The Bootleg 4 and 5 wells are flowing, early rates are dominated by
frack fluids and therefore higher oil rates are anticipated after these
fluids are recovered.
Bootleg 6 and 7 have completed the cased hole logging program and have
been pressure tested and are both ready to frack.
Bootleg 8 has been prepared for the running of a frack string. The
Bootleg 6, 7 and 8 fracks are scheduled for the last half of Sept. Each
well is programmed for a 30 stage frack.
Frontier Rig 24 is drilling the curve on Ironbank 4-14-13TFH at a depth
of 10,923 feet. This well is targeting the Three Forks bench 1 and is
the first of four the easterly directed laterals.

Gladys has been on stream for 4 days and the IP rate and the average
rate are the averages for those 4 days. The total oil produced includes
717 BO produced during the coil tubing operation. The early production
data from Gladys is in line with Samson’s type curve however, it is
expected that the oil rate will improve and this has been demonstrated
by a lift in the rate on the 14th of September to 695 BOPD.
SOUTH PRAIRIE PROJECT, WARD COUNTY, NORTH DAKOTA
York
#3-9 well (SSN 25%)
The York #3-9 well located in T156N R82W S3 on the eastern flank of the
Williston Basin spud over the weekend and surface casing was set and
cemented. Preparations are currently being made to drill out of the
surface casing to a total depth of approximately 5,000 feet. The York
#3-9 well will test the Pubco Prospect which targets the Glenburn zone
of the Mississippian Mission Canyon Formation. The York #3-9 well will
be the first test of three different Glenburn structural closures mapped
along the Prairie Salt dissolution edge on the South Prairie 3-D seismic
survey.
REPORTING FORMAT
Samson has decided that it will revert to a regular monthly reporting
format unless there is a need to announce a specific well result in
accordance with our full disclosure policy. The monthly reports will be
published on the Monday/Tuesday of the second week in the month and will
include details of individual wells and the Company’s prior month’s
production. This reporting format is expected to deliver a more
meaningful report on the Company’s activities.
Samson’s Ordinary Shares are traded on the Australian Securities
Exchange under the symbol “SSN.” Samson’s American Depository Shares
(ADSs) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange MKT under the symbol
“SSN.” Each ADS represents 20 fully paid Ordinary Shares of Samson.
Samson has a total of 2,837 million ordinary shares issued and
outstanding (including 230 million options exercisable at AUD 3.8
cents), which would be the equivalent of 141.85 million ADSs.
Accordingly, based on the NYSE MKT closing price of US$0.35 per ADS on
Sept 15th, 2014, the Company has a current market capitalization of
approximately US$51.3 million (the options have been valued at an
exchange rate of 0.8996). Correspondingly, based on the ASX closing
price of A$0.020 for ordinary shares and a closing price of A$0.009 for
the 2017 options, on Sept 15th, 2014, the Company has a current market
capitalization of approximately A$58.6 million.
