('Enegi' or 'the Company')
Operational and corporateΒ update
Enegi, the westernΒ NewfoundlandΒ focused oil and gas company, provides anΒ operationalΒ and corporateΒ update.
Following Enegi'sΒ announcementΒ of the preliminary results of theΒ PAP#1-ST#3 wellΒ on 9 February,Β theΒ CompanyΒ is examining various options for improving the flow rate and recovery from the well. It is too early, however, to determine whether any of these options will be technically effective orΒ economicallyΒ justifiable.Β The Company is also continuing to investigate the geological implications of the GHS well in relation to the trend of undrilled prospects in the group'sΒ 100% owned acreage to the north east.
Enegi has been advised that the financial position of PDI Production Inc. ('PDIP'), the Company's wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, has been materially adversely affected by results of the PAP#1-ST#3 which was expected to generate revenue for the group going forward. PDIP now has liabilities in excess of its assets and has entered into discussions with its creditors to reschedule payment of its liabilities.
Enegi is working closely with PDIP to ensure that the group's assets continue to be developed and the value of those assets is maximizedΒ for the benefit of shareholders. To this end, the Company isΒ continuing the reviewΒ of its operational and financial options thatΒ it announced previously. Further announcementsΒ will be made when the Company has greater clarityΒ on theΒ outcome of thisΒ reviewΒ and any update on the financial position of PDIP.
