Update on new Seismic

Hernandarias Block, Chaco Region, Paraguay

 

On 13 July it was announced that seismic data acquisition had been completed on time and on budget on the Hernandarias Block and that final analysis of the results of processing would be announced approximately two months thereafter.

 

Whilst final processing by President's independent contractor and its analysis is still ongoing, the seismic is of excellent quality and it is already clear from the data that several drillable Paleozoic prospects, in line with the Company's pre-acquisition expectations, exist at 2,500-3,000m depth being some 1,000m shallower depth than the Lapacho and Jacaranda wells drilled last year.

 

In the light of the importance of such results, management is carrying out careful analysis and peer review before announcing the full results together with Prospective Resource estimates. An announcement will be made forthwith after President and its partner in the Block, Hidrocarburos Chaco, first brief the relevant Regulatory Authority and Ministries in Paraguay, due to take place in October this year.

 

Miles Biggins, Bsc Joint Honours University College London, with 25 years of experience in the oil and gas sector, is a Petroleum Engineer and member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers who meets the criteria of qualified persons under the AIM guidance note for mining and oil and gas companies, has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this announcement.
