in connection with the registration and sale of
the Notes and the shares of common stock under this prospectus.

                            DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

We issued the Notes as of May 4, 2005.  The Notes are not subject to an
indenture. The Notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of
the Notes are covered by a registration rights agreement.

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Notes
and the registration rights agreement. It does not purport to be complete. This
summary is subject to and is qualified by reference to all the provisions of the
Note, including the definitions of some terms used in the Note, and to all
provisions of the registration rights agreement. Wherever particular provisions
or defined terms or form of Note are referred to, these provisions or defined
terms are incorporated in this prospectus by reference. We urge you to read the
Note because it and not this description defines the rights of a holder of
Notes.

GENERAL

The Notes are general, unsecured obligations of Houston American Energy Corp.
and rank junior to our secured debt, to the extent of any assets securing such
indebtedness, and to our existing and future unsubordinated, unsecured debt. The
Notes are convertible into common stock as described under "-Conversion of
Notes."

The Notes are $2,125,000 in aggregate principal. The Notes mature on May 1, 2010
unless earlier converted or redeemed.

We are not subject to any financial covenants under the Notes. In addition, we
are not restricted under the Note from paying dividends, incurring debt or
issuing or repurchasing our securities.

You are not afforded protection under the Note in the event of a highly
leveraged transaction or a change in control of us except to the extent
described below under "Redemption at Option of the Holder."

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum. Interest is calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and will accrue from
May 4, 2005 or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for. We will pay interest on April 20 and October 20 of each year,
beginning October 20, 2005. Payment of cash interest on the Notes will include
interest accrued through the day before the applicable interest payment date or
redemption date, as the case may be.


                                       41

CONVERSION OF NOTES

You may convert any of the Notes held by you, in whole or in part, into common
stock prior to the close of business on the final maturity date of the Notes,
subject to prior redemption of the Notes.

The initial conversion price of the Notes is $1.00 per share, meaning that one
share of common stock will be issued for each $1.00 in principal amount of Notes
converted.

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon conversion of Notes.
Upon the conversion of the entire principal outstanding under a Note, in lieu of
issuing any fractional shares to the holder, Houston American Energy shall pay
to the holder the amount of outstanding principal that is not so converted.  On
partial conversion of Notes, Houston American Energy will issue to the holder
(i) the shares of common stock into which a portion of the Note is converted and
(ii) a new subordinated convertible promissory note having identical terms,
except that the principal amount thereof shall equal the difference between (A)
the principal amount of the Note immediately prior to such conversion minus (B)
the portion of such principal amount converted into common stock.

To convert Notes, the holder must surrender the Note, duly endorsed, at the
principal office of Houston American Energy.  At its expense, Houston American
Energy shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to the holder
at such principal office a certificate or certificates for the number of shares
of common stock, to which the holder shall be entitled upon such conversion
(bearing such legends as are required by applicable state and federal securities
laws in the opinion of counsel to Houston American Energy), together with any
other securities and property to which the holder is entitled upon such
conversion under the terms of the Note.  Upon delivery to the holder of shares
of common stock on conversion of Notes, the principal amount of Notes so
converted will be deemed satisfied and interest thereon will cease to accrue.

Automatic Conversion

The entire principal outstanding under the Notes (but not interest) will be
automatically converted into shares of common stock, at the then applicable
conversion price upon the closing of an underwritten public offering of common
stock in which (i) gross proceeds to Houston American Energy are equal to or
greater than $5 million and (ii) the price-per-share of the common stock sold in
the public offering is equal to or greater than 150% of the then applicable
conversion price.

Company Conversion

At any time after May 1, 2006 and prior to the maturity date, Houston American
Energy may, at its sole option and effective upon the date on which written
notice of conversion is sent to the holder, cause all or part of the principal
outstanding under the Notes (but not interest) to be converted into shares of
common stock, at the then current conversion price, provided that the market
price of the common stock on the conversion date, and for at least 20 of the 30
trading days ending on the conversion date, is in excess of 200% of the then
applicable conversion price.

Conversion Rate Adjustments

We will adjust the conversion rate if any of the following events occurs:

     -    we issue common stock as a dividend or distribution on our common
          stock;
     -    we issue to all holders of common stock some rights or warrants to
          purchase our common stock;
     -    we subdivide or combine our common stock;


                                       42

     -    we distribute to all holders of our common stock shares of our capital
          stock, evidences of indebtedness or assets, excluding cash;
     -    we undertake a reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise change
          our common stock into a different number, class or series of stock;
          and
     -    we sell shares of common stock, or issue securities convertible into
          or exercisable for shares of common stock, at prices less than the
          then applicable conversion price, excluding issuances of shares upon
          the conversion of securities outstanding at the time the Notes were
          issued and the issuance of shares or convertible securities to
          employees, officers, directors or consultants pursuant to effective
          S-8 registration statements.

