HOUSTON, Feb. 7 -- Aspen Group Resources Corp., Calgary, secured a rig and plans to start a multiwell development program for oil in Mississippian Lodgepole in Daly field in southwestern Manitoba in April 2006.

Aspen operates a 50-50 joint venture with Westchester Resources Inc. that holds 2,760 acres in the field. Multiple wells could be drilled on as many as 25 tracts. Other potential may exist in other zones in the Lodgepole and Bakken formations, Aspen said.
