DENVER, CO--(Marketwire - August 28, 2007) - New Frontier Energy, Inc. (OTCBB : NFEI ), a
natural resource company engaged in the exploration, acquisition and
development of oil and gas properties in the United States, announced today
that gross production at the Slater Dome CBM Field has averaged 970 Mcf
per day through August 25th, the date of the last field report.
August gross production represents an increase of approximately 38%,
compared to the June 2007 period, which averaged 700 Mcf per day. The
increased production at Slater Dome is primarily a result of a work over
program of our existing producing nine wells initiated in June and
completed in July 2007. Production during the six month period preceding
the work over program averaged 250 Mcf per day. New Frontier Energy
continues the completion stages of six new wells drilled during the 2007
summer program. The work includes fracture stimulating, as well as running
gathering lines to the central compressor. The company executed a lease
agreement to add an additional four stage compressor at the central
compressor site capable of meeting the ramp up in gas production
anticipated as a result of the new wells.
"The completion portion of our 2007 development program is moving ahead on
schedule," said Paul Laird, President of New Frontier Energy, Inc. "Gas
production from our six new wells is expected to begin during October.
While the initial volumes may be nominal, we anticipate production will
rise significantly at the Slater Dome CBM Field as dewatering continues,
and new wells are added into production which tends to enhance desorption
at existing wells located nearby."
