I know of one eternal record, for I asked to delete mine also and all I could do is change the username. which I did. I was a shareholder of ness before I was of Zion. but it appears that both christian exploration companies came up short. How far car anyone recall when Nathan was flapping his mouth telling us things we didn't want to hear? I go back to the time Richard Rinberg was CEO, and we were waiting for the results of the well drill, and in the press release Zion put out a picture of a white Zion oil baseball cap, and a small jar of a oil like substance was next to it. that made many people think that were telling us they found oil. so the SP went of to 14 dollars(Feb 09), and then a short time later they announced they didn't find commercial quantity oil. that right there is a lawsuit that should have shut Zion down for good. they pumped it and I along with others got in at a higher price thinking it was about to hit the moon but it didn't. I lost a bunch of money. after I had started complaining about the pump, John Brown himself sent me a book about faith to my house. now we've seen multiple CEO's, and others come and go, and it always a mutual departure between parties. I have stayed in contact with David Boyce of Ness, and I had told him that the prophetic realm said that cryptocurrency is coming into the economic future. we are to see a crash of sorts, and then it may take 3-4 years to overcome, but somewhere in this will be a new digital currency that gets us closer to the mark of beast technology. I was hoping that the crypto that was announced to be the transference of the wealth would supply the funds to get ness back on the map and drill by the Dead Sea. that was always the plan, yet Zion claims the head of Joseph is the outline to the inland crude.

No, I actually tried to delete everything including myself and was told my IHUB account was eternal. You can't get rid of yourself, here.
Given that all accounts are eternal, I wonder where many of the old timers for Zion Oil have gone? Don't you?
Old timers for Zion Oil has a nice ring to it, should I pull an Ethan and start my own message board. I could make you the premiere poster in charge of the message board! All the losers from the past, up to 30,000 investors (that's sort of what 300 million in losses, $10,000 per family, 3000 people per year, amount too) could join. I think it would be a hit. Anyway, you should reconsider your posts given the eternal nature of these messages, pushing false prophecy has always been a failing of man just as we see that same failing of man play out here.
Do you remember the early 2019 MJ#1 posts (I'm counting on them having oil as it they better double darn well have oil after all they put us through) to the 2021 MJ#2 posts (I'm certain we have an 80%, or perhaps 50 to 100% chance of commercial oil) to today's (2025) posts with total acceptance of losing the bottom half of MJ#1 to a stuck drill string (darn, 8 years of wear and tear on a steel casing of a well going through multiple salt water aquifers certainly took it's toll on the casing).
Anyway, good luck, I am amazed that today many have the opportunity of a decade to get out of this stock without losing much, but alas, they won't take this opportunity and their investment will come to nothing. I think you know that, but whatever.

I guess we do remember things differently. The SEC stuff? Yeah I remember the law firm calling me to help sue, what a joke. As for the press releases, they are still out there and you know it, so research away.
One thing I will agree on, they started listening to lawyers way too much, but when one digs into who was financing the hitjob on Zion Oil, it becomes very clear what was going on. Yet, through all of that, they are still here with another 7 year exploration license. Trying times for sure, but be honest about some of the details.
The whale(s)? If not for him/them, we would have been done years ago.
I find it funny that a Christian company is doing fairly well there, and trust me that is not easy.

As I remember it, the SEC gave Zion Oil a clean bill of health after Zion Oil fired their accounting firm, got rid of two CEOs in a row, and pushed one of the board members out the back door. Of course, Zion Oil said everything was just peachy, as they always do.
I guess we both remember the facts differently With Zion Oil deleting all the updates and press release from their website concerning the early MJ#1 drilling, who is to say? With the past history of MJ#1 gone, you can't even challenge MJ#1 well re-completion (as in it was never a well, and never complete in the first place).
I'm surprised my login still works, is an IHUB account eternal? I was thinking we have lost so many posters here over the years, I thought for sure my account would have been blown away long ago.