Upon the occurrence of any event requiring an adjustment in the conversion rate,
the conversion price, and thus the conversion rate, will adjusted in such a
manner as to result in the receipt upon conversion of the type and amount of
securities as would have been received had conversion occurred immediately prior
to the event causing adjustment.

Except as described above in this section, we will not adjust the conversion
rate for any issuance of our common stock or convertible or exchangeable
securities or rights to purchase our common stock or convertible or exchangeable
securities.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION BY HOUSTON AMERICAN ENERGY

At any time after May 1, 2007 and prior to the maturity date, Houston American
Energy may, at its sole election, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon
giving at least two business days prior written notice of intent to redeem, by
paying to the holders an amount equal to (i) for redemptions occurring after May
1, 2007 and before January 1, 2008, 103% of the portion of the Notes being
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Notes being
redeemed, (ii) for redemptions occurring during calendar year 2008, 102% of the
portion of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the
portion of the Notes being redeemed, (iii) for redemptions occurring during
calendar year 2009, 101% of the portion of the Notes being redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Notes being redeemed, and (iv)
for redemptions occurring during calendar year 2010, 100% of the portion of the
Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the
Note being redeemed.  Except as set forth above, we have no right to prepay the
Notes, in whole or in part, prior to the maturity date.

REDEMPTION AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

Prior to the maturity date, the holders, at their sole election, may require
Houston American Energy to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, by providing
written notice of their election to cause redemption of Notes and the portion of
the Notes to be redeemed.  We will redeem the portion of the Notes for which a
redemption notice is provided by paying to the holder, within ten business days
following receipt of such redemption notice, an amount equal to 100% of the
portion of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the
portion of the Notes to be redeemed; provided, however, that a redemption notice
will only be effective and we will only be required to redeem Notes following
the occurrence of one or more of the following designated events:

     -    the acquisition by any person, including any syndicate or group deemed
          to be a "person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, of

          merger or other acquisition transaction or series of purchases,
          mergers or other acquisition transactions of shares of our capital

          generally in elections of directors, other than any acquisition by (1)
          us, (2) any of our subsidiaries, (3) any of our employee benefit
          plans, (4) John F. Terwilliger or (5) any holders of Notes; or


                                       43

     -    one or more persons file a Statement on Schedule TO or a Statement on
          Schedule 13D (or any successors thereto) stating that they have become
          and actually are beneficial owners of voting stock representing more
          than 80%, in the aggregate, of the voting power of all of our classes
          of voting stock entitled to vote generally in the election of the
          members of our board of directors; or
     -    the consolidation or merger of Houston American Energy with or into
          any other person, any merger of another person into Houston American
          Energy, or any conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition
          of all or substantially all of our properties and assets to another
          person, other than: (1) any transaction (a) that does not result in
          any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of
          outstanding shares of Houston American Energy's capital stock; and (b)
          pursuant to which holders of Houston American Energy's capital stock
          immediately prior to such transaction have the right to exercise,

          shares of Houston American Energy's capital stock entitled to vote
          generally in elections of directors of the continuing or surviving
          person immediately after giving effect to such issuance; or (2) any
          merger solely for the purpose of changing Houston American's
          jurisdiction of incorporation and resulting in a reclassification,
          conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of common stock solely
          into shares of common stock of the surviving entity.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

     -    we fail to pay (i) when due any principal or interest payment or (ii)
          any other payment required under the terms of the Notes on the date
          due and such payment shall not have been made within five (5) days of
          receipt of written notice of such failure to pay; or

          of any other agreement, term or condition contained in any such bond,

          cause, indebtedness in an aggregate amount of one million dollars
          ($1,000,000) or more to become due prior to its stated date of
          maturity; or

          or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the
          appointment of or taking possession of our property by any official in
          an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against us, or (vi)
          take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or

          American Energy or our debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other
          similar law now or hereafter in effect shall be commenced and an order

          Houston American Energy and the same shall remain undischarged for a
          period of thirty (30) days during which execution shall not be
          effectively stayed, or any judgment, writ, assessment, warrant of
          attachment, or execution or similar process shall be issued or levied
          against a substantial part of our property and such judgment, writ, or
          similar process shall not be released, stayed, vacated or otherwise
          dismissed within thirty (30) days after issue or levy.

