ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On October 23, 2000, FX Energy, Inc. announced that drilling of the Tuchola
108-2 well has commenced. The well is operated by Apache Corporation and is
planned to test both Permian and Devonian horizons on the 2.2 million acre
Pomeranian concession in northwestern Poland. FX Energy and Apache each own a
42.5% interest in the well and the Polish Oil and Gas Company ("POGC") owns 15%.
FX Energy's cost of drilling the well is carried by Apache.
The next well to be drilled under the FX Energy/Apache Exploration Program is
the Annopol 254-1 well in the Warsaw West concession. The well is scheduled to
begin drilling late in the fourth quarter.
FX Energy also reported the status of operations in the 300,000 acre Fences
project area in western Poland, where FX Energy is exploring and developing two
separate Permian age trends in partnership with POGC.
Mieszkow Well
The Mieszkow well is currently logging. After logging is completed, intermediate
casing will be run to a depth of 2,400 meters and drilling will then continue to
a projected total depth of 3,000 meters. The well is being drilled on a 3-D
seismic-defined structure located in the Permian age Rotliegendes trend.
Pipeline Connection Kleka 11
Right-of-way work on the pipeline to connect the Kleka 11 well into the POGC gas
grid is underway. FX Energy and POGC plan to build the pipeline and connect to
facilities at the nearby Radlin field that is owned and operated by POGC.
Donatowo 3-D Acquisition
The 100 square kilometer 3-D seismic acquisition over the 2-D defined Donatowo
reef prospect has been completed. The prospect is located within the Permian age
reef trend that extends for approximately 45 kilometers along the southern
portion of the Fences. Seismic will be processed and interpreted in order to
select the initial drillsite in the Donatowo prospect area.
Zaniemysl 3-D Acquisition
Acquisition of 3-D seismic over several 2-D seismic-defined leads in the
Zaniemysl area located in the Rotliegendes trend southeast of the POGC owned
Kaleje field has been completed. The seismic will be processed and interpreted
in order to select the first Zaniemysl drilling location.
