49 North Resources Inc. Announces Closing of Kindersley Viking Asset Sale

09.11.2012  |  CNW
SASKATOON, Nov. 9, 2012 /CNW/ - Allstar Energy Limited ("Allstar"), a 100% owned subsidiary of 49 North Resources Inc. ("49 North") (TSXV: FNR), today closed the previously announced sale of its Kindersley Viking assets for aggregate cash proceeds (after closing adjustments) of approximately $24.1 million. The proceeds will be allocated amongst the joint venture partners in accordance with their working interests, with the balance used to eliminate the indebtedness under Allstar's outstanding credit facility and to provide drilling capital for Allstar's Riverside and Red Pheasant properties. It is the company's intention to replace the production that has been sold in this transaction within the next fiscal year.

This transaction is the culmination of 2.5 years of work in the Kindersley Viking play and is another example of execution on the business model of 49 North. Allstar retains a 100% interest in approximately 52,000 acres of heavy oil land with existing production.

The Riverside play encompasses 100% interest in 31,360 acres of multi zone (Basal Manville and Detrital zones) heavy oil play and Viking gas play. The Company has successfully recompleted 2 wells that are on production and flowing approximately 100 barrels per day combined. The Company has recently completed an extensive 20 sq.km. 3D seismic program on the property (see the press release of October 17, 2012) and plans to initiate a new drill program at Riverside based on the interpreted data before year end. Additionally, the Company acquired 2.6 sq km of 3D seismic which has yielded 5 additional development well targets in the vicinity of the 2 producing wells.

The Red Pheasant lands consist of 100% interest in Indian Oil and Gas Canada (IOGC) agreements covering roughly 20,319 acres. The Red Pheasant IOGC lands have proven to contain Manville heavy oil that the Company has drilled a total of 8 wells into. 3D seismic at Red Pheasant has been interpreted and identified a promising well inventory. Future programs will look to drill development wells into the seismic based locations that will help further expand the currently known reservoirs.
