Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Barron Petroleum has scheduled a Val Verde Basin test in Ozona Field in Texas’ Crockett County (RRC Dist. 7C). The #4 Sahota will be drilled to 7,700 ft on a 1,000-acre lease in Section 9, Block XX, GC&SF RR Co Survey, A-3139. According to the unapproved permit, the test will target either the Canyon Sand in Ozona Field or a wildcat zone. Ozona Field currently produces from over 1,700 wells, and producing formations include the Spraberry; Clear Fork; Canyon and Ellenburger. Barron recently completed a Val Verde Basin discovery in Val Verde County (RRC Dist. 1) at #1 Sahota Carson 20BU, which hit about 70 ft of gas-bearing pay in Strawn. According to Barron, the 13,000-acre project holds an estimated 74.2 MMboe in oil and gas reserves and has identified 67 high-graded Strawn locations on the acreage and Barron could potentially develop Canyon at 9,000 ft and Ellenburger at 16,000 ft.
