Maurel & Prom, MPI and Pétrolia sign joint venture agreement
The companies Pétrolia, Maurel & Prom and MPI, through a pooled investment
company, are pleased to announce that they have signed a 50/50 joint venture
agreement for the development of thirteen hydrocarbon exploration permits in
Gaspésie. Maurel & Prom and MPI have assigned this operation to Saint-Aubin
Énergie S.A.S., a collective investment undertaking, two-thirds of which is
owned by MPI and one-third by Maurel & Prom.
The partners will also pursue talks aimed at expanding their partnership to
other regions in Quebec that will be added to the current permits, which now
cover an area of 1,892 km(2) in Gaspésie. These permits are aimed primarily at
unconventional reservoirs, but that is not to say that traditional deposits will
be ruled out.
Over the coming months, the Pétrolia and Maurel & Prom technical teams will work
on designing a voluntary exploration programme.
They will pool their technical expertise in exploration and production while
initially entrusting the role of operator in charge of implementation to
Pétrolia.
About Pétrolia

14,000 km(2) (3.5 million acre) area, representing around 17% of the land in

mostly located on the Gaspé Peninsula and on Anticosti Island. They represent
nearly 70% of the land under permit for which there is onshore oil potential in
Quebec. Pétrolia has 69,431,372 shares issued and outstanding and working
capital of US$4,000,000.
