PetroTal Corp (AIM: PTAL): Potential reserve addition

• The VS1 sand has produced ~320 bbl/d of 18.6 API oil during a brief test of a sidetrack of Well 20H. The oil gravity is similar to that found in the VS2 reservoir. • The VS1 reservoir has not been developed to date as the company has only focused on the VS2 that has much better permeability. • The initial oil in place in the VS1 reservoir estimated in the 2P case is ~84 mmbbl. Assuming 20% recovery factor would add ~17 mmbbl additional 2P reserves. Note that this is a long term goal as it wi...

There are also opportunities to develop bypassed oil with horizontal wells drilled high on the structure. • The oil is currently sold at the Iquitos refinery and passes by the Bretana field (in b...
