Liberty Energy Announces New Acreage in Eastland County, Texas
06 August 2012 - 11:00PM
Liberty Energy Corp. (OTCBB:LBYE)
(
"Liberty" or "the Company") announces further
details on its new Texas acreage.
The Company is pleased to reveal further details on its newly
acquired acreage in Eastland County, Texas. The 112 acre lease is
located within Eastland County, approximately 80 miles west of Fort
Worth, Texas.
The Company has confirmed that there are two major producing
reservoirs that are widespread within this area. The first, Marble
Falls, a prolific oil and gas producing reservoir with production
being generated from several channel sands found within this Lower
Pennsylvanian formation. The second, Mississippian-Duffer
limestone, predominantly produces gas with some oil shows. The
Duffer formation lies unconformably below the Marble Falls
formation. Both zones are widespread in Eastland County and have
been highly productive throughout Texas Railroad Commission
District 7B.1
The (Mississippian) Barnet Shale is also present in this area.
Although its thickness is limited to approximately 50 feet in this
area, this geological structure is among the most prolific oil and
gas producing areas of Texas. This shale underlies the Duffer
Limestone, and is thought to be a source for much of the
hydrocarbon found in the reservoirs above.2
The Bend Arch has had a significant effect on the Barnett Shale
regarding its burial history and geo-thermal makeup. The Bend
Arch-Fort Worth Basin Province resulted in estimated means of 26.7
trillion cubic feet of gas (TCFG), 98.5 million barrels of oil
(MMBO), and a mean of 1.1 billion barrels of natural gas liquids
(BBNGL).3 Nearly all of the undiscovered gas resource (98 percent,
or 26.2 TCFG) is considered to be in continuous accumulations of
non-associated gas trapped in strata of two of the three
Mississippian-age Barnett Shale AUs of the Barnett-Paleozoic TPS.4
The third AU within this TPS, the Hypothetical Basin-Arch Barnett
Shale Oil AU, has not yet been quantitatively assessed because of a
lack of data.3 The Barnett-Paleozoic TPS is estimated to contain a
mean of 409.2 BCFG of conventional gas, or about 88 percent of all
undiscovered conventional gas, and about 64.6 MMB of conventional
oil, or about 65 percent of all undiscovered oil in the Bend
Arch-Fort Worth Basin Province.4
"We are extremely pleased to have secured this lease which is
situated in the heart of existing oil and natural gas fields. This
is a formation that has been consistently produced by majors for
years including Devon Energy, Chesapeak Energy and ConocoPhillips.
We intend to extensively study the surrounding fields and
formations in which oil and natural gas have been recovered. We
then intend to initiate a detailed geological study of the acreage
that will determine how we further develop the property," commented
Ian Spowart, CEO of Liberty Energy Corp. For more information on
