FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: This press release contains certain statements that may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Such statements relate to possible future events, including, but not limited to: PetroTal's business strategy, objectives, strength and focus; oil production levels, well payout production and the ability of the Company to achieve near term production targets; anticipated future production and revenue; continued operation of the ONP and PetroTal's access thereto, the Company's expectations regarding netbacks and free cash flow; and future development and growth prospects. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. In addition, statements relating to expected production, reserves, recovery, costs and valuation are deemed to be forward-looking statements as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the reserves described can be profitably produced in the future. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "estimate", "potential", "will", "should", "continue", "may", "objective" and similar expressions. The forward-looking statements are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by the Company, including, but not limited to, expectations and assumptions concerning the ability of existing infrastructure to deliver production and the anticipated capital expenditures associated therewith, the ability of the Ministry of Energy to effectively achieve its objectives in respect of reducing social conflict and collaborating towards continued investment in the energy sector, reservoir characteristics, recovery factor, exploration upside, prevailing commodity prices and the actual prices received for PetroTal's products, including pursuant to hedging arrangements, the availability and performance of drilling rigs, facilities, pipelines, other oilfield services and skilled labour, royalty regimes and exchange rates, the application of regulatory and licensing requirements, the accuracy of PetroTal's geological interpretation of its drilling and land opportunities, current legislation, receipt of required regulatory approval, the success of future drilling and development activities, the performance of new wells, the Company's growth strategy, general economic conditions and availability of required equipment and services. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses; and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price volatility, price differentials and the actual prices received for products, exchange rate fluctuations, legal, political and economic instability in Peru, access to transportation routes and markets for the Company's production, changes in legislation affecting the oil and gas industry and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. In addition, the Company cautions that current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of the COVID-19 virus and its effect on the broader global economy may have a significant negative effect on the Company. While the precise impact of the COVID-19 virus on the Company remains unknown, rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus may continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic activity, and may continue to result in volatility and disruption to global supply chains, operations, mobility of people and the financial markets, which could affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, inflation, business, financial conditions, results of operations and other factors relevant to the Company. Please refer to the risk factors identified in the most recent management's discussion and analysis and the most recent annual information form which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

$PTALF PetroTal Announces a Peaceful Resolution to the Protest Near PetroTal's Loading Dock
Press Release | 12/06/2021
Well 9H Production Started

Strong Forward Liquidity Profile

Calgary, Alberta and Houston, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - December 6, 2021) - PetroTal Corp. (TSXV: TAL) (AIM: PTAL) (OTC Pink: PTALF) ("PetroTal" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following update:

End of Social Protests at PetroTal's Loading Dock

Following recent announcements, PetroTal is pleased to announce an end to the social protests near PetroTal's oil loading facility. PetroTal's recently announced social initiatives contributed to the peaceful resolution.

Barges from Brazil are on site and commenced oil loading operations on December 3, 2021. This will allow PetroTal to ramp up production during the next few days starting with the new 9H horizontal well that was put on production on December 5, 2021 and recommence sales to the Iquitos refinery and through the Brazilian export routes.

Currently, PetroTal has approximately 300,000 barrels of oil on barges, of which 135,000 barrels are near Pump Station No.1 ("PS1") at Saramuro, awaiting Petroperu's ONP pipeline operations to restart, and involves reopening PS5. The remaining barrels on barges are heading to the Iquitos refinery or to Brazil.

As of December 3, 2021, the protests at PS1 were resolved, demonstrating the positive momentum of the initiatives PetroTal is promoting. Regarding Pump Station No.5 ("PS5"), a meeting between the government and the indigenous federations has been proposed for December 10, 2021, with the intent to set a working table aimed at achieving a long-term solution to the ongoing protests due to lack of government attention. In exchange for setting up this working table, the protesters have offered a 30-day truce starting that same day.

If the 30-day truce is not achieved, the Company may need to constrain production by the third week of December 2021. PetroTal is also commissioning additional barges that would allow the Company to produce unconstrained through December 2021. Including flush production from the recently drilled and completed 9H well, the Company expects to initially produce over 18,000 bopd, although this is likely to be constrained to manage storage and offtake capacity. Beyond December 2021, PetroTal will require normal access to Petroperu's ONP pipeline route to produce unconstrained in 2022.

Well 9H Update

PetroTal is also pleased to announce well 9H was completed on December 1, 2021, to fill the wellbore with oil and inflate the packers. A recent December 6, 2021 initial flow rate achieved approximately 9,000 bopd of flush production. When available, PetroTal will provide the 10 and 30-day average production rates for the 9H well.

