Bering Exploration Inc.
Bering has identified a new prospect through its exclusive partnership with Glaux Oil & Gas, LLC (Glaux) that covers 500,000 acres in the Permian Basin. This new prospect of approximately 640 acres has potential gross reserves of 950,000 barrels of oil and, based upon today's prices, equates to $88 million dollars of gross revenues or $3.50 per share. There is no guarantee that this prospect will be successful or that these numbers will be achieved due to production and/or price fluctuations. Bering is currently conducting its technical assessment and once satisfactorily completed will begin leasing the mineral rights. Bering expects to initially retain a100% working interest.
This prospect was the first identified as a result of its recently announced three year exclusive exploration agreement with Glaux for the development of numerous leads and prospects in approximately 500,000 gross acres in West Texas using a proprietary aeromagnetic survey. Once leased, Bering will use other advanced oil finding technologies such as telluric and seismic to identify well locations.
The Permian Basin is one of the largest and most active oil basins in the United States, with the entire basin accounting for approximately 19 percent of total U.S. oil production. The Permian Basin remains a significant oil-producing province and contains an estimated 30 Billion barrels of remaining mobile oil and has the biggest potential for additional oil production in the country, containing 29% of estimated future oil reserve growth. Through increased use of enhanced-recovery practices the Permian Basin can have a substantial impact on U.S. oil production.
"We are excited to have our initial prospect generated by Glaux and expect to begin the leasing phase later this month," stated Steven Plumb, VP of Finance of Bering. "Our exclusive relationship with Glaux has provided us with this quality prospect that has been identified using unique and exciting technologies."
