Aroway Energy Inc. Announces West Hazel Property Reserves
Aroway Energy Inc. Announces West Hazel Property Reserves
Calgary, Alberta, April 11, 2013 – AROWAY ENERGY INC. (TSX-V: ARW) (OTCQX: ARWJF) (www.arowayenergy.com) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results of its independent reserves evaluation in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101") on its newly acquired 100% owned and operated West Hazel property in Western Saskatchewan as at December 1, 2012.
The independent reserves evaluation is focused on Aroway’s 100% owned and operated oil producing property in West Hazel, Saskatchewan. Aroway Energy purchased the property effective November 27, 2012 and owns a 100% working interest in the producing oil property. The West Hazel property at the time of the acquisition had a third party reserve report which the company had reviewed in the diligence process prior to completing the sale. Once the Company had the opportunity to manage the wells and create an optimization strategy for the property, Trimble Engineering Associates Ltd. ("Trimble") was engaged to complete a new report as at December 1, 2012.
Chris Cooper, President & CEO commented, “We are extremely pleased with the results of Trimble’s evaluation on our 100% owned and operated West Hazel Property. The report is a reflection of our strategy to acquire assets at their proven value or less, and in this case we paid 32% below the proven value and 57% below the proven plus probable value discounted at 10% before tax. We have begun the regulatory process of down spacing the West Hazel property to facilitate the drilling of additional oil wells and designing a water handling facility in order to approximately double current production, reduce our operating costs and extend the life of the reserves. We will continue to be active in the acquisition arena while we work up our 2013 summer and winter drill program over spring breakup.”
Highlights of Trimble Report:
Proved Reserves
• 46.7% Increased Proved reserves to 168,600 bbls (100% oil)
• NPV of Proved reserves is $4.062 million (before tax, discounted at 10%)
Proved plus Probable Reserves
• 83.8% Increased Proved plus Probable reserves to 258,300 bbls (100% oil).
• NPV of Proved plus Probable reserves is $6.423 million (before tax, discounted at 10%)