Liquidity Update

PetroTal is pleased to announce that its forward liquidity profile remains strong with a material cash buffer in December 2021, which is forecast to continue through Q1 2022 with a continuous capital program. This simulated forecast assumes conservative field closure conditions for the remainder of 2021, constrained oil field operations, reduced Brent prices, and moderate oil sales from currently loaded barges.

Manuel Pablo Zuniga-Pflucker, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented

"We are very pleased to have reached a peaceful settlement with the protesting community near the PetroTal dock. Based on the Company's initiatives to promote change and an equalization of social profits, a sense of confidence and trust was created between our groups. We look forward to completing the legal and administrative efforts through the remainder of 2021 for the Social Fund to be live and active in early 2022. We are also seeing the government engaged in achieving a long-term resolution to the ongoing ONP protests at pump stations 1 and 5 which will hopefully lead to a full reopening of the ONP route in the near term. PetroTal is doing everything we can to support those discussions. On operations, I need to thank the entire PetroTal team for achieving another exceptional result in the 9H horizontal oil well, which was opened at more than 9,000 bopd, a new record for our Bretana oil field."

The headline coming out of Peruvian politics has become disturbing
Peru PM warns gas sector: pay higher taxes or face nationalization
LIMA Peruvian Prime Minister Guido Bellido on Sunday said that companies which exploit natural gas in Peru will need to agree to pay higher taxes or else face nationalizations, a sharp warning to the sector from the new leftist government.

Sep 26 2021

If you google Reuters Peru, the headlines are disturbing about where this government is heading. Exited my position today.

$PTALF PetroTal Announces Drilling Commencement of Well BN-9H and Continued Robust Field Production over 15,000 bopd
Press Release | 09/29/2021
Calgary, Alberta and Houston, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - September 29, 2021) - PetroTal Corp. (TSXV: TAL) (AIM: PTAL) (OTC Pink: PTALF) ("PetroTal" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has commenced drilling development well BN-9H ("9H"), the Company's next horizontal well, and continued robust field production in excess of 15,000 barrels of oil per day ("bopd"). All amounts herein are in United States dollars ("USD") unless otherwise stated.

Well 9H drilling commencement

PetroTal recently commenced drilling the 9H well, PetroTal's fifth horizontal well drilled by the Company, and the tenth oil producer.

This will be PetroTal's longest reach horizontal well to date;
The well cost is approximately $13.9 million and is the first to be drilled with a synthetic mud system;
Drilling and completion should be finished in the second half of November 2021; and
The well is expected to contribute materially to exit 2021 production.
Bretana field continues to achieve robust field production

Bretana's average field production for the ten days ended September 27, 2021 was 15,494 bopd;
Demonstrates success of the revised water disposal strategy, allowing full water disposal into the two disposal wells;
Using an $80/bbl Brent oil price and PetroTal's estimated EBITDA netback of approximately $47/bbl, annualized earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") at 15,000 bopd would be approximately $255 million; and
This expected significant EBITDA growth will easily allow PetroTal to complete the remaining Bretana development wells, retire the bond obligations early and examine ways to return value to shareholders, in due course.
Manuel Pablo Zuniga-Pflucker, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"We are entering the fourth quarter in the strongest position PetroTal has seen, from both an operational and financial perspective. The recent rise in Brent oil prices has created an environment for substantial returns on invested capital and we look to continue our momentum into Q4 2021, and beyond. Petrotal is showing it is well positioned as a dynamic emerging market play, given our strategic investment in Peru's Bretana field, that is delivering strong results."