Upon the occurrence or existence of any event of default, except as otherwise
provided, and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event of
default, the holder may, by written notice, declare all outstanding amounts
payable under the Notes to be immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or any other notice of any kind.  Upon the occurrence or
existence of any event of default involving appointment of a receiver, trustee,
liquidator or custodian or judgments in excess of $1,500,000, immediately and
without notice, all outstanding amounts payable under the Notes will
automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or any other notice of any kind.  In addition to the foregoing remedies,
upon the occurrence or existence of any event of default, the holders may
exercise any other right, power or remedy permitted to it by law, either by suit
in equity or by action at law, or both.

          outstanding.

We may suspend the use of the prospectus included in the registration statement
under certain circumstances relating to pending corporate developments, public
filings with the SEC and similar events. Any suspension period shall not exceed:

     -    20 consecutive days; or
     -    45 days during any 12-month period.


                                       45

A holder who elects to sell registrable securities pursuant to the registration
statement will be required to:

     -    be named as a selling securityholder in the related prospectus;
     -    deliver a prospectus to purchasers; and
     -    be subject to the provisions of the registration rights agreement,
          including indemnification provisions.

Under the registration rights agreement, we will:

     -    pay all expenses of the registration statement;
     -    provide each registered holder copies of the prospectus;
     -    notify holders when the registration statement has become effective;

          conditions of the registration rights agreement.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by

            REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Houston American Energy Corp.
Houston, Texas


We  have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Houston American Energy Corp.
as  of December 31, 2004 and the related statements of operations, shareholders'
equity,  and  cash  flows for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.  These
financial  statements  are  the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility  is  to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our  audit.

We  conducted  our  audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States).  Those standards require that we
plan  and  perform  the  audit  to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement.  An audit includes
examining,  on  a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the  financial  statements.  An  audit  also  includes  assessing the accounting
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as
evaluating  the  over-all financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audit  provides  a  reasonable  basis  for  our  opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects the financial position of Houston American Energy Corp. as
of  December  31, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the  years  ended  December  31,  2004  and  2003  in conformity with accounting
principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America.

                        NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. - NATURE OF COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GENERAL  -Houston  American Energy Corp. (a Delaware Corporation) ("the Company"
-------
or  "HUSA")  was  incorporated  on  April 2, 2001.  The Company is engaged, as a
non-operating  joint  owner,  in the exploration, development, and production of
natural  gas,  crude  oil, and condensate from properties located principally in
the Gulf Coast area of the United States and international locations with proven
production,  which  to  date  has  focused  on  Columbia,  South  America.

GENERAL  PRINCIPLES  AND  USE  OF  ESTIMATES  The financial statements have been
--------------------------------------------
prepared  in  conformity  with  accounting  principles generally accepted in the
United  States  of  America. In preparing financial statements, Management makes
informed  judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities  as  of the date of the financial statements and affect the reported
amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during the reporting period. On an ongoing
basis,  Management  reviews  its  estimates,  including  those  related  to such
potential  matters  as  litigation,  environmental liabilities, income taxes and
determination of proved reserves.  Changes in facts and circumstances may result
in revised estimates and actual results may differ from these estimates.

Certain  amounts  for  prior  periods  have  been reclassified to conform to the
current  presentation.

OIL AND GAS REVENUES - The Company recognizes sales revenues based on the amount

of gas, oil and condensate sold to purchasers when delivery to the purchaser has
occurred  and  title  has  transferred.  This  occurs  when  production has been
delivered  to  a  pipeline.  Currently, the Company does not anticipate that the
oil  and  gas sold will be significantly different from the Company's production
entitlement.

OIL  AND GAS PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT - The Company uses the full cost method of
-------------------------------------
accounting  for  exploration  and  development activities as defined by the SEC.
Under  this  method  of  accounting,  the  costs  for  unsuccessful,  as well as
successful,  exploration  and  development activities are capitalized as oil and
gas  properties.  Capitalized  costs  include  lease acquisition, geological and
geophysical work, delay rentals, costs of drilling, completing and equipping the
wells  and  any  internal  costs  that  are  directly  related  to  acquisition,
exploration and development activities but does not include any costs related to
production,  general  corporate  overhead or similar activities. Gain or loss on
the  sale  or  other  disposition  of  oil and gas properties is not recognized,
unless  the  gain  or  loss  would  significantly alter the relationship between
capitalized  costs  and proved reserves of oil and natural gas attributable to a
country.

