Tethys Petroleum Limited: Tajikistan Resource Upgrade 27.5 Billion BOE DUSHANBE, TAJIKISTAN--(Marketwire - July 19, 2012) -

Tethys Petroleum Limited ("Tethys" or "the Company") (TSX:TPL)(LSE:TPL) is pleased to announce that it has received an updated independent Resource Report for its Tajikistan assets.

These cover an area of approximately 35,000 sq. km and the estimated gross unrisked mean recoverable resources are 27.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent (BOE). Key Points: -- Gross unrisked mean recoverable prospective resources of 27.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent (BOE), consisting of: -- Gross unrisked mean recoverable prospective resources of 114 trillion cubic feet (TCF) of gas -- Gross unrisked mean recoverable prospective resources of 8.5 billion barrels (Bbbls) of oil and condensate -- Upgrade due to seismic data, gravity data acquisition and interpretation and well data The resource report was prepared by Gustavson Associates of the United States and has been prepared in accordance with the reporting requirements of NI 51-101 adopted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Continued drilling and seismic campaign The final stage of the seismic programme in Tajikistan will commence this summer with equipment having been mobilized and initial interpreted results expected in Q4 2012. Once complete, this interpreted seismic will help identify the location of the first deep well to be drilled by Tethys. The initial analysis of the data from the aerial graviometry survey completed at the end of 2011 revealed several attractive prospective areas with the potential presence of very large deep sub-salt and sub-thrust prospects within the Bokhtar Production Sharing Contract ("PSC") Area. The additional seismic about to be acquired will target these areas and provide the final data in a comprehensive programme to optimally locate a deep well. This final stage of the seismic programme will involve the acquisition of new seismic in two areas; the Vaksh valley and the Dushanbe Step. The programme has been designed to target these areas as the graviometry survey and other data have identified them to be the most likely to contain large deep prospects including potential Jurassic reefs located on the edge of likely Permian basement high features. Jurassic reefs form some of the most prolific fields in the Amu Darya basin (of which the Bokhtar PSC area forms part) and no wells have ever been drilled through the overlying salt layer in Tajikistan to date. This basin is extremely prolific containing oil, gas and condensate fields and indeed some of the world's largest gas fields are located in this basin. These data also reveal significant potential in other parts of the PSC Area, including the Kulob area, however it has been decided to focus on the Vaksh valley and the Dushanbe Step initially. It is expected that this new seismic programme will further confirm the high potential in the Tethys PSC acreage. Tethys now owns an 85% interest in the Bokhtar PSC following the recent acquisition of an additional 34% interest from its partner in the project. Background: Strategy in Tajikistan The primary strategy in Tajikistan is to complete a comprehensive geological and geophysical data gathering exercise with the intention of locating and drilling the first deep exploration well below the regional salt layer. This deep well will target very large prospective resources, as set out in the independent resource report. These prospects have never been drilled before in Tajikistan but are prolific producers from similar reservoirs in the adjacent countries including Turkmenistan. This programme is firmly on track and consists of the following: -- In 2008, Tethys obtained and analysed the State geophysical information and well data of the shallower drilling that had been undertaken in the Soviet period and compiled an extensive database, which was combined with a regional geological model built in-house. -- In 2009-10, Tethys designed and acquired a regional seismic programme whereby approximately 700km of good quality seismic was obtained and interpreted. -- In 2011, Tethys carried out an aeromagnetic graviometry survey over more than half of the PSC Area. These data complement the acquired seismic data, State geophysical information and well data. -- In 2012, following on from the results of the aeromagnetic graviometry survey, a seismic contractor has been appointed and equipment mobilized to commence acquisition of focused seismic data over key prospective areas with the intention of identifying the location for the first deep well. It is planned that Tethys' large ZJ70 drilling rig "Telesto" will be mobilized to Tajikistan by year's end with the intention of drilling the deep well in 2013. Tethys also continues to exploit the shallow potential in Tajikistan with oil production from Beshtentak, deepening of the Persea exploration well and plans for further evaluation of the East Olimtoi oil discovery. Dr David Robson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tethys, added: "This hugely significant increase in our estimated resources in Tajikistan transforms our prospective resource base. I believe that these unrisked mean prospective resources are significantly greater than the estimated remaining reserves and unrisked resources in the UK North Sea(1). Geological and geophysical work undertaken has shown that Tethys is operating in a world class basin with enormous and untapped potential." "The deep prospects being pursued in Tajikistan have 'super-giant' potential and any exploration success will be transformational for the Company. These additional seismic data will help to identify the location of the first deep, sub-salt well drilled in Tajikistan targeting extremely large prospective resources." The references in this press release to "prospective resources" means those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of June 30th 2012, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. There is no certainty that any portion of these resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of these resources. The resources estimates contained or referred to are estimates only and are not meant to provide a determination as to the volume or value of hydrocarbons attributable to the Company's properties. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of resources and cash flows that may be derived, including many factors that are beyond the control of the Company. The following is a non-exhaustive list of factors which may have a significant impact on the above estimates of prospective resources: despite the classification that they are as yet undiscovered but may be potentially recoverable the Company may be unable to carry out the development or their potential recovery; the activity may not be economically viable; the Company may not have sufficient capital or time to develop them; there may be no market or transportation routes for the production; legal, contractual, environmental and governmental concerns might not allow for the recovery being undertaken; reservoir characteristics might prevent recovery. The recovery of the resources is subject to the following risks and uncertainties: market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of oil and gas pipelines and processing equipment, government regulation, political issues, export issues, competing suppliers, operational issues (exploration, production, pricing, marketing and transportation), extensive controls and regulations imposed by various levels of government, lack of capital or income, the ability to drill productive wells at acceptable costs, the uncertainty of drilling operations, factors such as delays, accidents, adverse weather conditions, and the availability of drilling rigs and the delivery of equipment. Additional information prescribed by NI 51-101 appears in a material change report to be filed, and which will be available, on www.sedar.com. Tethys is focused on oil and gas exploration and production activities in Central Asia with activities currently in the Republics of Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. This highly prolific oil and gas area is rapidly developing and Tethys believes that significant potential exists in both exploration and in discovered deposits.

