The recommencement of production from the field follows the completion of a workover program on the A0311 #1 well and reactivation of the associated gas sales pipeline.

Initial production levels from the field are 336 barrels of oil per day and 3.2 million cubic feet of gas per day.

The company said that the Little Bay Field had been shut-in since mid-2009 due to down stream problems with the third party owned and operated pipeline and gathering system servicing the field.

Saratoga Resources is an exploration and production company with offices in Houston, Texas and Covington, Louisiana.
