United American Petroleum Corp. Acquire Remaining 75% of Frio County Project
Austin, TX—November 8, 2011 – United American Petroleum Corp. (OTCBB: UAPC.OB) is pleased to announce it has purchased the remaining working interest of the Lozano lease in Frio County, Texas for a purchase price of $160,000. This purchase will provide United with 100% working interest in the Lozano lease, which should increase United’s revenues from this lease by three times. The project consists of 3 oil-producing wells sitting on 110 acres, with 20 acre spacing allowing potential offset drilling locations.
The project lies within the Western Gulf Province, an area which covers 116,599 sq mi., affording extensive data on several hundred thousand oil and gas wells. To date, 2,518 significant oil and gas fields comprising 3,883 reservoirs have been discovered in the region.
Over the past 20 years, the oil industry has experienced tremendous success in Frio County due to advances in oil-extraction technologies which permits horizontal drilling extending the primary producing formations, such as the Olmos B and Olmos D sands, which range in depth from 3,100 feet to 3,600 feet. The Austin Chalk, Navarro and Anacacho formations are also abundant in the area. Untapped reserves within the region have been demonstrated by the Kinder Morgan operated Yates Oil Field, which has yielded over 1.4 billion barrels and is expected to further produce 1 billion barrels.
Christian Negri, United American Petroleum’s Chief Financial Officer, stated, "This acquisition will augment our existing production in our Frio County Project and will provide the opportunity to exploit additional hydrocarbons on the acreage acquired.”