The  Company  categorizes  its full costs pools as costs subject to amortization
and  costs  not  being amortization. The sum of net capitalized costs subject to
amortization,  including estimated future development and abandonment costs, are
amortized  using  the  unit-of-production  method.

Office  equipment  is  stated  at  original  cost  and  is  depreciated  on  the
straight-line  basis over the useful life of the assets, which ranges from three
to  five  years.  Oil and gas properties and office equipment carrying values do
not  purport  to  represent  replacement  or  market  values.

Depreciation  expense for office equipment was $2,175 and $1,119 at December 31,
2004  and 2003, respectively and accumulated reserve for depreciation was $5,458
at  December 31, 2004. Depletion and amortization for oil and gas properties was
$206,584 and $54,831 at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively and accumulated
reserve  for  depletion  and  amortization  was $1,005,397 at December 31, 2004.
Repairs  and  maintenance  are  expensed  as  incurred.

NOTE  1.  -  NATURE  OF  COMPANY  AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)

COSTS  EXCLUDED  -  Oil  and gas properties include costs that are excluded from
---------------
capitalized  costs being amortized. These amounts represent costs of investments
in unproved properties. The Company excludes these costs on a country-by-country
basis  until  proved reserves are found or until it is determined that the costs
are  impaired.  All  costs  excluded  are  reviewed  quarterly  to  determine if
impairment  has  occurred.  The  amount  of any impairment is transferred to the
costs  subject  to  amortization.

CEILING  TEST  -  Under  the  full  cost method of accounting, a ceiling test is
-------------
performed  each  quarter.  The  full  cost  ceiling  test  is an impairment test
prescribed  by  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission (SEC") Regulation S-X. The
ceiling  test  determines  a  limit,  on a country-by-country basis, on the book
value  of  oil  and  gas properties. The capitalized costs of proved oil and gas
properties, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A")
and  the  related deferred income taxes, may not exceed the estimated future net
cash  flows  from proved oil and gas reserves, using prices in effect at the end
of  the period with consideration of price change only to the extent provided by
contractual  arrangement,  discounted  at  10%,  net  of related tax effects. If
capitalized  costs  exceed  this  limit,  the  excess  is charged to expense and
reflected  as  additional  accumulated  DD&A.

Proved oil and gas reserves, as defined by SEC Regulation S-X, are the estimated
quantities  of  crude  oil,  natural  gas,  and  condensate which geological and
engineering  data  demonstrate  with  reasonable  certainty to be recoverable in
future  years  from  known  reservoirs  under  existing  economic  and operating
conditions,  i.e.,  prices and costs as of the date the estimate is made. Prices
include consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual
arrangements,  but  not  on  escalations  based  upon  future  conditions.

Proved  developed  oil  and gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be
recovered  through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.
Additional  oil and gas expected to be obtained through the application of fluid
injection  or  other  improved recovery techniques for supplementing the natural
forces  and  mechanisms  of  primary  recovery  are included as proved developed
reserves  only  after  testing  by  a pilot project or after the operation of an
installed  program  has  confirmed  through  production  response that increased
recovery  will  be  achieved.

Proved  undeveloped  oil  and  gas reserves are reserves that are expected to be
recovered  from  new  wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a
relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Reserves on undrilled
acreage are limited to those drilling units offsetting productive units that are
reasonably  certain  of  production  when  drilled.  Proved  reserves  for other
undrilled  units  are  claimed  only where it can be demonstrated with certainty
that  there  is continuity of production from the existing productive formation.

The  Company  emphasizes  that  the volumes of reserves are estimates, which, by
their  nature,  are  subject  to  revision.  The  estimates  are  made using all
available geological and reservoir data, as well as production performance data.

These estimates, made by an independent reservoir engineer (approximately 79% of
reserves)  and  a  reservoir  engineer  that  is a shareholder, are reviewed and
revised,  either  upward or downward, as warranted by additional data. Revisions
are  necessary  due  to  changes  in  assumptions  based on, among other things,
reservoir  performance,  prices,  economic  conditions  and  governmental
restrictions.  Decreases  in  prices, for example, may cause a reduction in some
proved  reserves  due  to  uneconomical  conditions.

