CALGARY, Jan. 14 /CNW/ - UNX Energy Corp. (TSX-V: UNX) ("UNX"), an
emerging oil and gas company with offshore interests in the Republic of
Namibia, has signed a 3D seismic contract with Petroleum Geo-Services
(OAX: PGS). UNX plans to acquire approximately 1,125 km(2) of 3D seismic on the 90%-owned Exploration Licence 2815, consisting of
Blocks 2815, 2816 and 2916, offshore Namibia. The program will target
various features on the blocks, and is expected to commence in
mid-February, 2011. The seismic program will be funded from proceeds
raised in July and November of 2010.
"The addition of this high-quality 3D seismic data to our existing
scientific information will provide further clarity on the size and
extent of the resources on our licences in offshore Namibia," said Mr.
Gabriel Ollivier, President and CEO of UNX Energy. "The 3D seismic data
will enhance scientific detail and add to our growing inventory of
drilling prospects. As part of our 2011 work program, the various
seismic surveys that will be conducted on our blocks will focus on
select areas of our acreage, updating existing resource estimates and
providing additional independent resource estimates on the blocks. The
seismic will also contribute to a data room and inventory of
drill-ready locations for companies interested in farm-in
opportunities. At approximately two times the minimum required work
commitment of 550 km(2), this 3D seismic program exceeds UNX's required work commitments for
the Exploration Licence."
