Point Loma Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PLX) (the
"
Corporation" or “
Point Loma”)
which has captured over 160,000 net acres across the multi-zone
Mannville, Nordegg and Banff fairways of west central Alberta is
pleased to announce recent land acquisitions and an update of core
area activities.
Paddle River Area, Townships 55
and 56 Range 7W5: Well transfers completed, production to
commence and further consolidation of area lands
Further to the recently announced acquisition of
horizontal well bores on section 4-56-7W5, the transfer of the two
wells has been approved and Point Loma anticipates that production
will begin in mid-November for the 12-4-56-7W5 Ostracod well. This
well is in an updip position in the pool and has never been on
production.
In addition, the Corporation has entered into
agreements to consolidate the area land positions of Point Loma to
80 percent working interest in the Paddle River Ostracod pool. The
addition of these lands adds to the existing development inventory
in Point Loma’s core production area.
Leaman Area, Townships 56 and
57 Ranges 8-10W5: Area plans progress
In consultation with the facility operator,
Point Loma is working to coordinate the reactivation of
approximately 1.5 mmcfd (net) previously producing gas volumes and
approximately 80 bpd additional associated ngl’s through the deep
cut facility. In addition, Point Loma has identified four
recompletion candidates that should add to area production and has
the potential to increase future horizontal drilling inventory in
the area.
Thorsby Area, Township 49 Range
1W5: Horizontal completion and test on newly drilled
Mannville play targeting Sparky oil and pipeline
construction
Point Loma has recently completed the previously
drilled Sparky well. The confidential well is currently on an
extended flow test. Once the test is completed, it is anticipated
that the Sparky well will be pipeline connected on the same surface
lease as the previously drilled and tested Glauconitic well on
section 18-49-1W5. The pipeline to connect to an area operator’s
facility as a combined emulsion line has finished construction and
production from these wells are expected to establish Point Loma in
the area. These wells will potentially provide a base for future
development of an additional four to six horizontal drilling
opportunities on existing lands. Production is anticipated to
commence in mid-November 2017.
West Cove Area, Township 55,
Range 6W5: Targeting oil in the Nordegg and Banff
plays
The 5-31-55-6W5 well was placed on production
October 1, 2017 and initial restricted production continues to
stabilize. The result confirms potential in the Nordegg zone for
future development.
Point Loma is permitting a 3D seismic program to
further delineate the pool and assist in delineating a potential
Banff oil target underlying the Nordegg discovery.
Thornbury Area, Twp 79-81, Rges
13-15W4: Development plan to tie-in and reactivate existing
wells in first quarter 2018 approved
The development plan filed by the Corporation to
undertake pipelining and reconnection of multiple wells in the
Thornbury area during the first quarter of 2018 has been approved
by the AER. Capital investment of approximately $360,000 is
required to reconnect approximately 1.2 mmcfd ( net) of natural gas
into Point Loma operated facilities. The result will be an increase
in area netbacks and projected cash flow. An additional 0.8 mmcfd
(0.6 net) is available and approved in plan subject to capital
requirements. Point Loma also has plans to abandon several wells in
the area while operations are underway that is expected to
ultimately reduce operating costs and liabilities.
West shale basin Duvernay land
position:
Point Loma has established a 20 section (net)
undeveloped land position along the west shale basin Duvernay oil
window that has been the focus of recent Alberta Crown land sale
activity. Point Loma will continue to evaluate offset activity in
the Duvernay oil window as it relates to Corporation lands.
“These acquisitions continue to position Point
Loma for significant low risk development drilling in our Paddle
River core area,” said Terry Meek, President and CEO of Point
Loma.

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; anticipated activations and
activities; future gas processing rates; future product weightings;
future exploration and development opportunities; 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.
