Range Resources predicts production growth
Wed 22 May 2013


Range Resources predicts production growth LONDON (SHARECAST) - Range Resources said it is well positioned to grow production as it plans to merge with International Petroleum to build an AIM- and ASX-listed oil and gas company.

The acquisition of International Petroleum is expected to bolster Range’s current production by 300% to 76m barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe) of 2P reserves (proven and probable) and by 750% to 233m barrels of 3P reserves (proven, probable and possible).

International Petroleum’s oil and gas projects in Kazakhstan and Russia will combine with Range’s Georgian exploration properties.

Chief Executive Officer of International Petroleum, Chris Hopkinson, said he expects the merger to be completed in September.

He will take the helm of the newly merged company, which will focus exploration
in Trinidad, Russia and Africa.

In Trinidad, the QUN 141 well is being completed with logs indicating 160 feet of gross oil pay. Drilling is also currently underway on the QUN 142 well which is expected to encounter the same well-developed oil pay.

Hopkinson said the company was able to keep a tight rein on costs as it owns its own operating and drilling subsidiary in Trinidad.

In Russia, the firm is waiting for the “big freeze” to access towns that are surrounded by swamps in the summer.

The group plans to put an additional 10 wells into production, which are projected to increase output by 4,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Another 20 well targets have also been mapped.

Cashflows from Trinidad and Russia will then be used to fund exploration opportunities in Africa.

“We have an advantage over other mining companies in Africa because we have the cash flow and resources to back exploration. It gives us a huge leverage,” Hopkinson told Digital Look and Sharecast.

International Petroleum recently acquired exploration assets in Niger, Africa which covers 7,000 square kilometres of highly prospective and underexplored land in the Western Central African Rift System.

Range has received commitments for an AU$20m placement from major funds and institutions which will provide a secured loan for the assets which will complement the company’s current portfolio.

Hopkinson added the merged company expects to make £150m a year profit by 2016.

He also said it would consider exiting the ASX to become solely AIM-listed once its market capitalisation reaches around £250m. Range currently has a market cap of £82.76m on AIM.

Shares in Range fell 2.5% to 2.93p at 15:18 Wednesday.

Market still not convinced at this time.

Lol

Put on the company site today -

historic bid round Story Created: May 17, 2013 at 9:09 PM ECT The Ministry of Energy has launched its 2013 Trinidad and Tobago Onshore Bid Round for oil and gas exploration. It was formally launched on May 16. The opening of the bid round was marked by the publishing in the Gazette of the Petroleum Regulations (Onshore Competitive Bidding) Order, 2013. This marks the official start of the bidding for three exploration and production licences, the ministry said in a statement yesterday. Approximately 150,000 acres of State lands in Trinidad’s Southern Basin are being offered. These consist of the Rio Claro Block (74,954 acres), the Ortoire Block (44,731 acres) and the St Mary’s Block (37,760 acres). “The bid acreage offers a range of opportunities related to block sizes, production potential and hydrocarbon play types. There is a wealth of well and seismic data that should reduce the risk and time of exploration, and the blocks are located in a proven commercial hydrocarbon province, within close proximity to existing infrastructure and producing fields. Trinidad and Tobago has been commercially producing oil from its land acreage since 1908,” the ministry stated. The successful bidder(s) will be issued exploration and production licences and will also enter into a joint operating agreement (JOA) with State-owned oil company Petroleum Company of Trinidad and Tobago (Petro- trin). Petrotrin will also have a 20 per cent carry in all three blocks on offer, it added. Trinidad and Tobago has its own oil refinery, which is owned and operated by Petrotrin. Its current throughput is in the region of 165,000 barrels per day. The 2013 Onshore Bid Round will close on August 30. Minister of Energy Kevin Ramnarine said yesterday: “The 2013 onshore-based bid round is historic in that it is the first dedicated land-based bid round launched by the Ministry of Energy and Energy Affairs since the late 1990s. That bid round led to the Carapal Ridge discovery, which is now the Central Block, operated by BG. “It is expected that there will be a high degree of interest in this latest onshore bid round from both companies already operating in Trinidad and Tobago, and new entrants.” Details on the bid round and the bidding process can be found at the ministry’s website at www.energy.gov.tt or e-mail: tobr2013@energy.gov.tt.

If only Range could sell updates and words we'd all be rich..... :))

Guatemala Update

Range Resources Limited ("Range" or "the Company") would like to draw attention
to the announcement released by Citation Resources Limited (ASX: CTR) on the
current flow testing program on the Atzam #4 well in Guatemala (in which Range
has an indirect attributable interest of 24%).

Citation Resources has announced that following a technical review program on
the Atzam#4 well undertaken with Schlumberger, flow testing of the C13 and C14
carbonate sections of the well has commenced with the perforation of these
zones currently underway with flow testing of the target zones expected to
commence shortly. The C13 and C14 carbonate sections in the well are considered
the most prospective oil bearing reservoir units in the well based on the
electric log data, and independently confirmed following review of all the well
data by industry experts including Schlumberger.

Further details are contained in the Citation Resources announcement, which can
be accessed at:

Range Resources: Testing starts on Atzam 4 well in Guatemala
By Proactive Investors May 30 2013, 9:08am Range Resources: Testing starts on Atzam 4 well in Guatemala

Range Resources (LON:RRL, ASX:RRS) highlighted that testing has started on the Atzam 4 well in Guatemala.