Such forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain assumptions, including the fact that Tethys Petroleum will be successful in confirming the existence of the accumulations of petroleum in respect of its exploration targets, and subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the risk that limited discoveries will result from exploration wells and as a result the risk that any or all of the prospective resources will not become recoverable, as further explained above in this press release. See our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2011 for a description of risks and uncertainties relevant to our business, including our exploration activities.

Ahoj - Who knows mate but it does seem to look good.

What a ride today. Closed at 42 yesterday, opened at 48, touched 60 and closed at 45.

Not that I know anything about charts but there seems to be cups, bowls, handles, flags with shoulders and heads and a couple of W's!! Sounds good but means nowt to me.

Would just be interested on a chartists view.

Happy with the long term prospects in that already producing and transporting the stuff and they will be ramping production up later this year. Plus all the other stuff posted above.

oddsocks - 20 Jul 2012 08:40 - 19 of 109

cant beleive sp so low on what they have discovered compared to rkh etc this definatly got to be a takeover target in time

dreamcatcher - 25 Jul 2012 15:51 - 20 of 109

Tethys Petroleum jumps 8 percent as Seymour Pierce initiates coverage of the Central Asia -focused oil & gas explorer and producer with a "buy" rating and a 72 pence target price.

"This highly prolific region continues to yield significant rewards, most recently illustrated through the company's upgrade in Tajikistan. With near term production also due to ramp up in Kazakhstan, we feel the current share price represents compelling value for investors," Seymour Pierce says in a note.

