About the Joropo Concession
The Joropo Concession consists of two blocks: the development and the exploration blocks. An oil discovery was drilled on the development block, which is the Ojo de Tigre-2 ST well. The well was preliminary tested, and test produced 6,972 barrel of 29.5-degree API crude at a steady rate of 240 barrels of oil per day.
Proven non-producing reserve is assigned to the formation at 7,363 feet in the Ojode Tigre-2 ST well using a recovery factor of 25 per cent for proven reserve. Proven plus probable reserve is assigned with a recovery factor of 35 per cent. The structural mapping of the formation has a closure of 279 acres and can support additional development of two wells.
On the exploration side, from 3-D seismic data and interpretation, the owner has identified two well prospects. The Turon prospect shows three potential oil zones in the C7, Mirador and Gacheta formations. The Joropo Norte prospect shows the C7 and Mirador formations are potential oil zones.
Green Power has a 100-per-cent working interest and is the operator of the Joropo block under the exploration and production contract Joropo. The contract area is 14,966 hectares (36,982 acres), and the E&P Joropo contract was signed by the Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos -- Colombia (ANH) -- with Green Power. The concession is located in the Department of Casanare, Colombia, in a major oil-producing region of Colombia close to major oil fields, close to pipelines, and is located in an area where the landowners permit oil and gas exploration and development.
