Acquisition of an Interest in an Oil Lease in Lane County, Kansas
TomCo today announces that it has acquired a 15 per cent. working interest in an
oil lease, the JELP 111 lease ('JELP') in Lane County, Kansas, comprising
approximately 400 acres. The interest in the lease was acquired in a private
sale for a total cash consideration of $30,000.
It is intended that the initial well will commence drilling within 60 days, to a
projected depth sufficient to adequately test the Lansing-Kansas City 'M' Zone
Formation at approximately 4320 feet measured depth. There will be opportunities
to drill up to 3 offsetting wells, if the initial well is commercially successful,
with SEDONA Oil & Gas Corporation acting as the operator. TomCo has a 15 per
cent. interest in the 80 per cent. net revenue interest after landowner
royalties.
Based upon offsetting oil production from the targeted reservoir, the Company
considers the wells proposed as low risk locations, with anticipated initial
production rates of 20 barrels per day per well if successful.