ASSET  RETIREMENT  OBLIGATIONS  -  On  January  1,  2003,  we  adopted SFAS 143,
------------------------------
"Accounting  for  Asset  Retirement Obligations," which addresses accounting and
reporting  for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets  and  the  associated  asset  retirement  costs. For us, asset retirement
obligations ("ARO") represent the systematic, monthly accretion and depreciation
of future abandonment costs of tangible assets such as platforms, wells, service
assets,  pipelines,  and other facilities. SFAS 143 requires that the fair value
of a liability for an asset's retirement obligation be recorded in the period in
which  it  is  incurred  if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made, and
that the corresponding cost is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the
related  long-lived  asset.  The liability is accreted to its then present value
each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the
related asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded
amount,  an  adjustment  is  made  to  the  full cost pool, with no gain or loss
recognized,  unless  the  adjustment  would significantly alter the relationship
between  capitalized  costs  and  proved reserves. Under our previous accounting
method,  we  included estimated future costs of abandonment and dismantlement in
our  full cost amortization base and amortized these costs as a component of our
depletion expense. Subsequent to our adoption of SFAS 143, the ARO assets, which
are  carried  on  the  balance  sheet  as  part of the full cost pool, have been
included  in our amortization base for the purposes of calculating depreciation,
depletion  and  amortization  expense.  The future cash outflows associated with
settling  the  ARO  liability  have  been  adjusted  so they are included in the
ceiling  test.

The  following  table describes changes in our asset retirement liability during
each  of  the  years  ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The ARO liability in the
table  below  includes  amounts  classified  as  both  current  and long-term at
December  31,  2004  and  2003.

                        ---------------------------------

INCOME  TAXES - Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby
-------------
deferred  tax  assets and liabilities are established for the difference between
the  financial  reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities as well
as  operating  loss  and  tax  credit  carry  forwards.  Deferred tax assets are
reduced  by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more
likely  than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.  Deferred  tax  assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes  in  tax  laws  and  rates  on  the  date  of  enactment.

PREFERRED  STOCK  -  The  Company  has authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred
----------------
stock  with  a  par  value of $.001.  The Board of Directors shall determine the
designations, rights, preferences, privileges and voting rights of the preferred
stock  as  well  as  any  restrictions and qualifications thereon.  No shares of
preferred  stock  have  been  issued.

STATEMENT  OF CASH FLOWS - Cash equivalents consists of demand deposits and cash
------------------------
investments with initial maturity dates of less than three months.

NET  LOSS  PER SHARE - Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss
--------------------
available  to  common  shareholders  by  the  weighted  average of common shares
outstanding during the period.  Diluted per share amounts assume the conversion,
exercise,  or  issuance  of  all  potential  common stock instruments unless the
effect  is anti-dilutive, thereby reducing the loss or increasing the income per
share.

CONCENTRATION  OF  RISK -  The Company is dependent upon the industry skills and
-----------------------
contacts  of John F. Terwilliger, the sole director and chief executive officer,
to  identify potential acquisition targets in the onshore coastal Gulf of Mexico
region  of  Texas  and  Louisiana.  Further,  as  a  non-operator  oil  and  gas
exploration  and  production  company  and  through  its  interest  in a limited
liability  company  and  four  concessions  in  the  South  American  country of
Colombia, the Company is dependent on the personnel, management and resources of
those  entities  to  operate  efficiently  and  effectively.

As  a  non-operating joint interest owner, the Company has a right of investment
refusal  on  specific projects and the right to examine and contest its division
of  costs  and  revenues  determined  by  the  company  operator.

The  Company currently has interests in four concessions in Colombia and expects
to  be  active in Colombia for the foreseeable future.  The political climate in
Colombia  is  unstable  and could be subject to radical change over a very short
period  of time.  In the event of a significant negative change in political and
economic  stability  in  the vicinity of the Company's Colombian operations, the
Company  may  be  forced  to  abandon  or suspend their efforts.  Either of such
events  could  be  harmful  to  the  Company  expected  business  prospects.

The Company maintains cash balances in several banks in Houston, Texas. Accounts
at  banks  are  insured  by  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation up to
$100,000.  At  December  31,  2004,  the  Company's  uninsured  cash balance was
approximately  $501,000.

Major Customers - The majority of production for 2004 from the Company's mineral
interests  were  sold  to an international integrated oil company (58%) and to a
U.S.  natural  gas marketing company (17%). There were no other product sales of
more  than  10%  to  a  single  buyer.

At  December  31, 2004, 71% of the Company's net oil and gas property investment
and  68%  of  its  revenue  was  with  or  derived from the company managing the
Columbian  properties.

