Operations and Technology

SUGARLOAF HOSSTON PROJECT, TEXAS USA

Empyrean signed the original farm-in agreement with Houston based Texas Crude Energy Inc ("TCEI") on 6 April 2006. The Sugarloaf-1 well intercepted a secondary objective, the Austin Chalk, which is the gas-condensate producing reservoir of the Sugarkane field, the discovery well of which lies 6.6 km to the west of Sugarloaf-1.

The Sugarkane Field has potential recoverable reserves of more than 3 million cubic feet of gas and 500 million barrels of condensate. Its extent could encompass Blocks A and B in which Empyrean holds interests.

To date Empyrean has participated in the drilling of several wells in Block A and a number of wells in Block B. Initial estimates indicate the potential recoverable reserves attributable to each producing well could lie between 2-10 billion cubic feet of gas equivalent.

On September 21 2009 Empyrean Energy announced that TCEI, the operator of Block B, had been successful in its efforts to farm-out Block B to Hilcorp Energy Company, the fourth largest private E & P company in the US. Hilcorp has since successfully re-stimulated a number of existing Sugarloaf horizontal wells and drilled  several new wells at 100 per cent their cost to earn a 50 per cent interest in Block B, and will continue as operator.
