Energy Finders Inc, reports Evaluation of Shallow Oil Zones in North Lula Area, Edwards County, Texas
March 18 2009 - 6:30AM
PR Newswire (US)
DALLAS, TX, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- (OTC-EGYF.PK) The
company announces after receiving preliminary report from Wilford
Lee Stepp, Consulting Petroleum Geologist, based in Texas, USA
recommends the following. A proposed location for a Paluxy zone
test is recommended with a depth of 750 feet, 2200 feet from West
Line, 1320 feet from South Line, Sec. 87 HE & WT Block E, two
and half miles north of Lula. Scales 1600 feet SE of MegaWest #1
Mitchell dry hole. The recommendations include setting casing at
650 feet, drilling into the Paluxy zone expected at 720 feet, with
about 12 feet of Oil zone. Swabbing the well should test
productivity. Another zone in the middle of Glen Rose at 850 feet
depth which has 10 feet of high resistivity on the logs of older
wells and the MegaWest # 1 Mitchell, which may be tested, depending
on the testing of the Paluxy zone. The object of testing is to
determine if a pilot steam flood system can be justified, leading
to further developments. To evaluate the Trinity Sands at 990 feet
to 1100 feet, another drill hole near the above proposed location,
should be drilled at 960 feet, cased and penetrating the separate
Trinity Sands, swab tested, looking for Oil in those sands and a
possible steam flood prospect. Historic Information on Trinity
Sands: Since 1969, companies such as Shell, Getty, Murphy Oil,
Dorchester and Carmel Energy have drilled and cored wells to
quantify the heavy oil resource and have tested steam recovery in
this project area. The well data encouraged further drilling and
testing, but the then existing economic conditions did not support
commercial development. There are also references to primary oil
production from one of the wells. In 1986 Meteor Developments Inc.
undertook a technical study of the Rocksprings area and prepared a
commercial development plan based on steam flood technology.
Meteor's plan included the construction of an 80,000 barrels of oil
per day oil treating facility. However, the development timing
conflicted with the downturn in oil prices in the mid and late
1980's. Two formations in this area are oil bearing - the Paluxy
Lime (average depth of 500 ft.) and the Trinity Sands (average
depth of 1,000 ft.). The majority of the data for the Trinity Sand
formation comes from wells drilled en route to the deeper gas
formations. Electrolog and core analyses demonstrate oil in the
Trinity Sand formation throughout the area, but no commercial
production has been established to date. Aggregate sand sections
vary from 40 to 140 feet in thickness. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
