Zion Oil and Gas Inc (QX) (ZNOG)

IMHO, we are actively in PHASE 2 below, getting ready to begin PHASE 3 below. During the January 14 Operational Update, the COO gave a 2-week timeframe for PHASE 1 and PHASE 2 and reiterated that during the ASM.

It's been 3 weeks since the ASM when we were told we were starting drilling operations. We are probably getting the Well prepared for the horizontal drilling PHASE 3 below. PHASE 2 and PHASE 3 are the 2000 meters of drilling spoke of during the January 14 Operational Update.

It sure would be better if Zion would just provide an operational update rather than have to go through this exercise.

Whoever is watching the site, keep an eye out for flaring.

From the COO during the June 6th ASM. Blue Notes are mine.
What are we doing right now? We're rigging up over in MJ02, getting ready to open the well this week. There is a temporary plug and abandonment that we left off there in 2022, so we're going to clean that out. We've raised the substructure. Let's talk about what we're getting ready to do.
[PHASE 1 - Note: This is MJ02 Preparation]

So the remaining operations that we have for this year are pretty much commencing this week. We're going to plug and abandon MJ02 below the 2,700-meter mark.

We're going to run a whipstock. What is a whipstock? A whipstock is a plug that also acts as a wedge. It'll force the drill bit out the side of the casing.

So that is what we're going to use to open up a window that's going to allow for the deviated vertical directional drilling to start off, and that'll take us a couple of weeks to get all of that done. I do have the whipstock in country, which is good news.

So as soon as those directional tools arrive from the boat, we'll be able to get started on the directional side.

From there, we have just under 1,000 meters of 8 1/2-inch open hole. It's deviated, but primarily vertical drilling, which is going to get us down to the target zone depth. We'll have a casing and cementing operation once that's completed.
[PHASE 2 - Note: This is where the whipstock pushes the drill bit out the side of the MJ02 previously placed casing. This is a curved drilling effort starting at the original MJ02 vertical casing and ends where the horizontal drilling will begin.]

This will be followed by a little over 900 meters of horizontal drilling through the potential production zone, and that's with a six-inch open hole. We'll do a casing, and then part of the lower end completion is what's going to allow us to do the stimulation and flowback testing.
[PHASE 3 - Note: This is the horizontal drilling through the production zones.]

So all of that, the lower completion section is designed to minimize the equipment footprint, personnel, and cost, and still have a highly successful stimulation program. But we will cement the bottom section. We will tieback casing to surface. Probably will not cement the tieback casing in at this time. In case we need to make changes, we will be able to pull that casing out of the hole.
[PHASE 4 - Note: This is the 10 stages that need to be stimulated and flowback tested spoken about in the January 14 Operational Update. Each stage takes 24 to 36 hours, or at least 10 days of pure stimulation and flowback testing.]

So that's the drilling operation in a nutshell.

Once we're through the drilling and we have the lower section in place, then we'll begin a multi-stage stimulation and flowback program, which will take us probably through the end of the year.

Right now, everything is contracted, with the exception of the flowback and stimulation, and it's contract-- I've got everything in place. What we're waiting on is to lock in equipment dates. As soon as that gets locked in, then I'm subject to cancellation clauses, and that's the only reason why I haven't given them firm hard dates yet.

But we're looking late this summer that we should get that in. So as soon as we start the drilling operation, I will finalize the stimulation flowback and well testing contracts and get those put into place, and we're set through the completion of this operation. That's that.

You may be closer.

Re-watched ASM Operations portion. Mr. Ness stated the should be ready to start drilling the horizontal portion of the well after installation of the whipstock (pretty much a wedge to redirect drill out of wellbore) in 2 weeks from ASM.

It's been 3 weeks since the ASM. We did have to cement the deviation to stabilze. We could be horizontal drilling this week or next. If true, then they should be flaring off gases at the site if we are successful.

Figure 3 to 4 weeks from now.

sorry NOT my Opinion....i believe we hear something quickly.....1 to 3 weeks from now....will see

Remember in Jan- Mar, they did all the certification of the rig and set up over MJ 02 and then evacuated the site due to hostilities.

They got back on site in May/June and then held the ASM. It was after that they got back on-site to prep MJ02 for drilling. Mid-June (at best) restarted the clock.

We're still 1 to 2 months out as per the COO's statement during the January 14 update.

This is better then his statement made during the ASM, where he stated closer to late fall to the end of year

TtHIS ALMOST 6 MONTHS AGO.....hMMMMM.....imho.....THEY hit "all" TARGETS !!!!! that's "oil"......imho news is "eminent" !!!!!!!!!!! many...many dollars ARE coming ...............SHARE PRICE THAT IS

The first half, pretty much vertical, then straight horizontal followed by a multi-stage stimulation operation. So far, we've done only one stage at a time. ... This is going to be multi-stage up to 10 stages all in the same zone. So, we're going to try and exploit as much of the uh potential reservoir as possible. Um doing one stage right after another. Each stage will take between 24 and 36 hours.

