King Resources Cancels Reverse Stock Split and Announces Offshore Gulf of Mexico Exploration Play; 3-D Seismic Analysis Indicat
08 Juin 2006 - 3:54PM
Business Wire
King Resources (OTC:KING), announced that it has executed a Letter
of Intent with Capco Energy, Inc., whereby King will operate and
earn a 50% working interest in Vermillion Blocks 112 and 113 by
drilling a wildcat well to a total depth of 15,000 feet. Due to the
acquisition of the prospect and other exploration opportunities,
along with the company's small public float, a decision was made to
rescind the previously announced reverse split. Management
recognizes the confusion regarding the reverse split, however, it
is important to note that King's management sees new opportunities
on a daily basis. Vermillion Blocks 112 and 113 totaling 10,000
acres are located in federal waters approximately 30 miles off of
the Louisiana coast in 40 feet of water. The seismic stratagraphic
analysis of the prospective zones in this prospect exhibit a thick
sand section with stacked amplitude anomalies which suggest
potential multiple pay zones. The presence of gas, condensate and
oil is expected based upon cores taken from a well in Vermillion
Block 109, four miles to the northwest. Geological and geophysical
data based upon 3-D seismic indicate the probability of multiple
gas, oil and condensate reservoirs down to a depth of 15,000 feet
or deeper, with the possibility of potential reserves of
approximately 250 billion cubic feet of gas. King will receive 75%
of the net revenue until payout of the first well. Thereafter, all
revenues and costs on this and subsequent wells will be shared on a
50-50 basis. The leases have a 20% royalty and override, leaving an
80% net revenue interest to King and Capco. The estimated drilling
cost for the first well is $6.5 million with a projected total cost
of $100 million to develop the field if the projected reserves are
correct, of which $55 million of the total cost will be allocated
to King. King's team has extensive offshore exploration experience
in drilling, designing production platforms and production. King's
team has evaluated and developed projects in the Gulf of Mexico,
the North Sea, offshore Nigeria, and other areas. Meet Management
