Turner Valley Signs Joint Venture Agreement to Drill in Mississippi and Louisiana
Turner Valley Oil and Gas (OTCBB: TVOG) is
very pleased to announce that it has entered into an Agreement to acquire a
working interest in multiple zones of potential oil and gas production in
Mississippi and Louisiana. This Agreement contemplates up to a 50 well
drill program for Wilcox and Frio wells, at the Company's option, within
the defined area of mutual interest (AMI). The AMI includes over 300,000
gross acres located contiguously between Southwest Mississippi and North
East Louisiana.
Turner Valley has agreed to pay 10% of all prospect fees, mineral leases,
surface leases, and drilling and completion costs to earn a net 8% of all
production from all producible zones to the base of the Frio formation
(Frio Targets); and, 7.5% of all production to the base of the Wilcox
formation (Wilcox Targets). All working interests will be registered in
the name of Turner Valley Oil and Gas Inc.
The Joint Participation Agreement and Joint Lands Agreements are between
Turner Valley Oil and Gas Inc. and Griffin & Griffin Exploration LLC (G&G)
of Jackson, Mississippi. G&G has enjoyed a solid reputation as an Oil and
Gas Explorer and Producer for over 40 years in Mississippi and Louisiana.
Pursuant to these Agreements, Turner Valley Oil and Gas Inc. will benefit
from over 2,000 miles of seismic records and all pipeline infrastructure.
G&G will conduct the two proposed drilling programs and has been appointed
the Operator of all joint properties. The Company expects drilling to
commence during the first week of September 2006. All proposed drill
locations on the first 20 wells are within tie-in range of existing
pipeline infrastructures.
This project has met the Company's risk tolerance criteria and further
advances the Company's business plan.