So, it'll be like 10 straight days of non-stop stimulation followed by a flowback. So, a lot of stuff that Israel has never seen before once again [Here we go] is coming in. And we're excited. I mean, this is a good opportunity for us to really exploit the potential pay zone area for an extended period, you know, an extended distance as opposed to just a single uh open hole or case hole for that matter, 4 and a half inches, for example, on MJ2 and MJ1. Uh we're going to have we're going to have 900 meters of drilled hole through what we see, what the geologists see as the pay zone. So, good opportunity that if it's in one pocket and not in another, we're not going to miss it by just a short distance. You know, we're hoping to bisect the entire thing and looking forward to seeing what's truly there.

From the January 14, 2026 Update:

This is a full drilling operation, uh, similar to what we've done in the past. We have just about 2,000 meters of drilling to do.

There is a ton of information in the January 14 Update.

2000 meters total.
1100 meters vertical assuming this includes the bend for horizontal, or a vertical drilling depth of 3610 feet.
900 meters or 2953 feet of horizontal through what geologists believe is the pay zone.

We've got A COUPLE MONTHS of drilling and casing . We're going to drill in two sections. We'll have an 8-inch open hole section followed by a 6-inch open hole section. 8 in will be cased with seven-inch casing and 4-and-1/2-inch completion string. and then we'll be ready to move into the well testing phase. So, a lot of activities.

I am assuming the 8-inch section is the vertical section while the 6-inch section is the horizontal. A couple months of drilling and casing tells me we are still a good amount of time out from hearing much of anything with respect to drilling results. If drilling has begun as of last week, then we are looking at August when drilling and casing may be completed. Which implies we still have at least a full month of downward pressure on the stock unless we hear something positive from Zion Oil and Gas.

Coach's Corner pretty much explains it as it is.

This is where faith really supports us through these down pressure times. Without any positive news from Zion in the form of an Operational Update, we will see lower prices.

It would be excellent if Zion could release information on where we currently are with respect to what was forecasted in the January 14 Update.

Tisdal I noticed on the video at ASH meeting when Rob was asked the question how much
oil was down there, watching the room no heads were hanging no somber looks just smiles and giggles almost high fives and Robs responded enough to make us all happy!

I do not think anyone has been chased away.

This is a risky investment.

Investors are waiting to hear that horizontal has begun. That's when speculators will know it's time to take a position. Until then its low volume and charter's taking their positions for swings.

The longer it takes, the more down pressure we'll see.

Come on Zion, where are we?
Are we drilling sideways yet?

When asked "How much oil was down there?" The CEO said, " We will all be happy!"

Now we wait to see how happy.

We know someone has eyes on the site. If they start burning 🔥 off gases the stock will see a rise as we near the discovery.

I am definitely watching 👀 them

Or they woke up. Affinity scams are sneaky and pernicious, taking advantage of the religiously gullible in this case.
many have been chased away.

Its really a shame, many have been chased away.

Watch the WARRANTS due end of month.

Well a good day. Up no news.

I decided I will start an update on a regular basis of known facts, zion news, or markets concerns that directly effect ZNOG.

Did you know we changed exchanges in February?

ZNOG trades on the OTCQX Best Market — the top tier of the OTC markets — having upgraded from the OTCQB venture tier on February 10, 2026.

ZNOG has years of drilling "performances" 😆 🤣
Zion has re-entered the well

Thanks very helpful

LoL.....keep up your great work......love the buying op before the HUGE RUN to many...many dollars..................

Zion has re-entered the well and is currently in the process of drilling out the temporary plug. Following this step, the team will condition the wellbore downhole and proceed with the planned horizontal sidetrack drilling.

1 month or 6 months....where else are you going to make 5,000% plus on your money in that TIME ???? NO WHERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can wait for the RUN to many...many dollars per share................

Not quite sure where 4-5 months comes from. I count 12 weeks as a max, or 3 months. Maybe transitioning from one phase to the other adds time.

June (drilling) .. November (production)


Timeline for Horizontal Well Drilling

Drilling to Production
Horizontal wells generally take about 4-5 months from the start of drilling to the point of production. This timeline includes several phases:

Drilling Phase: This part can be completed in a matter of weeks, typically ranging from 2-4 weeks depending on the specific conditions and depth of the well.

Completion Phase: After drilling, the well undergoes completion, which can take an additional 1-3 weeks. This involves installing casing and preparing the well for production.

Fracturing Phase: If hydraulic fracturing is required, this can take 3-14 days.

Flowback & Testing: Following fracturing, the well will undergo flowback and testing for about 1-3 weeks before it enters production.
--------------------------------

Factors Affecting Timeline
Several factors can influence the overall timeline for drilling and production:

Equipment Availability: Delays can occur if there are shortages of drilling crews or equipment.

Site Conditions: Geological and environmental conditions can impact drilling speed and efficiency.

Regulatory Approvals: Necessary permits and approvals can also add time to the process.
------------------------------

Summary Table

Phase Duration

Drilling 2-4 weeks
Completion 1-3 weeks
Fracturing 3-14 days
Flowback & Testing 1-3 weeks

Total to Production 4-5 months

Drilling may start this week

Well, at least we're not down 😊

Market closed till Monday.

Zion oil - Friday - up?

