                    PURSUANT TO RULE 13A-14(A)/15(D)-14(A)

I, S. Matthew Schultz, certify that:

1.I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Amerigo  Energy,  Inc. for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement  of
a  material  fact  or  omit  to  state  a  material  fact necessary to make the
statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were
made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

3.  Based  on  my  knowledge,  the  financial statements, and  other  financial
information included in this report,  fairly  present  in all material respects
the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant
as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.  I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure  controls  and
procedures  (as  defined  in  Exchange  Act  Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-14(e)) for
the registrant and have:

a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure
controls  and  procedures  to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that
material information relating  to  the  registrant,  including its consolidated
subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
during the period in which this report is being prepared;

b)  designed  such internal control over financial reporting,  or  caused  such
internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision,
to  provide  reasonable   assurance  regarding  the  reliability  of  financial
reporting and the preparation  of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

c) evaluated the effectiveness of  the  registrant's  disclosure  controls  and
procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness
of  the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered
by this report based on such evaluation; and

5.  I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation  of  internal  control
over  financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee
of the  registrant's  board  of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
functions):

a) all significant deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses  in  the  design  or
operation  of  internal  control  over financial reporting which are reasonably
likely  to  adversely  affect  the registrant's  ability  to  record,  process,
summarize and report financial information; and

b)  any  fraud, whether or not material,  that  involves  management  or  other
employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal control over
financial reporting.