RECENT  ACCOUNTING  DEVELOPMENTS - On September 28, 2004, the SEC released Staff
--------------------------------
Accounting  Bulletin  ("SAB")  106  regarding  the  application  of  SFAS  143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations ("AROs")," by oil and gas producing
companies  following  the  full cost accounting method. Pursuant to SAB 106, oil
and gas producing companies that have adopted SFAS 143 should exclude the future
cash  outflows  associated  with  settling  AROs  (ARO  liabilities)  from  the
computation  of  the  present  value  of  estimated  future net revenues for the
purposes  of  the  full  cost  ceiling  calculation.  In  addition,  estimated

salvage  values,  which have been capitalized (ARO assets) should be included in
the  amortization  base  for  computing depreciation, depletion and amortization
expense.  Disclosures  are  required  to  include  discussion of how a company's
ceiling  test  and  depreciation,  depletion  and  amortization calculations are
impacted  by  the adoption of SFAS 143. SAB 106 is effective prospectively as of
the  beginning  of  the  first  fiscal  quarter beginning after October 4, 2004.
Since  the  Company's  adoption  of  SFAS  143  on  January  1,  2003, they have
calculated the ceiling test and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense
in  accordance  with  the  interpretations  set forth in SAB 106; therefore, the
adoption  of  SAB  106  had  no  effect  on  the  financial  statements.

On  December  16,  2004,  the  FASB  revised  Statement  123  (revised  2004),
"Share-Based  Payment"  that  will  require  compensation  costs  related  to
share-based payment transactions (e.g., issuance of stock options and restricted
stock)  to  be  recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions,
the  amount  of  compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair
value  of  the  equity  or  liability instruments issued. In addition, liability
awards  will  be  remeasured  each  reporting  period. Compensation cost will be
recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the
award.  Statement  123(R)  replaces  SFAS  123,  "Accounting  for  Stock-  Based
Compensation,"  and  supersedes  Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
25,  "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." For the Company, SFAS 123(R) is
effective  for  the  first  quarterly  reporting period after December 15, 2005.
Entities  that  use  the  fair-value-based  method  for  either  recognition  or
disclosure  under  SFAS  123  are required to apply SFAS 123(R) using a modified
version  of  prospective  application.  Under  this  method,  an  entity records
compensation  expense  for  all  awards it grants after the date of adoption. In
addition, the entity is required to record compensation expense for the unvested
portion  of  previously  granted  awards  that remain outstanding at the date of
adoption.  In addition, entities may elect to adopt SFAS 123(R) using a modified
retrospective  method  where  by  previously  issued  financial  statements  are
restated  based  on  the  expense  previously calculated and reported in the pro
forma  footnote  disclosures.  The  Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS
123(R)  to  have  a  material  impact  on  the  financial  statements.

On  December  16, 2004, the FASB issued Statement 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary
Assets",  an  amendment  of  APB  Opinion  No. 29, to clarify the accounting for
nonmonetrary  exchanges  of  similar productive assets.  SFAS 153 eliminates the
exception  from  the fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar
productive  assets  and  replaces  it  with a general exception for exchanges of
nonmonetary  assets  that  do  not  have  commercial  substance.  A  nonmonetary
exchange  has  commercial  substance  if the future cash flows of the entity are
expected  to  change  significantly  as a result of the exchange.  The Statement
will  be  applied prospectively and is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges
occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005.  The Company does not
have  any  nonmonetary transactions for any period presented that this Statement
would  apply.   The  Company  does not expect the adoption of SFAS 153 to have a
material  impact  on  the  financials  statements.

NOTE  2.  -  NOTES  PAYABLE

Notes payable at December 31, 2004, in the amount of $1,000,000, is owed to John
Terwilliger, Chief Executive Officer, who is also a significant shareholder. The
notes are not secured, bear interest at 7.2% and are due on January 1, 2007 with
interest  paid  monthly,  based  on  cash  flow.

NOTE  3.  -  RELATED  PARTIES

The  Company's  original  oil  and  gas  properties  in Lavaca County Texas were
purchased  from  John  F.  Terwilliger, Chief Executive Officer, and a principal
shareholder,  at  their  cost.

John  F.  Terwilliger  has  not  received any direct or indirect compensation or
other  salary  related  benefits  from  the  Company  before  October  1,  2004.
Effective  that date he started receiving a salary. He was paid $45,000 in 2004.

In  conjunction  with  the  Company's  efforts  to secure oil and gas prospects,
financing  and  services,  it has, from time to time, granted overriding royalty
interests  in  the  Company's various mineral properties to John F. Terwilliger,
Chief  Executive Officer, and Orrie L. Tawes, a significant shareholder.  During
2004, approximately $36,000 was paid to John Terwilliger and Orrie L. Tawes from
these  royalty  interests.

