According to the company, site arrangements are underway including permitting and requisite documentation in advance of the spud of this new well.

This well is a direct offset to the NOM-1H well, which began production last month and will involve a similar lateral drilling operation into the recently discovered Mississippi reservoir.

American Petro-Hunter has acquired full working interest participation in up to 11 additional horizontal wells within the play, and the leases in the horizontal play are being developed on 80-acre parcels.
