The next Helium one only with oil as well.
Pennpetro Energy PLC
("PPP" or "Pennpetro")
Significant Revenue Deal Signed on Texas Oil Assets
and
50/50 Texas Lithium and Gas Joint Venture
London, 17 July, 2024 - Pennpetro Energy PLC (LSE: PPP), has now signed a very significant and transformative deal Heads of Terms ("HOT") with Globalvision International U. LDA ("Globalvision") , an energy trading business based in Madeira, whereby they will buy all of the shares in Pennpetro's subsidiary in Texas Nobel USA Inc ("Nobel") in exchange for a life of asset currently estimated at around 30 years oil sales revenues through a 12.5% Overriding Royalty Interest ("ORI") on the Texan oil wells - City of Gonzales #1 well, Chalk Talk #1 well, Chalk Talk #4 well and Whistling Straits #5 well in Gonzales and a 10% profit share on any other wells drilled or developed within PPP's 2,036 acres in Texas.
In addition, Globalvision will take over all creditors that existed in Texas leaving Pennpetro completely free of any financial obligations associated with Texas.
Very importantly on the lithium and gas front, the HOT sets out an arrangements with Globalvision to acquire 50% of Nobel Petroleum LLC ("NPLLC") for a 50/50 Joint Venture ("JV") where the parties seek to assess the scope for developing gas production from the AMI with ESGY Energy Inc ("ESGY"), and also importantly to assess the potential to produce lithium from any well in the AMI over the life of the project term.
Pennpetro announced the ESGY transaction on November 2022, when it signed a Heads of Terms ("HoT") agreement with ESGY for a proposed petroleum joint venture covering multiple counties in East Texas. Pennpetro's Nobel would enter into a Joint Venture and Standard-Form Joint Operating Agreement with ESGY pursuant to which Nobel will be responsible for up to 75% of the cost to drill and complete two exploration wells ("Commitment Wells") to a depth sufficient to test certain shallow gas seismic prospects for early production. Nobel would be appointed as the Operator and will carry ESGY for 12.5% working interest of the cost to drill and complete each well to the tanks and ESGY will have the right to back-in for a further 12.5% working interest after Nobel fully recovers its expenditures.
Nobel will select the Commitment Wells from ESGY's inventory of more than 300 shallow gas prospects, further defined as those seismic anomalies identified from a major Exxon 2-D seismic dataset in the north Houston salt dome and adjoining counties of Texas, as well as Rapides Parish and adjoining parishes of Louisiana. Nobel will further select an additional twenty-eight shallow gas prospects ("Highgraded Prospects") in which Nobel will be granted a Right of First Refusal ("ROFR") by ESGY.
Upon fulfilling its obligations by the drilling of the Commitment Wells, Nobel will have earned the Right of First Refusal ("ROFR") with respect to the Highgraded Prospects and an additional