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: This press release contains certain statements that may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Such statements relate to possible future events, including, but not limited to: PetroTal's business strategy, objectives, strength and focus; oil production levels, well payout production and the ability of the Company to achieve near term production targets; anticipated future production and revenue; continued operation of the ONP and PetroTal's access thereto, the Company's expectations regarding netbacks and free cash flow; and future development and growth prospects. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. In addition, statements relating to expected production, reserves, recovery, costs and valuation are deemed to be forward-looking statements as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the reserves described can be profitably produced in the future. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "estimate", "potential", "will", "should", "continue", "may", "objective" and similar expressions. The forward-looking statements are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by the Company, including, but not limited to, expectations and assumptions concerning the ability of existing infrastructure to deliver production and the anticipated capital expenditures associated therewith, the ability of the Ministry of Energy to effectively achieve its objectives in respect of reducing social conflict and collaborating towards continued investment in the energy sector, reservoir characteristics, recovery factor, exploration upside, prevailing commodity prices and the actual prices received for PetroTal's products, including pursuant to hedging arrangements, the availability and performance of drilling rigs, facilities, pipelines, other oilfield services and skilled labour, royalty regimes and exchange rates, the application of regulatory and licensing requirements, the accuracy of PetroTal's geological interpretation of its drilling and land opportunities, current legislation, receipt of required regulatory approval, the success of future drilling and development activities, the performance of new wells, the Company's growth strategy, general economic conditions and availability of required equipment and services. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses; and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price volatility, price differentials and the actual prices received for products, exchange rate fluctuations, legal, political and economic instability in Peru, access to transportation routes and markets for the Company's production, changes in legislation affecting the oil and gas industry and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. In addition, the Company cautions that current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of the COVID-19 virus and its effect on the broader global economy may have a significant negative effect on the Company. While the precise impact of the COVID-19 virus on the Company remains unknown, rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus may continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic activity, and may continue to result in volatility and disruption to global supply chains, operations, mobility of people and the financial markets, which could affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, inflation, business, financial conditions, results of operations and other factors relevant to the Company. Please refer to the risk factors identified in the most recent management's discussion and analysis and the most recent annual information form which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws.

OIL AND GAS INFORMATION: References in this press release to short-term production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for PetroTal. The Company cautions that such results should be considered to be preliminary.

RESERVES DISCLOSURE: The reserve estimates contained herein were derived from a reserves assessment and evaluation prepared by Netherland Sewell Associates, Inc., a qualified independent reserves evaluator, with an effective date of December 31, 2020 (the "NSAI Reserves Report"). The NSAI Reserves Report has been prepared in accordance with definitions, standards and procedures contained in National Instrument 51-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51 101") and the most recent publication of the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (the "COGE Handbook") The reserve estimates contained herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Volumes of reserves have been presented based on the Company's total working interest. Readers should give attention to the estimates of individual classes of reserves and appreciate the differing probabilities of recovery associated with each category. The estimates of reserves for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation.

TYPE CURVES: Certain type curve disclosure presented herein represents estimates of the production decline and ultimate volumes expected to be recovered from wells over the life of the well. The type curves represent what management thinks an average well will achieve, based on methodology that is analogous to wells with similar geological features. Individual wells may be higher or lower but over a larger number of wells, management expects the average to come out to the type curve. Over time type curves can and will change based on achieving more production history on older wells or more recent completion information on newer wells. Additional details on well performance and management's type curves are available in the presentation on PetroTal's website at www.petrotal-corp.com.

OIL REFERENCES: All references to "oil" or "crude oil" production, revenue or sales in this press release mean "heavy crude oil" as defined in NI 51-101. All references to Brent indicate Intercontinental Exchange ("ICE") Brent.

NON-GAAP MEASURES: This press release contains financial terms that are not considered measures under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") such as operating netback and free cash flow that do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for its own performance measurement and to provide shareholders and investors with additional measurements of the Company's efficiency and its ability to fund a portion of its future capital expenditures. Netback is calculated by dividing net operating income by barrels sold in the corresponding period. Free cash flow is operating cash flow before hedging minus maintenance capital expenditures. Please refer to the most recent management's discussion and analysis for additional information relating to non-GAAP measures.

FOFI DISCLOSURE: This press release contains future-oriented financial information and financial outlook information (collectively, "FOFI") about PetroTal's prospective results of operations, production and well payout production, 2021 capital program and budget, free cash flow and components thereof, all of which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications as set forth in the above paragraphs. FOFI contained in this press release was approved by management as of the date of this press release and was included for the purpose of providing further information about PetroTal's anticipated future business operations. PetroTal disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any FOFI contained in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required pursuant to applicable law. Readers are cautioned that the FOFI contained in this press release should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed herein. All FOFI contained in this press release complies with the requirements of Canadian securities legislation, including NI 51-101.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this press release.

December 2019 this company did pay out a small dividend as cash flow with much lower production and gas prices.
I try to invest in management teams focused on shareholders. I like this management team.

