Company Acquires 50% Operational Interest in 34,600 Gross Acres in Five Oil Concessions in Onshore Brazil Espírito Santo Basin
Petro-Victory Energy Corp, an acquirer and developer of oil and gas assets, has just announced the acquisition of a 50% stake in five (5) exploration concessions located in the Espírito Santo Basin, onshore Brazil. The acquisition of Imetame Energia (“Imetame,” a subsidiary of the Imetame Group) is subject to approval by the Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (“ANP”).
The five concessions are the Company’s first assets in the mature and producing Espírito Santo Basin and represent a substantial increase in the Brazilian concession area participation. Petro-Victory’s assignment costs are estimated at US$ 440,000 and will be funded from the company’s US$ 10 million line. Imetame will remain the operator in this joint venture.
Each concession is highly prospective, low risk, and oil-prone. In certain concession areas, oil has been discovered and flowed to the surface. Further details on work programs, breakdown of mapped resources in each concession, and other relevant E&P data will be provided pending ANP approval.
