BRS Resources to Participate in Drilling Gradizza Exploration Well
(firmenpresse) - DALLAS, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 05/09/13 -- BRS Resources (TSX VENTURE: BRS) is pleased to announce that AleAnna Resources LLC, in which BRS owns a membership interest, will participate in the drilling of the Po Valley Energy's (ASX: PVE) Gradizza-1 exploration well in the La Prospera licence (north of Bologna in Italy's Po Valley), through a farm-in agreement executed between PVE and AleAnna.
The agreement allows AleAnna to earn a 10% interest in the drilling of the exploration well Gradizza-1, planned for late June 2013. The farm-in agreement is subject to regulatory approvals by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development (Ministero dello Sviluppo Economico).
The La Prospera license, located in the Ferrara province north of Bologna, was awarded to PVE in September 2008. A subsequent seismic interpretation of 16,800 acre (68 km) of ENI seismic lines identified the Quaternary sands sequence within the Gradizza prospect. The Italian authorities granted final approval to drill the Gradizza-1 well in January 2013. PVE has already ordered long lead items and recently commenced civil works for the Gradizza-1 well site. The exploration well has a targeted depth of 3,280 ft (1,000 m) with Prospective Best Estimate gas Resources of 9.0 bcf.
BRS president & CEO Mr. Steven Moore commented: "The farm-in agreement with PVE is strategically important to AleAnna and BRS, because it allows us to expand our operational activities in Italy at an accelerated pace. To work with a proven operator such as PVE will be a great benefit and learning experience for us, as well. AleAnna has several licensed areas adjacent to PVE's La Prospera license, where AleAnna has carried out extensive 3D geophysical surveys and identified numerous drillable prospects and leads with excellent reserve potential and compelling expected economics."
