T-45 Well Logging Update

 

Frontera Resources Corporation (AIM: FRR), the European focused oil and gas exploration and production company, is pleased to provide an update on T-45 drilling operations.

 

The Company has completed open hole well logging of the recently drilled section of T-45 well, which has deepened the existing wellbore to 2700m. The open hole logging suite consisted of resistivity, neutron porosity, sonic, bulk density, and gamma ray measurements. Data processing has confirmed pay interval identifications made during the drilling operation along with added clarity regarding total combined pay.

 

The oil stained cuttings at 2460-2475m were confirmed to be within a 14.9m combined pay interval of Zone 13. This is a further developed pay section in addition to the original Zone 9, 14 and 15 targets.

 

Combined pay for Zones 9, 14 and 15 within T-45 well has been calculated to be 98.9m with 16.3% porosity. This exceeds the base case of combined 53.0m pay and 15.0% porosity as it has been assumed in previous reservoir modeling and Taribani field valuation and does not include the potential identified in Zone 13.

 

Zaza Mamulaishvili, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented:

 

"We are hugely excited to see an excellent correlation between the drilling and logging data.

 

The fact that current results have exceeded our expectations gives greater confidence and support to our work program that, once we effectively perforate, stimulate, and produce from Zones 9, 14 and 15 in the Eldari formation, the Taribani field will deliver great value to our shareholders and Georgia's energy industry."

 

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