The AIM quoted firm has a 24% indirect interest in the well, via its shareholding in Resources (ASX: CTR).

Citation’s 70% owned associate Latin American Resources has started flow testing the two most prospective oil bearing reservoir units in Atzam-4.

The C13 and C14 carbonate sections in the well were considered the most prospective oil bearing reservoir units in the well based on the electric log data, and independently confirmed following review of all the well data by industry experts, including Schlumberger.

Both zones are the main producing zones at the Rubelsanto Field just 17 kilometres to the northeast that has flowed over 30mln barrels of oil to date from eight wells.

Following completion of testing, the plan is to install a gas separator on the electrical submersible pump for further evaluation of the oil production potential from Lower C17/Upper C18.

These sections had produced oil at an initial rate of 50 barrels per day with limited ESP performance due to gas production.

Ralph E Davis and Associates (RED) have estimated that Atzam-4 holds Probable Reserves of 2.3 million barrels of oil based on the results of the logging and the analytical work completed by Schlumberger.

Significant Initial Oil Production Establishes Commercial Atzam #4 Well in Guatemala

Range Resources Limited ("Range" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the
following update with respect to its stake in Guatemalan project (in which
Range has an indirect attributable interest of 24%), released by Citation
Resources Limited (ASX:CTR) today:

- Initial 7 foot section (2846-2853ft.) perforated in the Upper C17 carbonates
has produced significant oil and gas to surface immediately post perforation;

- Flow rate of 610 bopd established over 24 hour period - average of hourly
flow rates using varying choke sizes with a recorded peak of + 1,000 bopd;

- No acid wash or reservoir stimulation used flow rate generated by natural
reservoir pressure;

- Oil cut of 99% from producing zone, with strong gas flare;

- Good quality 29° API oil, with calculated natural reservoir pressure of 1300
psi;

- Pressure gauges will now be used to confirm the reservoir pressure reading
from the producing C17 zone to establish updated resource estimates for the
Atzam Project and Atzam #4 well;

- Current Probable Reserve estimate of 2.3m barrels of oil in Atzam #4 well
alone, to be revised on results;

- Production is being stored in onsite tanks - commercial sales of production
to commence; and

- Net backs in Guatemala approximately 50% of the WTI market price -
favourable economics; and

- Highly prospective 13ft. zone in Upper C17 and the C13 and C14 carbonate
sections that are the producing units in the Rubelsanto Field - remain
untested due to the high pressure oil and gas production from perforated zone
- will be perforated in future well production operations.

Very little interest on the ASX,+1%?

Nevertheless, up 12% here, with very heavy volume.

only another 12p needed until i break even. Though any rise gratefully received.
GL to all who still hold

We need it robertalexander. :-))

UPDATE: Range Resources expects to revise Atzam estimates after strong flows
By Proactive Investors June 03 2013, 1:03pm Flow rates over the 24 hour test period averaged 610 bopd with a recorded peak of over 1,000 bopd.Flow rates over the 24 hour test period averaged 610 bopd with a recorded peak of over 1,000 bopd.

--Adds share price details and broker comment--

Range Resources (LON:RRL) shares gained over 10% on Monday following positive testing results from the Atzam 4 well in Guatemala.


The results revealed oil flows of 610 barrels of oil per day (bopd), peaking at over 1,000 bopd.

It is believed that a revised estimate of oil reserves is now likely.

The current estimate for probable reserves at Atzam #4 is 2.3mln barrels of oil, but this will be revised after the latest results, Range said.

Atzam flowed good quality 29° API oil, with calculated natural reservoir pressure of 1300 pounds per square inch (psi). The producing C17 zone will now be pressure tested to establish updated resource estimates for the Atzam Project and Atzam #4 well.

Range has a 24% indirect stake in Atzam through its holding in Citation Resources. Range said it will lend up to a further A$1mln to Citation to help fund the ongoing Atzam operations.

After perforating a seven foot section in the reservoir in the Upper C17 carbonates from 2846-2853 feet, the Atzam #4 well immediately started to produce fluids and gas to surface without assistance, Range said.

Following an initial well clean up with recovery of fluids, the well produced at an average rate of 610 bopd over a 24 hour period using various choke sizes.

"With the volume of oil being produced at these reservoir pressures, the operator is unable to be immediately testing a highly prospective 13 foot section in the Upper C17 above this producing unit or the C13 and C14 carbonate sections that are the producing units in the Rubelsanto Field."

UK broker Old Park Lane Capital drew comparisons between the Guatemala project and the group’s past success in the United States.

“Range’s well timed investment in an exciting development project looks to have paid off again. Although Guatemala represents a modest part of the group’s portfolio, the early flow rates established from only one zone in the Atzam #4 well justify Range’s investment,” said analyst Barney Grey.

OPL Capital rates Range as a ‘buy’ with a 13p per share target.

On AIM, Range shares were up 13.48% trading at 3.2p each.

Bring it on that is all I can say - hope your Brother is getting on okay dc.

Case was handled very poorly by the CPS. Driver walked away scot free. Solicitors and police working overtime at the moment. ie an appeal and private prosecution. Again cannot say to much. Thanks for asking 3m. Will update you in time.
Ps Being as the police thought dead at the side of the road more heavily knocked out goes against you in court as the judge states you cannot remember much. So if you are going to mow down a cyclist do it well and you walk away free.

That report above is one of the best and lets you know the stage the company is at or more not at. :-))