A tell of two wells.
According to recent updates from Zion Oil & Gas, the MJ-1 well (Megiddo-Jezreel 1) in Israel has shown evidence of an active petroleum system, indicating the presence of oil, and is currently undergoing recompletion operations to attempt to extract flow from the identified zones, with testing and completion operations expected to be finalized in Q2 2025; the company is utilizing new stimulation techniques to overcome previous challenges encountered in the well.
Key points about the MJ-1 test results:
Active petroleum system confirmed:
Zion Oil & Gas has stated that the MJ-1 well has demonstrated the existence of an active petroleum system, meaning oil has been encountered and migrated into a trap.
Recompletion efforts underway:
Due to initial challenges, Zion is currently re-entering the MJ-1 well to try and extract flow from the identified zones using updated stimulation techniques.
Focus on specific zones:
The company is planning to isolate and test specific zones within the well using a permanent plug to target the most promising areas.
Recent operational updates:
As of February 2025, Zion has announced the resumption of operations on the MJ-1 well, with the rig crew mobilized and maintenance work underway.
According to recent updates from Zion Oil & Gas, the results of the MJ-2 (Megiddo-Jezreel #2) well indicated encouraging hydrocarbon shows, but after further testing, it was determined that the well currently cannot produce hydrocarbons in commercially viable quantities due to insufficient permeability in the primary zone of interest; therefore, the well is not considered productive at this time and a temporary plug was set to preserve the wellbore for potential future use with further technological advancements.
Key points about the MJ-2 well results:
Positive indications:
Initial logs and analysis showed promising signs of hydrocarbons in the primary zone.
Permeability issues:
Despite the hydrocarbon shows, the zone was found to have inadequate permeability, preventing commercial production.
Further analysis:
Zion is currently re-evaluating data from the MJ-1 well, drilled on the same pad site, to assess if the same zone can be productively accessed there.
Future potential:
Zion remains optimistic about the Megiddo-Jezreel license area and may attempt re-completion operations on the MJ-1 well or explore other zones in the future based on further analysis and technology advancements.

Zion Oil & Gas Announces Renewed Operations Underway for MJ-01 Well Testing & Recompletion Project
Current Unit Program Ends on February 28
DALLAS, Texas, and CAESAREA, Israel, February 18, 2025 – Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. (OTC: ZNOG) is pleased to announce a significant operational milestone as work resumes on the recompletion of the Megiddo-Jezreel 1 (MJ-01) well in Israel. This marks a crucial phase in Zion’s ongoing efforts to unlock Israel’s onshore energy potential.
Operations Update: Crews on the Ground and Progress Underway
Zion’s rig crew arrived in Israel on February 15, 2025, and has commenced critical maintenance and preparatory work. The rig, which was safely “warm stacked” in September, is undergoing necessary maintenance procedures, including fluid changes, lubrication and greasing, and mechanical, electrical, and safety audits to ensure peak functionality.
Following maintenance, the team will begin drilling out the temporary plug at approximately 1,100 meters. This phase is expected to take 2-3 weeks, paving the way for the subsequent well recompletion and testing operations. Once the plug is removed, Zion will proceed with setting a permanent plug at the deeper part of the well to isolate the targeted zones of interest for testing.

Security and Site Preparedness
Zion has maintained continuous security at the MJ-01 site, ensuring a stable and secure operational environment. Additionally, commercial air travel into Israel has steadily resumed, further supporting logistical operations.
“Our focus remains on safety, precision, and execution,” said Zion CEO Rob Dunn. “With boots on the ground and critical equipment in motion, we are committed to seeing this project through knowing God has directed our steps forward.”
Completion Timeline & Next Steps
With all necessary equipment expected to be on-site by mid-March, barring unforeseen circumstances Zion anticipates its well completion and testing operations should be nearing completion in Q2 2025. The team remains confident in its planned operations and will continue to provide updates as milestones are achieved.