After 2019 of course the company had to deal with Covid and actually being shutdown:
Petrotal announces that the Northern Oil Pipeline (“ONP”) operated by PETROPERU S.A. (“Petroperu”) has been shut down by a public health directive from the Peruvian government, thereby resulting in PetroTal having to shut in the Bretana oil field as a result of storage capacity limitations. Additionally, PetroTal provides an update on financing initiatives to accommodate the impact of oil price reductions occurring from oil sales at the Bretana oil field in Block 95 in Peru.

* Today they announce record production of 15,000 bopd from the Bretana field

It's alive, just announced a gusher at 8000 bopd, looks like they Boys have stumbled on the honey pot. A few months ago the same field saw a new well proceeding 4000 bopd. No need to augment the natural flow so this field has plenty of potential and the company is expanding fast.

Knock out the debt and cash flow can pay for expansion and a dividend in 2022.

huge potential this will be a BOB

STERLING RESOURCES ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL BREAGH WELL A07 FRACTURE STIMULATION AND WELL TEST

Calgary, Alberta, Canada, June 16, 2014 – Sterling Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SLG) ("Sterling" or the "Company") is pleased to advise that fracture stimulation and production testing of Breagh well A07 have been successfully completed.

After several days of flowing the well to clean it up, the well was production tested at a stabilized rate of 32 million standard cubic feet per day (100 percent) at the planned initial operating conditions of the well. The performance achieved under these conditions represents an estimated two to three-fold increase in production rates over what would have been expected if the well had been completed with the standard completion used in the Breagh field to date. The well will now be tied into production over the summer in parallel with the drilling of well A08, which should commence within the next two weeks.

The A07 well was drilled during the fourth quarter of 2013 to a location approximately 2 kilometres to the south-east of the Alpha platform, encountering 100 feet of net pay in two separate zones. The well was suspended in early January 2014 to release the ENSCO 70 drilling rig for a planned period of maintenance and upgrade. The rig arrived back on location at Breagh in early May and re-entered A07 to commence operations with the assistance of the Schlumberger Big Orange XVIII well-stimulation vessel. Fracture stimulations were performed over the two reservoir zones, Zone 1, which is the main productive zone and reserves base in the Breagh field, and Zone 3, which Sterling currently classifies as contingent resources. A total of 179,500 pounds of proppant was pumped. The estimated overall cost of the fracture treatment is approximately US$10 million (100 percent interest), or US$3 million net to Sterling.

"These results have exceeded our expectations," stated John Rapach, Chief Operating Officer for Sterling Resources. "We achieved a marked improvement on Zone 1 production rates. The results are also very relevant for the Phase 2 development of Breagh on which we continue to work with Operator RWE Dea to firm up the plans for submission of a Field Development Plan Addendum," added Mr. Rapach.

Jake Ulrich, Chief Executive Officer for Sterling Resources, also commented, "After the lower than expected initial rate from some of the Breagh wells and the delays in production due to the unplanned shut-ins, it is particularly pleasing to announce an excellent result with the first fracture stimulation. This will have significant positive implications for the ongoing development of the Breagh field and the future cash flow that we expect to receive."

Vitol to offer $192 mln for Sterling Resources

Wed Feb 13, 2013 6:12am EST
* Acquisition would give exposure to North Sea oil assets

* Offer amounts to around $192 million, or C$0.85/share

* Follows financial assistance to Sterling Resources

GENEVA, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Top oil trading house Vitol plans to offer C$192 million ($192 million) for Canadian oil and gas group Sterling Resources, to gain a foothold in the North Sea oil and gas sector.

The planned deal, worth C$0.85 per Sterling Resources share - a 79 percent premium to Tuesday's close at C$0.475, is the latest in a series of moves by Vitol to acquire physical energy assets.

"Vitol has held discussions with Sterling's management and, based on the company's inability to find an acceptable long-term financing solution, Vitol Anker has decided to pursue an offer for the company," Vitol said on Wednesday.

The bid follows the purchase of a Swiss oil refinery from insolvent refiner Petroplus last year and the gradual expansion of oil exploration in west Africa.

Calgary-based Sterling Resources, drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea and with energy assets in France, the Netherlands and Romania, said it had received an unsolicited takeover bid from Vitol.

"Sterling has also had discussions with third parties on other potential transactions including business combinations, sales of subsidiaries and assets and additional financing opportunities," it said.

Vitol said it was prepared to enter further talks with Sterling to provide additional interim financing.

