Award of Costa Del Sole Permit, Sicily, Italy



Sound Oil, the upstream oil and gas company with assets in Italy and Indonesia, is pleased to announce the award of the Costa Del Sole Permit, onshore Sicily to the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Apennine Energy srl. Apennine Energy will be the 100% interest holder and operator of the permit. The award is made by the Department of Energy of the Sicily Region subject to the submission and acceptance of an Environmental Impact Assessment. Apennine Energy will submit the necessary documentation in the next few days.

Costa Del Sole is located in the southwest coastal region of Sicily in an area of known heavy oil discoveries and producing fields. The permit contains the Manfria-1bis oil discovery which flowed at a rate of 150 bopd and produced a cumulative 6,000 barrels during testing. It is estimated to contain P50 contingent resources of approximately 2 MMbo. An un-drilled prospect (Cielo) is adjacent to the discovery and could contain a similar resource if successfully drilled. Cielo appears to be in structural continuity with Manfria indicating a possible shared oil water contact and increased chance of hydrocarbon charge to the prospect. Both discovery and prospect are located approximately 10 km from the Gela field and heavy oil refinery. The forward strategy for the block would be to acquire, reprocess and interpret legacy seismic data in order to define drilling locations for possible appraisal and exploration wells.

Commenting on this announcement Gerry Orbell, Sound Oil's Chairman and CEO said:



"I am pleased that this award continues the expansion of the Apennine portfolio of appraisal and development assets and provides us with additional opportunities for early drilling and revenue generation."

The newly awarded Costa Del Sole permit is found in a known heavy oil area in the southwest coastal region of Sicily, where there are a number of established oilfields and discoveries. Nearby is the Gela field and heavy oil refinery.
There permit contains two key assets, the Manfria discovery and the un-drilled Cielo prospect.

Meanwhile the adjacent Cielo prospect it thought to contain a similar resource, if successfully drilled.
"I am pleased that this award continues the expansion of the Apennine portfolio of appraisal and development assets and provides us with additional opportunities for early drilling and revenue generation, said chief executive Gerry Orbell.
The permit award was made by the Department of Energy of the Sicily Region and it is subject to the submission and acceptance of an Environmental Impact Assessment, which will be submitted in the next few days, Sound Oil said.
After that the company plans to acquire, reprocess and interpret legacy seismic data so that it can define drilling locations for possible appraisal and exploration wells.

Sound Oils Orbell highlights progress and looks forward to exciting drilling in coming months

The group has plenty of cash, with 11.4 million in the bank at the end of June, and it is preparing to kick off a significant drill programme in the coming months.
In this mornings interim results Sound Oil (LON:SOU) chairman and chief executive Gerry Orbell highlighted the group substantial progress in recent months, which has see the group add another dimension to its business.

Central to this was the March acquisition of Consul Oil & Gas which owned a portfolio of assets in Italy. The deal immediately added some diversity to the groups operations, which at that point was solely focused on Indonesia.

Since then the group has added a number of other Italian assets, the most recent example was this the award of the Costa Del Sole permit in Sicily, which was announced this morning.

Importantly the group has plenty of cash, with 11.4 million in the bank at the end of June, and it is preparing to kick off a significant drill programme in the coming months.

Sound is well funded and has an exciting exploratory programme ready to start in the Autumn, Gerry Orbell said in this mornings results statement.

We have acquired some very interesting acreage over the last few months which we are now focused on developing while continuing to consider additional opportunities for growth.

I am particularly pleased to announce that Sound has become a drilling operator in Italy for the first time allowing us to control the pace of our activities.

The first well in Sounds exciting drill programme will be the Casa Tiberi-1 well in Italy, which is expected to spud in October. This will be the first of three wells in Italy during this programme of work.

Meanwhile the Sungai-Lahei-1 well, on the Salamander Energy operated Bangkanai PSC, will be the first of five wells in Indonesia. It will be spudded in November, Sound said.

This deep well will be turned into the first production well in the shallower overlying Kerendan gas field, Orbell explained.

Another key focus of the Indonesian drill programme will be the Citarum PSC, in which Sound has a 20 per cent stake. Three wells will be drilled by its partner Pan Orient Energy Citarum.

During the reporting period Sound spent 600,000 on exploration and 1.3 million on administration. Additionally there was the 500,000 spent in relation the Italian acquisitions and there was a 600,000 unrealised foreign exchange loss.

Sound Oil an opportunity for speculative investors - Faraday Research
2:16 pm by Jamie Ashcroft In a note to clients Faraday equity analyst David Lowery issued a buy recommendation on the stock, following the groups interim results statement this morning.
At the current price Sound Oil (LON:SOU) shares offer speculative investors an opportunity to get a position in a fairly valued and well run micro-cap explorer ahead of drilling, according to analysts at Faraday Research.

In a note to clients Faraday equity analyst David Lowery issued a buy recommendation on the stock, following the groups interim results statement this morning.

Addressing investors in the results statement Sound Oil chairman and chief executive Gerry Orbell highlighted the group's substantial progress in recent months, which has seen it add another dimension to its business.

Central to this was the March acquisition of Consul Oil & Gas which owned a portfolio of assets in Italy. The deal immediately added some diversity to the groups operations, which at that point was solely focused on Indonesia.

"As often happens, the share price was driven by intense speculation after the Consul acquisition, peaking near 6.5p before declining back over the summer to pre-acquisition levels, Faradays David Lowery said in a note to clients.

With the shares now back at 2.2p, (we) believe that with drilling set to start on several projects, (including the new award in Sicily), the explorer offers speculative investors a chance to take a position in a fairly valued and well run micro-cap explorer.

Since the Consul acquisition the group has added a number of other Italian assets, the most recent example was this the award of the Costa Del Sole permit in Sicily, which was announced this morning.

Importantly the group has plenty of cash, with 11.4 million in the bank at the end of June, and it is preparing to kick off a significant drill programme in the coming months.

We have acquired some very interesting acreage over the last few months which we are now focused on developing while continuing to consider additional opportunities for growth.

I am particularly pleased to announce that Sound has become a drilling operator in Italy for the first time allowing us to control the pace of our activities.

The first well in Sounds "exciting" drill programme will be the Casa Tiberi-1 well in Italy, which is expected to spud in October. This will be the first of three wells in Italy during this programme of work.

Meanwhile the Sungai-Lahei-1 well, on the Salamander Energy operated Bangkanai PSC, will be the first of five wells in Indonesia. It will be spudded in November, Sound said.

This deep well will be turned into the first production well in the shallower overlying Kerendan gas field, Orbell explained.

Another key focus of the Indonesian drill programme will be the Citarum production sharing contract (PSC), in which Sound has a 20 per cent stake. Three wells will be drilled by its partner Pan Orient Energy Citarum.

During the reporting period, Sound spent 600,000 on exploration and 1.3 million on administration. Additionally there was the 500,000 spent in relation the Italian acquisitions and there was a 600,000 unrealised foreign exchange loss.
