The Company is currently testing the flow rate with 128/64” choke.  The Company perforated 42 feet in H1 (DST-1), and will perforate 30 feet in H2 (DST-2), 125 feet in H3 (DST-3), and 127 feet in H4 (DST-4).  A further update will be provided with final DST results in the coming weeks.

Serafino Iacono, Chief Executive Officer of NGE, commented: “We are very pleased with the DST results from the H1 Zone at Aruchara-3 and are working diligently to continue testing the well in the H2, H3 and H4 zones which include the 570 feet of net gas pay in a new area. With the strong results from H1 and a very large area still to be tested, it is anticipated that the Aruchara-3 well will allow the Company to reach pipeline capacity.”