No  federal income taxes have been paid since the inception of the Company.  The
Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1,351,000 which
will expire in 2016 through 2019. The Company's net operating loss carryforwards
may  be  subject  to  annual  limitations,  which  could  reduce  or  defer  the
utilization of the loss as a result of or ownership change as defined in section
382  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.

The  tax effects of the temporary differences between financial statement income
and  taxable  income  are  recognized  as  a  deferred  tax asset and liability.
Significant  components  of  the deferred tax asset and liability as of December
31,  2004  are  set  out  below.

NOTE  5.  -  COMMON  STOCK

During  the  year ended December 31, 2004, the Company (1) issued 532,983 shares
of  its common stock for cash consideration of $350,443, (2) in conjunction with
an agreement with an individual to assist the Company in locating viable oil and
gas  prospects, issued 50,000 shares of its common stock, valued at $47,500, and
granted  an  interest  equal  to  10% of the Company's interest in any prospects
generated  by  the  individual's  contacts, and (3) issued 100,000 shares of its
common stock, valued at $103,000, for financial public relations services over a
six  month period. The value of the shares issued for financial public relations
services  was  recorded as prepaid expense and charged to shareholders relations
expense  ratably  over  the  life  of  the  contract. During September 2004, the
Company  entered  into  negotiations to terminate the financial public relations
contract as a result of disputes relating to performance under the contract. The
financial  public  relations  contract  was  terminated,  the  100,000  shares
originally  issued  under  the  contract  were  returned  to the Company and the
Company  paid  $5,000  in  full  settlement  of the contract. As a result of the
termination  and settlement of the public relations contract, during the quarter
ended  September 30, 2004, the Company recorded shareholder relations expense of
$5,000, credited $85,834 against prepaid expenses and recorded treasury stock in
the  amount  of  $85,834.

NOTE  6.  -  COMMITMENTS  AND  CONTINGENCIES

LEASE COMMITMENT - The Company leases office facilities under an operating lease
----------------
agreement which expires November 30, 2006. The lease agreement requires payments
of $39,631 in 2005 and $33,026 in 2006. Total rental expense in 2004 was $39,772
and  $41,219  in  2003.  The  Company  does not have any capital leases or other
operating  lease  commitments.

LEGAL  CONTINGENCIES  -  The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and
--------------------
liabilities  that  arise  in  the  ordinary  course of its business. The Company
accrues  for  losses  associated with legal claims when such losses are probable
and  can  be  reasonably  estimated.  These  accruals  are  adjusted  as further
information  develops  or  circumstances  change. During the twelve months ended
December  31,  2004,  the  Company was named as defendant in a suit filed in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The plaintiff
alleges  that  expenses  relating  to the formation and operation of the Company
were  paid  by  Moose  Oil and Gas or Moose Operating Company, that interests in
certain  oil  and  gas properties were transferred to the Company from Moose Oil
and  Gas  or Moose Operating Company and that the alleged payments and transfers
constituted  fraudulent transfers and avoidable preferences. The plaintiff seeks
to recover all properties alleged to have been wrongfully transferred as well as
costs  of suit and other relief. The Company believes that the action is without
merit  and  intends  to  vigorously  contest  the  same.

The  supplemental  un-audited  presentation  of  proved  reserve  quantities and
related  standardized  measure  of  discounted  future  net  cash flows provides
estimates  only and does not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market
values  of  the  Company's  reserves.  Volumes  reported for proved reserves are
based  on  reasonable  estimates.  These  estimates  are consistent with current
knowledge  of  the  characteristics and production history of the reserves.  The
Company  emphasizes  that  reserve  estimates  are inherently imprecise and that
estimates  of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of producing oil and
gas  properties.  Accordingly,  significant  changes  to  these estimates can be
expected  as  future  information  becomes  available.

Proved  reserves are those estimated reserves of crude oil (including condensate
and  natural  gas  liquids) and natural gas that geological and engineering data
demonstrate  with  reasonable  certainty  to be recoverable in future years from
known  reservoirs  under  existing  economic  and  operating conditions.  Proved
developed  reserves  are  those expected to be recovered through existing wells,
equipment,  and  operating  methods.

Independent  petroleum  engineers  estimated  proved  reserves for the Company's
properties  which  represented  approximately  79% of total estimated future net
revenues  at  December  31,  2004.  The  remaining  reserves were estimated by a
petroleum engineer who is also a shareholder of the company. Reserve definitions
and  pricing  requirements  prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission
were  used. Total estimated proved developed and undeveloped reserves by product
type  and  the  changes  therein  are  set  forth below for the years indicated.

