Drilling of Second well Commences on Badger Property
|
| | Pennant Energy Inc. (the "Company") (TSX Venture Exchange -- PEN") is pleased to announce that pursuant to our press release of January 25, drilling operations at the offset location to our successful Badger 100/02-17-016-18W4/0 well, 04-17-016-18W4/0 was initiated on February 2, 2010. Evaluation of well logging and potential testing operations will be announced as the information is made available by the operator. The Company holds an undivided 25% working interest in the P&NG rights below the base of the Belly River in the total section.
The Badger 100/02-17 well has been producing oil, gas and natural gas liquids (NGL's) since January, 2009. The initial production rates from the well were over 1.1 million cubic feet of natural gas per day (Mmcf/day) and 30 barrels of oil per day (bopd). It has produced approximately 220 million cubic feet (Mmcf) of natural gas and 6.8 thousands of barrels (Mbbls) of oil to date and is currently producing approximately 500 Mcf/day of natural gas and 15 bopd. Should the offset, Badger 04-17 location encounter a similar and separate anomaly to that of the 02-17 well, it is anticipated to produce in a similar manner.
The Company currently holds a 25% interest in a total of 2 sections of land with an option to participate in future exploration and development activities within an area of mutual interest in the Badger area.

This News Release may contain forward-looking statements based on assumptions and judgments of management regarding future events or results that may prove to be inaccurate as a result of exploration and other risk factors beyond its control, and actual results may differ materially from the expected results.
BOEs may be misleading, particularily when used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6Mcf: 1 bbl is based on energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not present a value equivalency at the wellhead.
The TSX Venture Exchange has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release. |
