As announced on 30 June 2009, Jumonville #2 successfully perforated and commenced production from the Miogyp sandstone with an initial production rate of 750 barrels of oil per day and 250,000 cubic feet of gas. The well is currently producing at 600 bbl oil per day and 350 mcf gas per day.

The Jumonville #2 well was been brought into immediate commercial production providing a substantial increase to cash flow. Jumonville oil is high quality 40 gravity oil which under the current sales contract yields a $2 per barrel premium to West Texas Intermediate (WTI).

The Joint Venture is pleased to have successfully drilled and tested this complex well. All of the objective formations were penetrated and the Jumonville #2 well has delivered an excellent commercial result in its prime objective. In addition, the Jumonville #2 well still has another oil zone yet to be tested in the Camerina section which provides further upside across the Bullseye prospect along with the Marg Vag, a new interval which is a highly productive oil zone north of the Bullseye Prospect and has been penetrated in the Jumonville #1 and #2 wells.   

The well produced 28,895 bbl of oil and 19,657 mcf of gas for the quarter ending 30 June 2009 and total overall production since initial production has been 110,533 bbl of oil and 41,080 mcf of gas.

With the normal increase in water production from the water drive Miogyp interval, the Joint Venture elected to convert the Acosta well into a salt water disposal well at a low cost while still retaining the well bore to eventually drill a side track in order to develop one of the new Miogyp locations and or test the Camerina.  The financial benefit of injecting produced water is material as current costs of disposing of water is over $4 per barrel. This disposal well is presently saving the joint venture over US$200,000 per month in water disposal costs and has substantially reduced operating costs.

Given the current economic benefit of using the Acosta well for water disposal, testing of the Camerina in this well will most likely occur after testing of the Camerina in the Jumonville #1 well. However, there are opportunities in the present market to drill a new very low cost disposal well which may change current plans. 

Following the drilling and completion of Jumonville #2 a Reserve Study has been commissioned to quantify the proven and probable reserves of the Miogyp discovery at the Bullseye prospect.  It is anticipated that the study results will be announced in September 2009.

Following the commencement of oil being produced from Jumonville #1 in late September 2008 the Joint Venture commenced construction of production facilities to cater for production of both oil and gas.

The tank battery and surface production facilities consists of four 1,500 bbl tanks, water injection tanks, separators, heater treater, dehydration units along with various flow lines capable of handling the Miogyp development.  The construction of these facilities over a very small period represents a significant achievement and has enabled the Joint venture to continue producing and selling both oil and gas in order to assist with funding the drilling of Jumonville #2.  The current capacity is adequate to cater for 3,000 barrels of oil and 5 million cubic of gas per day.

Quest Petroleum has a 5% working interest in the Bullseye Project and facilities.