FOR: TETHYS PETROLEUM LIMITED TSX, LSE SYMBOL: TPL August 15, 2012


Tethys Petroleum Limited: Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results Another Significant Period of Growth for the Business With Revenues Increased by 93% GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS--(Marketwire - Aug. 15, 2012) - Tethys Petroleum Limited ("Tethys" or "the Company") (TSX:TPL)(LSE:TPL) today announced its second quarter 2012 financial results. The results are underlined by a 93% increase in revenues over the second quarter of last year. The Company reports financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). RECENT FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS -- USD16 million loan facility secured -- Q2 2012 Total Revenue was USD10.2 million (Q2 2011 USD4.2 million) -- Q2 2012 average oil and gas production was 6,683 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Q2 2011: 5,681 barrels of oil equivalent per day) -- Q2 2012 average oil production from the Doris field in Kazakhstan was 2,927 barrels of oil per day (Q2 2011: 815 barrels of oil per day) RECENT OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS AND UPDATE -- First shipment of commercial oil production through Aral Oil Terminal (the "AOT") in Kazakhstan -- Updated Kazakh independent Resource Report estimates the gross unrisked recoverable mean prospective oil resources to be 1.23 billion barrels of oil -- AKD07 well to spud early September 2012 -- Akkulka Exploration Contract extended in Kazakhstan -- Updated Tajik independent Resource Report estimates gross unrisked mean recoverable resources are 27.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe) -- Awarded seismic contract in Tajikistan, work about to commence -- Signed Production Enhancement Contract ("PEC") for a new oil field, the Chegara Group of Fields ("Chegara"), in Uzbekistan Kazakhstan Production / development In the second quarter commercial oil sales commenced through the Aral Oil Terminal (the "AOT"), owned by Tethys and a 50% partner, which effectively halved the oil trucking distance and provides better control over the oil sales. Production was steadily increased over a period as each part of the sales chain was optimised. Moving into the third quarter production was temporarily disrupted in July due to an internal refinery issue that restricted rail cars availability within all of Kazakhstan. This issue has now been resolved and production has again reached approximately 4,000 bopd. AOT Phase 2 construction that will allow a throughput capacity of up to 6,000 bopd is progressing on schedule with 2 x 1000 m3 tanks (approximately 12,500 bbls) having already been installed and with work currently focussing on the installation of associated dehydration and pumping equipment. Phase 2 of the AOT is expected to be fully operational by October 2012. With the current well stock it is forecast that a production rate of between 4,500 and 5,000 bopd can be achieved on a continual basis. Higher rates can be achieved but it is believed that these rates are most optimal for this reservoir with the current wells. Appraisal / exploration The AKD07 appraisal/exploration well is located to the south-east of the original AKD01 (Doris) discovery well and will target 3P reserves at the Cretaceous Aptian sand level in what is believed to be a channel sand system, whilst simultaneously targeting an exciting exploration prospect (named "Dyna"), which has been identified on the recently acquired seismic data from a bright amplitude anomaly at a slightly shallower level, and is interpreted to be part of a different, larger sand fan system. This Dyna prospect has 128 million barrels gross mean unrisked recoverable prospective resources attributed to it (Gustavson Associates). It is also targeting a third horizon, a Jurassic sandstone. The well is expected to spud in the second week of September 2012 and is forecast to take approximately 55 days to drill to a depth of 2,540 meters using Tethys' own ZJ70 "Telesto" rig. It is then expected to take approximately one month to run logs, complete the well (assuming the logs are positive), receive State permissions and then test the well. The recently updated prospective resource report for Kazakhstan (Gustavson Associates) estimates gross unrisked recoverable mean prospective oil resources of 1.23 billion barrels of oil and this is the first well since that report to target this exciting exploration upside. Final signatures on the approval for the extension of the Akkulka Exploration Contract until March 10th 2015 have now been received from the Ministry of Oil and Gas (MOG) and this will allow the Company to further appraise Doris and Dione Discoveries as well as explore wider within the block in targets highlighted by the recent Kazakh Resource Report. Tajikistan The Tajik Resource Report, independently produced by Gustavson Associates, calculated a total gross mean unrisked recoverable prospective resource of 27.5 billion boe across the Bokhtar PSC. The Tajik seismic programme will commence in late August as most equipment is now in country and the contracted company "Prospectiuni" has completed the preliminary set-up and testing work. The programme, up to 870 km of 2D seismic acquisition, is designed to identify a drilling location for the first deep well expected