Operational Update



Xtract Energy PLC makes the following operational update.





Denmark



Drilling of the Luna prospect on the 01/11 license is about to be completed.



The Luna well objective was to test the overall Rotliegendes play concept over licences 01/11 and 02/05. The Luna well location was picked in order to maximize the information gathered by the well and was designed to address a number of play uncertainties. The Luna well did not encounter hydrocarbons. The extensive new data obtained from drilling the Luna well will be analysed and integrated into the overall Rotliegendes play model covering the two licence areas.



Xtract has a 33 percent interest in licence 01/11, through it's wholly owned subsidiary Elko Energy A/S. Noreco is the operator for the licence with Danish North Sea Fund as the other partner.

duster sp down 30%+

I think investors can gather that from above

mitzy are you in this heap of s*** too.....

Signs of life....?

Things have been happening for the last few weeks :

Jan Nelson appointed CEO last wek, preluding to changes on the direction of the company

Soon an IPO at GOS, were XTR have a stake ( Julia Creek ).

Rising with some large trades, volume reaches 23 millions

They've managed to attract some pretty impressive people to the board with a sound track record. That wouldnt happen without a reason.

With Global and Chevron in the background a complete reshuffle and diveristy to portfolio, this is going places. All looking very positive

Fingers crossed - it's been a long, slow and tortuous journey Southwards over the years.

They have a plan once they get rid of the bulk of Julia Creek..too messy that stuff. Let them tell us!
