Petrotech Oil and Gas Looking Good for Oil Production on Brown
29-1, the First of 18 Wells on the Nowata Lease: Update
BEDFORD, TX--(Marketwired - Jan 31, 2014) - PetroTech Oil and
Gas Inc. (OTC Pink: PTOG) (the "Company" or Petrotech") Update:
Petrotech Oil and Gas has spent the last month preparing the
lease building a new tank battery, installing a new disposal pump,
reworking four of the existing gas wells and building the first of
18 new well sites. PTOG began drilling yesterday evening setting
surface pipe and rigging to drill the Brown 29-1. We have drilled
700' so far this morning just now entering the Bartlesville oil
zone. We expect to complete the drill, log and review results over
the weekend.
"Everything is on track and moving on schedule, we have drilled
down 750' and already are logging the mud coming up with oil," said
Eddie Schilb president of Petrotech Oil and Gas. "Three of the gas
wells are in production, and the fourth will be on line this week,
and we should be complete by the end of the weekend, with a better
than expected report.

About Production in Nowata:
Production rates in this area range from 15 to 50 barrels of oil
per day (BOPD) per well with typical results averaging between 5
and 10 BOPD. Initial flow rates can be higher for a short duration
before settling into this range with the quality of crude being
excellent (33° to 42° API oil). Natural gas is the fallback
position in this area due to shallow Excello shale that blankets
the area as do several methane gas bearing coal seams. As such,
natural gas is almost always produced in a well in this area with
production rates ranging from 5,000 to 200,000 cubic feet of gas
per day (5 to 200 MCFD).
Since most of this gas is produced from coal seams, initial
production rates are actually lower and increase over the first few
months because coal seams must "dewater," where water in place in
the coal seam is brought to the surface freeing up the gas to begin
coming to surface through the well bore. As a result, a typical
scenario would be for a well to produce from a coal seam and after
dewatering for about a month to start giving up -its natural gas.
The flow rate of between 950 to 1050 BTU gas will usually start
around 5 MCFD and increases as the water comes off with most wells
settling in around 30-50 MCFD. In PTOG's project area, there is an
estimated 98% completion rate and 100% discovery of gas, making it
one of the lowest risk exploration areas in the country.
Located in Nowata County, Oklahoma, this project is situated on
the Northeastern edge of the Northeast Oklahoma Shelf, which has
proven to be prolific in coal bed seams for both methane gas and
oil since it was developed beginning in the early 1990's. The
dewatering of the existing gas wells will be injected back into the
Bartlesville production zone to help facilitate the oil
production.
About The Nowata Lease: The key to success in this area of
Oklahoma is optimizing production from the many hydrocarbon-bearing
zones, which includes the coal seams. With most wells encountering
about a dozen zones that have known production in this area, the
drilling risk is extremely low. Having this serendipity also
extends the production life of wells from 10-12 years to 15-20
years.
Production rates in this area range from 2 to 50 barrels of oil
per day (BOPD) per well with typical results averaging between 5
and 10 BOPD. Initial flow rates can be higher for a short duration

excellent (33° to 42° API oil). Natural gas is the fallback

Located in Nowata County, Oklahoma, this project is situated on
the Northeastern edge of the Northeast Oklahoma Shelf, which has
proven to be prolific in coal bed methane gas since it was
developed beginning in the early 1990's. PETROTECH OIL AND
GAS, INC. 's properties are surrounded by leases operated by some
of the major players in the field such as Newfield Exploration, Mid-Continent,
Inc., Energy Quest Resources and Endeavor
Energy. In fact, PETROTECH OIL AND GAS, INC. Have minority
interests in some wells with Newfield Exploration and Endeavor.
This area of northeastern Oklahoma has an extensive drilling
history extending back to the early 1900's.
About PetroTech:
PetroTech Oil and Gas, Inc.
uses multiple patent technologies for Enhanced Oil Recovery and in
some cases will use their new pumping system co developed by
PetroTech. We will use this patented technology with other proven
technologies currently used in the industry to drill, complete
equip new drill wells and older wells with secondary production
opportunities. Throughout the United States there are primary
depleted oil reservoirs representing billions of barrels of oil
that lend themselves to the use and exploitation of Enhanced Oil
Recovery and PetroTech Oil and Gas, Inc.'s proven patented
technology. Without EOR technology, these reservoirs will produce
only about 20% of their Original Oil in Place. Gas injection EOR is
a proven method that has been in use over the last 50 years in the
oil fields of West Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Michigan, Wyoming and
Oklahoma. Starting in the late 1990's we started researching
various EOR methods and sources of gases and mixtures of gases to
find an alternative gas to pure CO2 for EOR. In doing so, we found
that a N2-CO2 mixture was 2-3 times more efficient than CO2 in the
recovery of stranded oil. Recently we have been introduced to a
patented exhaust unit that was more efficient than regular CO2. A
new prototype of that equipment was then built for injection
purposes; and is in the process of being further developed for
commercial use.
We have analyzed the different
types of oil producing reservoirs in most of the major geological
basins in the United States and have determined that the use of our
process and method will enhance the recovery of stranded oil
reserves in these areas that otherwise may never be produced. The
pinnacle reefs, other reefs in Texas make excellent reservoirs for
EOR because they are compact, have consistent reservoir properties,
thick pay columns, and are overlain by an impermeable cap seal.
However other formations have responded favorably as well. These
reservoirs represent over 300 million barrels of recoverable
stranded oil using our patented method and technology. CO2 floods
have been successful on the reefs in the US with rates as high as
1000 BOPD. Our process will have a major impact on the recovery of
stranded oil in U.S. basins. This statement is based on the fact
that we have an unlimited source of gas and we do not need an
expensive infrastructure to transport the gas, plus the fact that
it is proven that a mixture of CO2 and N2 is more efficient than
CO2 in some trials.
The cost and recovery of a
project will be dependent on size of structure and depth; the cost
will range depending on type of formation and type of treatment
design. Hopefully, per project we will capture an additional 20% to
40% of oil in place. Attempting to do this in a period of 5 years
as opposed to the original 20% of oil that has already been
produced; which may have taken ten to twenty years. Each successful
project is estimated to have a six to twelve month payout.
