September 04 2007 - 9:00AM
PR Newswire (US)
DENVER, Sept. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Galaxy Energy Corporation
(AMEX:GAX) and its wholly owned subsidiary Dolphin Energy
Corporation have begun discussions with unrelated companies
regarding the potential sale of a portion of its leaseholds in the
Powder River Basin in Wyoming following a decision by Galaxy and
PetroHunter Energy Corporation, a related party, not to further
extend their Purchase and Sale Agreement dated December 29, 2006,
as amended. Galaxy intends to sell a portion of the Powder River
Basin assets with sufficient market value to allow Galaxy to either
fully repay or substantially repay its senior debt. Dolphin owns an
average 86% working interest in 197 oil and gas wells in the Powder
River Basin. Twenty-two wells are currently selling gas at an
average rate of about 490,000 cubic feet per day. The remaining
wells are in various stages of dewatering, shut-in waiting on
pipeline, or waiting to be completed. Amex Update In June 2007,
Galaxy submitted a plan to the American Stock Exchange (Amex), to
advise Amex of action the company has taken, or will take, that
would bring Galaxy into compliance with all of Amex's continued
listing standards. These actions included an agreement for proposed
sale of Galaxy's oil and gas assets in the Powder River Basin to
PetroHunter Energy Corporation, a related party. The agreement with
PetroHunter expired on August 31, 2007 and will not be extended.
Galaxy has communicated the new developments to the Amex and will
submit a new plan demonstrating how the company intends to regain
compliance with the exchange's continued listing requirements. No
assurances can be given that the plan will be accepted by Amex.