CALGARY , Dec. 14, 2012 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (SLG.V) ("Sterling" or "the Company") is pleased to announce a gas discovery following the drilling of the Eugenia-1 well drilled in the Black Sea offshore Romania . The well reached a total measured depth ("MD") at 2,276 metres (2,248 metres subsea).
The preliminary log analysis indicates a total of 22 metres of gas-bearing Late Cretaceous sandstones, mainly within two intervals. Average porosity ranges from 10 to 20 percent and average gas saturations range from 55 to 62 percent. The sandstone units are located within the interval 1,938 to 2,038 metres MD. Formation pressure data and recovered gas samples from open-hole logging tools confirm moveable gas. Further detailed analysis of logs, pressure data and samples is ongoing.

In addition to these Late Cretaceous sandstones, a further 20 metre zone of interest is evident within an Eocene limestone section from 1,900 to 1,938 metres. The interval was drilled with gas shows but attempts to collect pressure data were unsuccessful although this is not an uncommon occurrence in carbonates where matrix porosity is limited. Log analysis will be undertaken to determine if the Eocene limestone could be gas bearing and producible as was the case in the adjacent Olimpiyskaya well.

"The Eugenia-1 well is the first exploration well to be drilled on the 2,312 square kilometre Pelican Block which is equivalent in size to ten United Kingdom North Sea Blocks," stated Pat Whitley , Sterling's Vice President Exploration International . "The presence of gas in both the Eocene limestone and Cretaceous sand sections in this first exploration well is a great step forward for exploration in the Pelican Block."
A third, shallower but high-risk objective of the well was to test the stratigraphy of a large Oligocene slump or fan structure as outlined by seismic. Although drilled at a downdip location to enable drilling of the deeper Eocene and Late Cretaceous main objectives from the same well location, 100 metres of good quality sandstones with some minor gas shows were encountered. "With the quality and quantity of potential reservoir sands, the Oligocene structure remains an interesting prospect updip of the current well," added Mr. Whitley .
"We are delighted to have drilled two exploration wells this year in our highly prospective blocks in the Black Sea safely and on budget and found hydrocarbons in both. We have achieved our long-stated objectives to return to operations in Romania and now plan to review these well results in planning an active work program in both blocks over the next couple of years," stated Mike Azancot, Sterling's President and CEO.
Midia Resources SRL, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sterling Resources Ltd (65 percent working interest), is the operator of the Midia and Pelican Blocks in offshore Romania and with partners Petro Ventures Europe BV (20 percent) and Gas Plus International BV (15 percent).

Sterling Resources Announces Farm Out Agreement of UK License P1792
Press Release: Sterling Resources Ltd. –
CALGARY , Nov. 29, 2012 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (SLG.V) ("Sterling" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the signing of an agreement with Shell U.K. Limited ("Shell") to farm out a 40 percent participating interest in UK License P1792 covering Blocks 21/30f and 22/26c in the Central North Sea containing the Beverley prospect and the Belinda and Evelyn discoveries. Sterling was awarded these blocks in the UK 26th Offshore Licensing Round. Under the agreement, Shell will cover Sterling's 20 percent remaining participating interest share of 3D seismic costs across the two blocks and Sterling's share of the costs of an exploration well on the Beverley prospect. Sterling will continue as Operator for the exploration well. Subject to the approval of the Department of Energy and Climate Change, the joint venture interests will be Sterling Resources (UK) Ltd. 20 percent, Shell U.K. Limited 40 percent, and Valiant Petroleum Plc 40 percent.
"The Beverley prospect is associated with possibly the last undrilled salt diapir in the Central North Sea and we believe it has significant potential given the drilling results of other analogous salt diapir structures in the Gannet area. Success could add to the existing Evelyn and Belinda discoveries to create a possible producing hub. The farm out agreement with Shell brings in a partner with regional knowledge while providing Sterling with a carry for the costs of the imminent exploration activities on the Beverley prospect," said David Findlater, Sterling's Vice President UK Exploration .

