About Rose Petroleum

 

Rose Petroleum plc (AIM Ticker: ROSE) is focusing on developing its oil & gas portfolio, while seeking to create value from its existing mining, milling and porphyry copper exploration portfolio.

 

In March 2014, Rose signed a farm-in agreement under which its newly formed subsidiary, Rose Petroleum (Utah) LLC, can earn 75% of certain oil, gas and hydrocarbon leases covering approximately 230,000 acres in Grand and Emery Counties, Utah, USA, within the Paradox and Uinta basins.

 

In May 2014, Rose published the results of its reserve report prepared by Ryder Scott Company on the Mancos and Paradox Oil & Gas Projects. Un-risked Prospective (Recoverable) Hydrocarbon Resources on a Mean Case basis for the collective total Mancos Shale and Paradox Formation combined was 1,825.07 MMBO (million barrels of oil) and 6,447.87 BCFG (billion cubic feet of gas).

 

In June 2014, the Company successfully raised £6.5m by way of an oversubscribed conditional placing and subscription to develop the Mancos and Paradox assets in Eastern Utah, and the completion of a further £3.5 million fundraise was announced on 5 December 2014.

 

In October 2014, Rose acquired 100% of the assets of a privately owned SEP - Cisco Dome, LLC and various other associated entities for US$1.5 million in cash. The acquired assets included 11,000.02 gross / 8,250.02 net acres of highly prospective Mancos acreage, a gas compression station and gas processing plant as well as 17 producing wells and 35 shut-in wells.

 

Management intends to build on these projects to establish a balanced international asset portfolio. For further information please consult the Company's website: www.rosepetroleum.com