JRyan

Just want to say thank you for honest and accurate information
My intuitive says "this is it!" Not just Israel, but nations

Today I keep having a strong calling to focus on the following:

But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Then Jesus said to them, “Children, have you any food?”

They answered Him, “No.”

And He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.

Now we're casting our net to the right of MJ02 as we've not been successful in our previous attempts. All depictions show a horizontal drilled from left to right.

It's a big net cast on faith. I have a strong impression that like that net with fish, we will have to work hard due to the multitude of oil and gas we catch within our horizontal net.

As with the fish of the sea, all the reserves of the Earth are under His command.

Prophecy starts at Time stamp 5:10 at Time stamp 5:47 it clearly states to the right

once that baby starts spitting oil, we start clicking DOLLARS....I CAN wait.......

Analysis of the June 10 update, getting real....we will be drilling within days. War news was good going into the weekend. Guess I need to update my crude price in the tracker to $60. Anyway from here the drill bit does the talking.

Analysis

I think the ASM hype played out. Used to be the price would drop after, and it did. This time that drill bit is on an entirely different mission.

Thank you! Go $ZNOG

I get it. Didn’t think that was you. Just letting people know. Go ZNOG. 

I agree, however flippers use charts all the time to flip and that's why they get left out and chasing on news!

That's not me, I'm long on ZNOG and accumulating!

GLTA $VMST Shareholders,

BP

Going to be interesting to see how many ZNWAS, ZNWAU .25 warrants have been exercised. Also interested to see if they and other warrants have been extended past June 30 expiration date.

They've been "in the money" for a long while, and that's a better than 100% return on investment. Profit taking could be where some of the selling is coming from.

The 1st quarter 10Q will tell us a lot.

These sites use algorithms that look at price movement, volume, and a handful of technical indicators. They don’t read news, they don’t understand the significance of Zion starting the horizontal sidetrack, and they don’t analyze the actual story. It’s basically an AI analysis that doesn’t take real world news and actions into account. 

Amen! Come Lord Jesus! Go $ZNOG https://stockinvest.us/stock/ZNOG

😆 🤣 😂. That video is pathetically cringe.

The only trading that I’ll be doing is the same trade I’ve been exclusively trading since I learned about Zion and it’s mission. Trading money for shares in this noble venture. 

I think today is what we'll see from here on out. Rising on low volume. Not many sellers out there.

IMHO, the MMs are looking for inventory. They are going to drop it to kick off sell orders. They will run it up to kick off sell orders.

In the end, I think the demand compared to limited supply will drive the price up. Be careful to not lose your position by trying to trade these swings. If you are taking profit fine, but know it could have been more.

It's gonna get more volatile as the MMs look for inventory. The spread on the bid and ask will increase as well.

Just hang on!

NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

JRyan,

Yes, the JB1 re-naming was a classy move full of respect. Really happy to drill using the JB1, especially at this phase where for the first time in Israel's history, the JB1 will be drilling horizontally into pay zones.

I posted the Prophetic word for Zion Oil and Gas because I noticed some being disgruntled in the market's reaction to the news. Prophecy was given to us to exhort and encourage us. Felt the need for others to remember why we are here, and to remain encouraged that we are right one track.

You are correct, the market had already priced in the press release based on the status provide during the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Have to admit though, I was a tad bit disappointed .

This is all coming soon now. Am really excited for what is about to happen here. I am preparing for the Harvest He is calling us to. He is preparing us to receive so that we can finance His revival resulting in the final move of the Holy Spirit. I am so happy to be allowed to participate in His plans.

There are many vehicles that can be used to efficiently assist in the financing. There are many organizations preparing for this move because they have been prophetically put on notice. They know that funds are coming soon. They are assembling their teams and setting up home base platforms from which they will be launching operations in support of this final move.

Great Times are Coming, and we have been chosen to participate. How awesome!!💯

NO ONE CAN STAND IN THE WAY OF HIS PLANS NOW!

Sit back and watch Him work right before our very eyes!


NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

We knew it was coming, I do like the JB1 name, nice touch. The overall markets are crap, distractions abound....it does not surprise me. I am so busy and distracted with other things I can only look at the end of the day.

No worries, in His time.

Prophetic word for Zion Oil and Gas

A lot has already come to pass. This was given a year ago. No timing was provided.

For example, the two warrants set up for two individual participants amounting to $41+ million (ZNWAS and ZNWAU). Believe this is the capital investment prophesied.

NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

1,000% HORSECHIT !!!!!!!!!!!!! DOLLARS are coming in WEEKS...........

Have to admit. I was expecting a little more excitement around the "Commencing Drilling" announcement.

The volume is mild at best. Doesn't really matter much. I'm here for the duration. Still surprised to see so little activity around this announcement.

Still thinking Monday, July 13, 2026 is when we will have some indication as to the size of the discovery.
We'll see.

A religious affinity scam, to enrich insiders.
Perhaps this will help bring you up to speed with respect to the company you invested in.

when oil starts spitting out this play will flip DOLLARS !!!!!!!!!!!!

My guess in 12 months is $35 plus....thats just me.....Gooooo ZION !!!!!!!
