SONORO ENERGY SECURES RIG TO COMMENCE DRILLING ON THE COUNTESS WELL IN ALBERTA

Sonoro Energy Ltd. has secured a drilling rig for its Countess well in Alberta. The Precision Drilling Corp. rig PD239 is completing another job in the area and will immediately be available for Sonoro for the Countess well. The rig is expected to arrive on site in the next few days for rigging up and a well spud date by mid-next week.

The well will target Mississippian-aged carbonate formations at an estimated depth of approximately 3,500 feet. Drilling operations are expected to commence by or before Aug. 11, and take approximately one week to reach total depth.

Rig PD239 is a Super Single trailer style rig that allows for swift transport between rig sites and simplistic rigging up. The Precision crew engaged for the operation is a long-term crew with an impeccable safety record. The rig is a 600-horsepower outfitted with a 5,000-pound-per-square-inch circulating system.

The Countess well is located at 04-15-19-15 W4, approximately 10 kilometres west of Brooks, Alta. Sonoro is the operator of the well and holds a 100-per-cent working interest in the project.

By drilling the Countess well, Sonoro will earn a 100-per-cent interest in 3.5 sections of prospective leases currently held by Badlands Resources. Several similar follow-up prospects have already been mapped on this acreage, reinforcing the strategic importance of this initial test well.
