SURE ENERGY INC. ANNOUNCES SECOND REDWATER WELL VIKING OIL TEST RESULTS
CALGARY, Oct. 27 /CNW/ - Sure Energy Inc. (SHR, TSX) ("Sure Energy" or "the Company") is pleased to report the production test results of its latest Redwater North horizontal well. The Viking formation was tested for three days and flowed a total of 818 barrels of light oil. Over the last 24 hours of flow production averaged 202 barrels of clean oil and 82 mcf of solution gas. Rates were restricted through a 3/8 inch choke with drawdown estimated at 13 percent.
The well is 100% owned by the Company and will qualify for the Alberta Government's Horizontal Oil New Well Royalty Rate of 5% for 24 months, to a maximum of 60,000 barrels.
The well was drilled from the same surface location as Sure Energy's successful Viking oil well announced on August 18th, 2010. The Company anticipates that both wells will come on production in early November when the construction of surface facilities and pipelines to handle the associated solution gas is complete.
The Company owns 7 3/4 sections of 100% working interest lands in the Redwater North Viking play. These lands have ERCB approved holdings allowing up to 4 wells per quarter section.
The development of Redwater North complements Sure Energy's development and production at Redwater South. The Company also completed the tie in of its 1-21-56-20W4M South Redwater well on October 25th and the well is now on production.
In total, Sure Energy has 7,495 acres of net undeveloped land on the Redwater Viking oil trend.
Sure Energy Inc. is a publicly traded oil and gas exploration and development company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "SHR".
