Point Loma Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PLX) (the "Corporation" or “Point Loma”) is pleased to announce the test rates of the 5-31-55-6W5 well and provide an operational update.

Highlights and Operational update

  • Point Loma has recompleted its 5-31-55-6W5 Nordegg well higher in the section and after establishing flow the final 24 hour rates averaged 160 bpd oil, 850 mcfd gas and 428 bpd water;
  • This test demonstrates the potential of the Nordegg for continued horizontal development;
  • Point Loma has drilled and cased 9-18-49-1W5 as a Sparky oil well.
  • Point Loma will drill a second well in the program at 02/1-32-55-7W5 as an Ostracod oil infill well.

The 5-31 well is currently shut in to observe pressure build up prior to placing it back on production which is anticipated later in September. Following the drilling of the two horizontal wells Point Loma will complete and flow test the wells and should place the wells on production prior to the beginning of November this year. In addition, the Company plans to begin production of the acquired well in 12-4-56-7W5 which is also part of the Ostracod A pool at Paddle River.

Point Loma will also continue to work with the midstream owner of the Paddle River facility to re-activate additional production in the area which should occur in step fashion through the fall of 2017.

“Point Loma is pleased to initiate operations in our core areas that should not only increase our producing volumes but will improve our oil and liquids producing volumes and add to our revenues and netbacks.” said Terry Meek, President and CEO of Point Loma. “These steps should lead to additional drilling opportunities within our key producing areas.”

A Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including without limitation, statements pertaining to Point Loma’s expectations as to production and future potential production increases, as well as increases in cash flow and the timing thereof; future gas processing rates; Point Loma’s expectations as to future prices of oil and natural gas; the focus of Point Loma’s management team and go-forward strategy.

The use of any of the words “will”, “expects”, “believe”, “plans”, “potential” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements or information. Although Point Loma believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking statements and information are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements and information because Point Loma cannot give assurance that they will prove to be correct.

Since forward-looking statements and information address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, the risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general such as operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve and resource estimates; the inability of Point Loma to bring additional production on stream or in the anticipated quantities disclosed herein; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to reserves, resources, production, costs and expenses; health, safety and environmental risks; commodity price and exchange rate fluctuations; marketing and transportation; loss of markets; environmental risks; competition; incorrect assessment of the value of acquisitions; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions; ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources; changes in legislation, including but not limited to tax laws, royalties and environmental regulations, actual production from the acquired assets may be greater or less than estimates. Management has included the above summary of assumptions and risks related to forward-looking information provided in this press release in order to provide security holders with a more complete perspective on Point Loma’s future operations and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

The forward-looking statements and information contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and Point Loma does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws.

Oil and Gas Information

“BOEs” may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent (6 Mcf: 1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. As the value ratio between natural gas and crude oil based on the current prices of natural gas and crude oil is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

References in this press release to production test rates, initial test production rates, and other short-term production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery. Additionally, such rates may also include recovered "load oil" fluids used in well completion stimulation. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for Point Loma. A pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation has not been carried out in respect of all wells. Accordingly, the Corporation cautions that the test results should be considered to be preliminary.
