DALLAS, TX – January 25, 2006 - Cubic Energy, Inc., (OTCBB:QBIK) (“Cubic” or the “Company”) provided an update today on its drilling operations. Specifically, the drilling of the S.E. Johnson 20 #1 continues as expected. This well, which spud on January 12, 2006, is currently drilling at approximately 8,500 feet on its way to a total depth of 10,500 feet. The S.E. Johnson 20 #1 represents the Company’s fourth Cotton Valley test in the Bethany Longstreet field. The road and location for the S.E. Johnson 29 #1, the Company’s fifth Cotton Valley test is proceeding as planned and drilling operations are expected to commence next month following the rig move from the S.E. Johnson 20 #1. Richard Sepulvado, Senior Vice-President of Exploration and Production stated: “We expect this well to confirm the eastern expanse of our southern Bethany Longstreet acreage. That acreage, which is comprised of eight contiguous sections, is on structure and is expected to have productive intervals in the Cotton Valley, Hosston and several other shallow formations. We have not yet reached total depth in the S.E. Johnson 20 #1, however we are encountering the targeted shallow formations at the depths we expected. Although further testing will be required to confirm the productivity of this well, indications from the mud logs are positive.” In addition to the aforementioned wells, Cubic expects to drill at least four additional wells on its Bethany Longstreet acreage during 2006. Those wells, which are also expected to be drilled in Cubic’s southern Bethany Longstreet acreage, are scheduled to begin in the second calendar quarter. Cubic Energy,
