Eaglewood Energy Inc. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:EWD) announced today that it has received direction from the PNG Department of Petroleum and Energy ("DPE") to commence negotiations with the Petroleum Retention Licence 4 ("PRL 4") Joint Venture to unitize the Stanley Hydrocarbon Pool within PRL 4 with graticular block 1622 in the Corporation's Petroleum Prospecting Licence 259 ("PPL 259"), in Papua New Guinea. Recent mapping presented by the operator of PRL 4 indicates that a connected portion of the Stanley petroleum pool at Toro Reservoir level extends beyond PRL 4 and into Eaglewood's PPL 259, specifically graticular block 1622 in the northwest corner of the license. This interpretation is consistent with the Corporation's ongoing mapping studies. In May 2010, the Corporation lodged a letter with the DPE on behalf of the PPL 259 Joint Venture, requesting that the Minister consider the unitisation of PRL 4 and graticular block 1622 of PPL 259 prior to the establishment of a Petroleum Development Licence ("PDL") over the Stanley discovery. In April 2011, the DPE sent letters to both the Corporation and the PRL 4 operator requesting that both parties conduct discussions with a view to achieving a unitization plan by voluntary agreement. If unresolved, the DPE may elect, at the expense of both parties, for an independent consultant to propose a resolution acceptable to the parties, failing which the DPE has indicated that it will continue with its ongoing consideration of the Stanley Field Development Plan submitted by the PRL 4 Operator in February 2009, but will not consider any submission of a Petroleum Development Licence application, until the issue is resolved to the satisfaction of the DPE and the Minister has advised accordingly. CEO Brad Hurtubise commented "We are pleased to see the unitization discussions finally initiated, as the volume contained in our block may mean a material increase to our current contingent resource position. In light of the very successful Stanley-2 and Stanley-4 appraisal wells, the operator recently announced it expects the PDL will be awarded and a final investment decision made later this year, which means fast-track commercialisation of our share, once determined, of the unitized volume".