to commence in 2013. The initial analysis of the data from the aerial graviometry survey completed at the end of 2011 revealed several attractive prospective areas with the potential presence of very large deep sub-salt and sub-thrust prospects within the Bokhtar Production Sharing Contract ("PSC") Area. The additional seismic about to be acquired will target these areas and provide the final data in a comprehensive programme to optimally locate a deep well. This final stage of the seismic programme will involve the acquisition of new seismic in two areas; the Vaksh Valley and the Dushanbe Step. The programme has been designed to target these areas as the graviometry survey and other data have identified them to be the most likely to contain large deep prospects including potential Jurassic reefs located on the edge of likely Permian basement high features. Jurassic reefs form some of the most prolific fields in the Amu Darya basin (of which the Bokhtar PSC area forms part) and no wells have ever been drilled through the overlying salt layer into that horizon in this region of Tajikistan to date. This basin is extremely prolific containing oil, gas and condensate fields and indeed some of the world's largest gas fields are located in this basin. These data also reveal significant potential in other parts of the PSC Area, including the Kulob area, however it has been decided to focus on the Vaksh Valley and the Dushanbe Step initially. It is expected that this new seismic programme will further confirm the high potential in the Tethys PSC acreage. Tethys now owns an 85% interest in the Bokhtar PSC following the recent acquisition of an additional 34% interest from its partner in the project. Tethys continues to hold discussions with numerous potential farminees with the aim of concluding an agreement by year-end. Further evaluation of the Beshtentak Field has been carried out in light of the initial success of the BST20 well. Three to four other candidates have been identified for workovers in different horizons and well preparation work is expected to commence at the end of August with initial results expected in late September. Uzbekistan Progress continues in Uzbekistan where Tethys recently announced Chegara Production Limited ("CPL"), its 100% owned subsidiary, signed a Production Enhancement Contract ("PEC") for a new oil field, the Chegara Group of Fields ("Chegara"). In addition Tethys signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU"), which agrees a timetable for the potential signing of an Exploration Agreement a highly prospective Exploration block in the North Ustyurt Basin. The Chegara Group is an underdeveloped group of fields located 14 kilometers south-west of the existing Tethys asset of North Urtabulak, and contiguous to the prolific Urtabulak gas condensate Field, within the world-class Amu Darya Basin. The reservoirs comprise Upper Jurassic age carbonates at an approximate depth of 2,650 meters, trapped below a regionally prevalent salt and anhydrite seal. The oil is of moderate gravity and at present there are 3 producing wells all flowing naturally under reservoir pressure. This currently has limited existing oil production, and will form the baseline production under the new Chegara PEC with Uzbekneftegaz. Tethys believes there is substantial additional production potential in the field. Tethys has collected and interpreted a significant volume of historic seismic, drilling, geological and production data relating to the Chegara Group of fields, and plans to initially work over the existing well stock using technologies and techniques that have been successfully implemented to increase production on the North Urtabulak Field over the previous 12 years under a very similar contractual arrangement. Furthermore, it is intended that additional geophysical data will be acquired on the field to identify undrilled areas that provide high potential upside. Currently there are only State reserves assigned to the field and no figures yet under NI 51-101 reporting procedures. The contract will become effective following standard regulatory approvals, which include the issuance of a Presidential Decree and the completion of a Feasibility Study. The PEC has a term of twenty-five (25) years and under the new PEC CPL is allocated refined products for the crude oil it produces and sells these outside Uzbekistan. Furthermore Tethys has been granted exclusive rights to carry out operations with liquid hydrocarbons on Chegara. The MOU signed with NHC Uzbekneftegaz sets out a fixed timetable to potentially sign an Exploration Agreement for a large Exploration block in the North Usyturt basin in Uzbekistan. TPL submitted a proposal for an exploration program for the block in June 2012. Once approved by NHC Uzbekneftegaz and the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan an Exploration Agreement will be negotiated. Gross production under the existing North Urtabulak PEC remains fairly constant at approximately 675 bopd. The full Q2 Results together with a Management Discussion & Analysis have been filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Copies of the filed documents may be obtained via SEDAR at www.sedar.com or on Tethys' website at www.tethyspetroleum.com. The summary financial statements are attached to this press release.

