Brockham Update
Alba Mineral Resources plc (AIM: Alba), the diversified mineral exploration and development company, announces that Angus Energy Plc, the operator of the Brockham Oil Field under Production Licence ("PL") 235 ("Angus" or the "Operator"), has provided the following update regarding Brockham:
· The long lead equipment to isolate the water zones at Brockham has been sourced and is ready for shipping from the USA.
· The primary item of equipment, which would have taken over three months to be manufactured, has now been sourced more efficiently and cost effectively from another supplier.
· Angus is currently considering the options for logging the well in order to identify the water zones.
· Angus shall immediately start rig selection and submit a detailed engineering programme for approval by Angus's fellow licensees on PL 235 and by all relevant regulators.
· If so approved, the operation will be conducted in two stages: firstly, identification and isolation of the water zones, followed by the commencement of production testing.
Alba owns a direct 5 per cent interest in PL 235.
George Frangeskides, Alba's Executive Chairman, commented: "It is good to hear that Angus Energy is advancing plans at pace to tackle the water influx at Brockham. We look forward to reporting on further details in due course."
