Stratex Oil & Gas Enters Into Joint Development Agreement to
Exploit Significant San Miguel Oil Resource in Zavala County, Texas
HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwired -
April 16, 2014) - Stratex Oil & Gas Holdings, Inc.
(OTCQB: STTX) (the "Company")
announced today that it has entered into a Joint Development
Agreement ("JDA"), dated as of April 11, 2014, by and among the
Company, Quadrant Resources LLC, ("Quadrant"), and Eagleford
Energy, Zavala Inc. ("EEZ"). Pursuant to the JDA, Quadrant has
agreed, at its sole cost and expense, to drill 3 wells and to
rework 5 wells to test the San Miguel formation (the "Phase I Work
Program") on an oil and gas lease covering 2,629 acres in Zavala
County, Texas (the "Matthews Lease"). Presently, each of Stratex
and EEZ has the rights to an undivided 50% working interest in the
Lease.
Quadrant's principals have extensive experience and success
drilling and completing medium to heavy oil resources on a global
basis. The focus of the JDA will be the commencement of primary San
Miguel oil production from a known oil interval underlying the
Little Tom Field, situated on the Matthews Lease. The San
Miguel formation is a massive, relatively shallow (2,600 to 2,800
feet) and well defined sandstone resource containing approximately
2 to 3 billion barrels of original oil in place ("OOIP"), as
estimated by the Bureau of Economic Geology and the University of
Texas. Managements of both Stratex and Quadrant believe that the
Matthews Lease contains approximately 150 million barrels of OOIP,
of which one-third (33.3%) is recoverable and will produce
utilizing primary production methodology. Drilling and rework
operations, expected to commence during this current quarter, are
initially contemplated utilizing 20 acre spacing, with density
potentially increasing to 10 acre spacing over time. This would
indicate a drilling inventory of approximately 200 locations on the
Matthews Lease. According to past Texas Railroad Commission
filings, approximately 97,000 barrels of oil from the San Miguel
formation have been previously produced from the Little Tom
Field.
Under the terms of the JDA, Stratex shall serve as Operator and
conduct the Phase I Work Program under the direction of Quadrant.
Quadrant has undertaken to cause the Phase I Work Program to be
completed by June 15, 2015. Provided that Quadrant has
satisfied certain conditions set forth in the JDA by that date,
Quadrant shall have earned the right to receive a conveyance of an
undivided 50% working interest in the Matthews Lease, but insofar
only as the Matthews Lease covers and includes the San Miguel
interval underlying the "Development Area". At such point in time,
Stratex and EEZ will each hold a 25% working interest in the
Development Area. With respect to 7 of the 8 Phase I Wells,
the Company has the right to receive 16.66% of the revenues before
Payout and 25.0% of the revenues after Payout. The Company will not
be entitled to participate in any revenues derived from the
reworking of the Matthews No. 3V Well.
Stephen Funk, CEO of Stratex stated, "We are quite excited to
enter into this JDA with Quadrant to exploit the highly scalable
potential of our San Miguel oil play, which we believe will add
significant upside to our core south Texas drilling operations. The
Company is now well positioned to achieve our previously stated
objectives; (i) to increase production and cash flow, (ii) to grow
organically through the drillbit and (iii) to create significant
value for all of our stakeholders."