Sterling Resources Announces Drilling Results of the Ioana-1 Well and Confirms Active Gas System, Romanian Black Sea

CALGARY , Nov. 7, 2012 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (SLG.V) ("Sterling" or "the Company") announces the results of the exploration well on the Ioana prospect in Block 15 Midia in the Romanian Black Sea. The well was drilled to a total depth of 1,950 metres measured depth ("MD"), 1,513 metres true vertical depth subsea ("TVDSS"). Gas shows from drilling mud gas measurements were experienced from a depth of 500 MD down to total depth of 1,950 metres MD.
The primary objective identified by 2D seismic was encountered as prognosed with gas shows from drilling mud gas measurements over a 70 metre interval between 1,186-1,422 metres TVDSS. Analysis of the open-hole logs across this interval indicate that the formation comprises of thin-bedded sands within lower permeability siltstone and gas saturations similar to the siltstones present within the gas leg of the Doina and Ana fields.
Shallower sands of 55 metres thickness between 831-910 metres TVDSS with gas shows from drilling mud gas measurements were identified prior to setting intermediate casing. Only gamma ray and resistivity data from Logging-While-Drilling ("LWD") tools are available across this shallow zone, but cased-hole logs have been run to further evaluate these intervals and log interpretation of the shallower sandstone should be completed over the next few weeks.
"We are encouraged by the gas saturations in the primary objective, thereby proving up potential trap and gas sourcing to the structure," stated Patrick Whitley , Sterling's Vice President, International Exploration. "However, the reservoir development is poorer than expected in this up dip area of the prospect and will require further work with seismic and drilling to appraise the large Ioana structure further to the east," Mr. Whitley added.
The Ioana-1 well is situated on the western edge of a very large areal structure of some 150 square kilometres. The well location was selected at the deepest water depth location possible in which the only available jack-up drilling unit, the Grup Servicii Petroliere SA rig "GSP Jupiter", could safely operate. The Ioana-1 location was defined by 2D seismic data, which has proved successful for the Ana and Doina discovery and appraisal wells, but the complexity of the formations encountered in the Ioana-1 well now suggest that 3D seismic might be needed for reservoir thickness predictions and further drilling on this structure.
"We gave strong assurance to the Romanian government early this year, having received their approvals, to resume our long-awaited exploration of the Midia Block by drilling the Ioana-1 well as soon as possible in 2012," stated Mike Azancot, Sterling's President and CEO. "While the results from this first well on the prospect have not confirmed commercial resources, the extensive gas shows confirm the presence of an active gas system within the Ioana prospect. We will now be assessing the potential follow on program for the Ioana prospect for next year, which might commence with the acquisition of a 3D seismic survey over Ioana and other Midia Block prospects. Subject to contracting a drilling vessel rated to operate in deeper water (circa 100 metres), we would plan to drill in the most promising part of the Ioana prospect to the south east of the Ioana-1 well, where stronger seismic amplitudes and direct hydrocarbon indicators suggest a better quality gas-bearing reservoir (see Figures 1 and 2). In addition, we plan to drill exploration wells on one or more other prospects in the Midia Block. All of the above work will be subject to financing, regulatory and partner approvals," Mr. Azancot added.
The drilling of the Ioana-1 well is now complete and abandonment operations are being conducted. Following these operations the rig will be moved to the second exploration well location, Eugenia-1, some 70 kilometres to the north. This well will be the first to be drilled in the oil prone Pelican Block and is estimated to take approximately 30 days to complete.

Sterling Resources Announces Commencement of Operations at Ioana-1

CALGARY , Oct. 5, 2012 /CNW/ - Sterling Resources Ltd. (SLG.V) ("Sterling" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that drilling operations have commenced at the Ioana gas prospect in Block 15 Midia in the Romanian Black Sea utilizing the Grup Servicii Petroliere SA ("GSP") cantilever-type jack-up drilling rig "GSP Jupiter". The Ioana-1 well, which is located in a water depth of 91 metres, is targeting the Mid Pontian sandstone formation to a total well depth of 1,600 metres and is expected to take up to 30 days to complete.

Following the drilling of Ioana-1, the rig will be remobilized approximately 70 km to the north for the drilling of the Eugenia-1 well in oil prone Block 13 Pelican, in 55 metres water depth to an anticipated total depth of 2,300 metres. This well has three separate objectives. The shallower Oligocene target is a new play in the area. The other two targets are in the Eocene and Upper Cretaceous. OMV Petrom's nearby Lebada field complex is believed to be producing from reservoirs in both the Eocene and Upper Cretaceous intervals. The estimated drilling time for this well is also 30 days.

"We are excited to resume our drilling program in the Romanian Black Sea with the arrival of the GSP Jupiter rig at the Ioana-1 drill site. Success at Ioana could greatly enhance the potential for a gas hub in the Midia block that already includes the Ana and Doina fields," stated Mark Beacom , Sterling's Vice President and General Manager for Romania . "The second well, Eugenia-1, will be the first to be drilled in the highly prospective, oil prone Pelican block which has existing hydrocarbon discoveries to the west and east."
