SAN ANTONIO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / October 23, 2017 / Camber Energy (NYSE American: CEI) ("Camber" or the "Company"), based in San Antonio, Texas, a growth-oriented, independent oil and gas company engaged in the development of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids in the Hunton formation in Central Oklahoma and on its lease holdings in the San Andres formation in the Permian Basin of Texas, announced updated production goals today.
The Company has immediately begun the process of reestablishing production from six natural gas wells in the Camber operated Coyle field, located in Payne County, Oklahoma. The workover process on these wells commenced last Wednesday. The Northern Shot well was the first well brought back online. Initial production from that well began last Friday. Work on the Coyle Field will continue uninterrupted until all six wells are back online which the Company estimates will take approximately two weeks. The Company estimates that an additional 1.8 thousand cubic feet (MCF) per day of natural gas liquid (NGL) rich natural gas will be produced from these workovers once the wells have been fully restored to their normal production levels.
"Propane C3+ through C8+, which Camber produces from many of its wells, is experiencing its seasonal upswing in pricing, which is great news for us. Getting production restored in the Coyle Field and other Company-owned assets is essential to our goal of achieving positive cash flow from operations, as quickly as possible, stated Richard N. Azar II, the Interim Chief Executive Officer of Camber, who continued, "Workovers are being performed on five additional wells which are operated by Equal Energy. We estimate that production to these wells will be restored next week. When these wells are operating at normal sustained levels, we estimate that they will produce an estimated 1.5 MCF/day. Camber owns varied interests from 9% to 30% working interest in these wells."
Mr. Azar continued, "Camber is currently in the process of reviewing its leasehold positions in central Oklahoma and plans to drill four, 100% owned wells on its Oklahoma acreage in calendar Q1 and Q2, 2018, funding permitting. In addition, the Company is actively pursuing additional leasehold acquisitions adjacent to its current PDP, for its planned drilling program for Q3 and Q4 of 2018, funding permitting."