The  standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved
oil  and  gas  reserves  is  computed by applying year-end prices of oil and gas
(with  consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual
arrangements) to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves,
less  estimated  future expenditures (based on year-end costs) to be incurred in
developing  and  producing  the  proved  reserves, less estimated related future
income  tax  expenses (based on year-end statutory tax rates, with consideration
of  future  tax rates already legislated), and assuming continuation of existing
economic  conditions.  Future  income  tax  expenses  give  effect  to permanent
differences  and  tax  credits  but  do  not  reflect  the  impact of continuing
operations  including  property  acquisitions  and  exploration.  The  estimated
future  cash  flows  are  then  discounted using a rate of ten percent a year to
reflect  the  estimated  timing  of  the  future  cash  flows.

NOTE 2. - CHANGES IN PRESENTATION

NOTE 3. - SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE NOTES

On May 4, 2005, the Company entered into Purchase Agreements (the "Purchase
Agreements") with multiple investors pursuant to which the Company sold
$2,125,000 of 8% Subordinated Convertible Notes Due 2010 (the "Notes").

The Notes bear interest at 8%, provide for semi-annual interest payments and
mature May 1, 2010.  The Notes are convertible, at the option of the holders,
into common stock of the Company at a price of $1.00 per share (the "Conversion
Price"), subject to standard anti-dilution provisions relating to splits,
reverse splits and other transactions, including issuances of common stock at
prices below the Conversion Price.  The Notes are subject to automatic
conversion in the event the Company conducts an underwritten public offering of
its common stock from which the Company receives at least $5 million and the
public offering price is at least 150% of the then applicable Conversion Price.
The Company has the right to cause the Notes to be converted into common stock
after May 1, 2006 if the price of the Company's common stock exceeds 200% of the
then applicable Conversion Price on the date of conversion and for at least 20
trading days over the preceding 30 trading days.  The Company has the right to
repurchase the Notes after May 1, 2007 at 103% of the face amount during 2007,
102% of the face amount during 2008, 101% of the face amount during 2009 and
100% of the face amount thereafter.  The Notes are unsecured general obligations
of the Company and are subordinated to all other indebtedness of the Company
unless the other indebtedness is expressly made subordinate to the Notes.

The Notes were offered and sold in private placement transaction pursuant to the
exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.  Each of the investors is either an
"accredited investor", as defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities
Act, or a "qualified institutional buyer", as defined in Rule 144A promulgated
under the Securities Act.


                                      F-21

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreements, the Company and the investors
entered into Registration Rights Agreements under which the Company agreed to
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, within 90 days, a registration
statement covering the Notes and the common stock underlying the Notes and to
use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective
within 180 days.

In connection with the placement of the Notes, the Company issued to the
placement agent in the offering a three year warrant (the "Placement Agent
Warrant") to purchase 191,250 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per
share and paid commissions totaling $127,500.  The Registration Rights
Agreements provide that the shares of common stock underlying the Placement
Agent Warrant are to be included in the registration statement required to be
filed.

                                    PART II

                     INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 24.     INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") empowers a
Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. A
corporation may, in advance of the final disposition of any civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, pay the expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by any officer, director, employee or agent
in defending such action, provided that the director or officer undertakes to
repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled
to be indemnified by the corporation. A corporation may indemnify such person
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

     A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by
or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor under the
same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial
approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.
Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the
defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him
against the expenses (including attorneys fees) that he actually and reasonably
incurred in connection therewith. The indemnification provided is not deemed to
be exclusive of any other rights to which an officer or director may be entitled
under any corporation's by-law, agreement, vote or otherwise.

     In accordance with Section 145 of the DGCL, the company's Certificate of
Incorporation (the "Certificate") provides that the company shall indemnify each
person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the company
(including the heirs, executors, administrators or estate of such person) or is
or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, to the fullest extent permitted. The indemnification provided by the
Certificate shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any of
those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under
any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholder or disinterested directors or
otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in
another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person
who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to
the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending a civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the
company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding
upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnified person to
repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled
to be indemnified by the company. The Certificate provides that a director of
the company shall not be personally liable to the company or its stockholders
for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the company or
its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of
the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit.

               registration statement.

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3,
and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.


                                      II-4

     (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the 
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.

(b)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.


                                      II-5

                                   SIGNATURES

registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form SB-2 and authorized this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned in the City of Houston,
State of Texas on the 29th day of August, 2005.
