Nextraction also has acquired the leasehold rights to a 60 percent interest to 360 acres contiguous to its current acreage position. The lease will become effective within 90 days and upon obtaining clear title. "Recently we completed the Noble No. 6-24 well and extended production on the Pinedale Anticline to the north,” said Mark S. Dolar, president and CEO. “We are optimistic about the opportunity to continue development along the northern crest of this prolific region." "Adding to our leasehold shows our commitment to the Pinedale project and the development of the assets, which we believe to be highly prospective and potentially valuable to the growth of the company." |
