Pacific Energy Development Announces
Closing of Acquisition of Over 23,000 Net Producing Acres in the
Permian Basin
Significant Horizontal Infill Opportunities in Prolific San Andres
Formation
Houston,
Texas, Tuesday, September 4, 2018 – PEDEVCO Corp. d/b/a
Pacific
Energy Development (NYSE American: PED) (the
“Company") announced today that effective September 1, 2018
it closed the previously announced acquisition of over 23,000 net
leasehold acres, all operated production, and all related existing
infrastructure and certain operating companies from certain U.S.
subsidiaries of Hunter Oil Corp. (OTCQX: HOILF; TSX-V: HOC). These
assets are located in the Chaveroo and Milnesand fields of the
prolific San Andres play in the Northwest Shelf of the Permian
Basin situated in West Texas and eastern New Mexico, and are
notable as follows:
●
Historical
production from these two fields is 48 million cumulative barrels
of oil equivalent (“MMBOE”), with more than 600 MMBOE
(~93%) estimated remaining in place.
●
440 vertical San
Andres wells have already been drilled in the two fields without a
single dry hole.
●
Greater than 100
feet of net thickness in the main pay zone of the San Andres
reservoir across the asset provides ideal environment to apply
horizontal drilling technology to existing infill
locations.
●
Development plan to
be announced by the Company next week.
Dr.
Simon Kukes, the CEO of the Company, commented, "We are pleased to
announce the closing of this transformative acquisition, which,
together with our D-J Basin asset, we believe will provide the
Company with a core platform from which to build a significant oil
and gas company. We look forward to announcing our development
plans for the San Andres asset next week as we have already began
the planning and design work on the development
plan.”
