Drilling Update, Canada
Solo today announces a further update on activities in South Western Ontario, Canada operated by its Joint Venture partner Reef Resources Limited ("Reef").
Reef's announcement, to the Toronto exchange, reads:
April 2, 2012 - Calgary, Alberta - Reef Resources Ltd. (REE - TSX.V) ("Reef" or the "Company") reports that drilling of its North Airport well reached total depth of 608 metres on March 29. Open-hole electric logging has been successfully conducted. Logs indicate potential for natural gas in the shallow A2 zone as well as indications of hydrocarbon in the Guelph. Petrophysical analysis will be initiated immediately to better determine both net pay and production potential, and details of the petrophysical study will be released when complete.
Subject to final results of the North Airport well, gas and any gas liquids will be used to further enhance the gas recycle and EOR program at the Ausable reef. The well will be connected via pipeline to the standing Airport South natural gas/liquids well currently being tied into the Ausable process facility.
Neil Ritson, Solo Executive Director, commented;
"Success at the Airport North #1 well will provide additional gas reserves to support the Ausable EOR scheme where gas from Airport South and utility gas from the Union Gas pipeline are already being tied in. Ultimate recovery at Ausable depends on pressure maintenance and gas recycling so the availability of further gas sources will be extremely good news."