Tethys Petroleum Limited: Operations Update

GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS--(Marketwire - Sept. 10, 2012) - Tethys Petroleum Limited
("Tethys" or "the Company") (TSX:TPL) (LSE:TPL) today is pleased to announce the commencement of drilling operations at the AKD07 appraisal/exploration well in Kazakhstan, and the commencement of
further seismic acquisition in Tajikistan. The well is located to the south-east of the producing Doris field and is designed to target a potential downdip field extension at the Cretaceous Aptian sand level in what is believed to be a channel sand system (the "Doris" sand), whilst simultaneously targeting an exciting exploration prospect named "Dyna"), which has been identified on the 3D seismic data from a bright amplitude anomaly at a slightly shallower level, and is interpreted to be part of a separate, larger sand fan or sheet sand system. This Dyna prospect has 128 million barrels gross mean unrisked recoverable prospective resources attributed to it (Gustavson Associates). The well also has a deeper Jurassic level target as interpreted from the 3D seismic. The well is forecast to take approximately 55 days to drill to a planned total depth of 2,540 meters using Tethys' own ZJ70 "Telesto" rig. Following the drilling it is planned to run wireline logs, and, subject to the log results, conduct flow testing operations. The recently updated prospective resource report for Tethys' Kazakhstan assets (Gustavson Associates) estimates gross unrisked recoverable mean prospective oil resources of 1.23 billion barrels of oil and this is the first well since that report to target this exploration upside.

In Tajikistan, seismic data acquisition has now commenced as part of the new seismic programme. The initial analysis of the data from the aerial graviometry survey completed at the end of 2011 along with regional seismic and well data revealed several attractive prospective areas with the potential presence of very large deep sub-salt and sub-thrust prospects within the Bokhtar Production Sharing Contract ("PSC") Area. The additional seismic now being acquired will target the best of these areas and provide the final data in a comprehensive programme. The programme, up to 870 km of 2D seismic acquisition, is designed to identify a possible drilling location for the first deep well which the Company expects to commence drilling in 2013.

This stage of the seismic programme involves the acquisition of new seismic in two areas; the Vaksh Valley and the Dushanbe Step. The programme has been designed to target these areas as the data have identified them to be the most likely to contain large deep prospects including potential Jurassic reefs located on the edge of likely Permian basement high features. Jurassic reefs form some of the most prolific fields in the Amu Darya basin (of which the Bokhtar PSC, being in the Afghan Tajik basin, forms part) and no wells have ever been drilled through the overlying salt layer into that horizon in this region of Tajikistan to date. The area also has potential in Lower Cretaceous sandstones which form the reservoir in some super-giant fields in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. The Amu Darya basin is extremely prolific containing oil, gas and condensate fields and indeed some of the world's largest gas fields are located in this basin. These data also reveal significant potential in other parts of the PSC Area, including the Kulob area, however it has been decided to initially focus on the Vaksh Valley and the Dushanbe Step.

The recently updated prospective resource report for our Tajikistan assets (Gustavson Associates) estimates gross unrisked recoverable mean prospective resources of 27.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent (114TCF gas and 8.5 billion barrels of oil) within the Tethys PSC acreage which covers an area of 34,785 sq km. It is expected that this new seismic programme will further confirm the high potential in the Tethys Bokhtar PSC acreage in which Tethys owns an 85% interest. Tethys continues to hold discussions with a number of potential farminees with the aim of concluding an agreement by year-end. In addition, the planned workover programme on the Beshtentak Field has commenced with wellsite preparation of the first two candidate wells. Results are expected in Q4 2012.

Tethys is focused on oil and gas exploration and production activities in Central Asia with activities currently in Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. This highly prolific oil and gas area is rapidly developing and Tethys believes that significant potential exists in both exploration and in discovered deposits.
