Holloman's Drilling Plans Progress
HOUSTON, TX -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- Holloman Energy Corporation (OTCQB: HENC) is pleased to confirm the November 1, 2012 escrow deposit of AUD$4,5000,000 by its farm-in partner on Petroleum Exploration Licenses ("PEL ") 112 and 444. The escrowed funds were required under Holloman's May 2012 farmout agreement on the licenses and are earmarked to pay for an initial three (3) well drill program.
Holloman is currently awaiting the interpretation of 127 square kilometers ("km2") of 3D seismic data acquired in September 2012 on PEL 112. Potential drill prospects are expected to be identified in late November 2012. It is anticipated that the first well will be drilled on PEL 112, subject to rig availability, in the first calendar quarter of 2013.
"The deposit of escrowed drilling funds sets the stage for pursuit of our drilling objectives," stated Mark Stevenson, Holloman CEO. "In light of the continued success of neighboring drilling efforts on the Cooper Basin's western flank, we are anxious to proceed with our exploration plans."
On PEL 444, Holloman and its partners are in the process of designing a 150 km2 3D seismic program for planned completion in 2013.
