NXPN...
The natural gas well was drilled, cased, completed and stimulated in the Wolfcamp Canyon Sandstone Formation. Upon tie-in to the pipeline infrastructure, the well has been producing gas since May of 2009 at daily rates of 200 MCF per day.
Estimates of gas reserves associated with this well are approximately 0.5 BCF. The gas is sold under a purchase agreement with Eagle Rock Energy and is currently priced at a bid-week production price of $4.04 per MCF.
This initial well is the first of 20 wells that will be drilled and completed on the leased acreage. Further details will be announced to stakeholders regarding the timing of the on-going development plan at the Ozona Project.
NXPN...SCOTTSDALE, AZ--Northern Explorations Ltd. (OTCBB: NXPN) ("Northern," "Norex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has acquired its first gas well at the Ozona gas project, Crockett County, Texas as part of its acquisition agreement with Dominus Energy AG.
The gas well is included as part of the package acquired at the Ozona Project by the Company and provides Norex with a current producing asset with daily gas production sales. Northern Explorations d.b.a. Norex Energy is therefore in production at Ozona.
NXPN...Norex Energy (Northern Explorations Ltd.) is an energy exploration Company currently developing natural gas projects across North America. The Company has acquired working interests in natural gas assets located in Texas as well as projects in California and Alberta, Canada. The projects contain documented gas reserves and associated plant, pipeline and infrastructure currently in place.
NXPN...Norex also acquires a network of 5, six-inch natural gas pipelines that connect to a major trunk line operated by Encana and that extend towards three gas wells ready for tie-in. The final permitting application process and licensing of the plant will be completed shortly, thereby allowing Norex to put the project on line and to commence production. Further details will be announced as they become available.Norex is currently finalizing the Purchase and Sale Agreements with the vendor to complete the aforementioned transaction and anticipates closing shortly with full details to be announced within 10 days.
NXPN...The most significant element to the acquisition and overall project development entails the gas processing plant which was originally constructed in 2004. The plant is capable of processing sour gas by a regenerative solution, as well as sweet gas compression, gas metering and water storage. The facility is a strategically key component to the downstream production of gas from the pipeline.
NXPN...On January 14th, Norex announced that the Company will acquire petroleum related assets in Alberta, Canada that include a 49% interest in a natural gas processing and compression facility; natural gas pipeline, additional infrastructure and certain lands associated to the infrastructure. This project has been found to have the potential to contain over 8 BCF of natural gas. The Company also has the option to obtain the remaining 51% interest from the owner over a 2 year period.
NXPN...SCOTTSDALE, AZ -- Northern Explorations Ltd. (OTCBB: NXPN) ("Northern," "Norex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has recently been advised of key developments regarding pipeline construction activities at its Southern Alberta Gas Project.
The Company has been informed by the operator that they are now in receipt of the required environmental permits from both the Province and local regulatory authorities thereby allowing for the commencement of pipeline construction.
NXPN...IML’s new discovery to the southeast and the apparent strength of their wells lends even more credence to risking a test well on the anomaly. The production records reflect that FIML’s #3183 well, even after 22 months and producing over a BCF is still flowing at a rate of over 1300 MCFPD.
NXPN...It is also recommended that the deeper horizons be explored and evaluated. The hydrocarbon shows in the top of the Strawn Limestone in section 126 were impressive considering that 64 MCF per hour equates to 1500 MCF per day.
NXPN...In October of 2007 the Railroad Commission of Texas reduced the optional proration unit per Canyon well down to 10 acres with 1100-foot maximum diagonals. So there are now even more Canyon sandstone locations that can be drilled on the lease.
NXPN...Even a well with a low cumulative recovery of 150 MMCF will payout at today’s gas prices and forecasts are for those prices to increase. Combined with the majority of wells which should recover two or three times that figure, enough hydrocarbons can be produced just from the shallow “Canyon Sandstone” to payout the project and be very profitable.
NXPN...Considering the Canyon sandstones underlie the entire 9000-acre Ozona Gas Project lease and have yet to be found non-gas bearing it is recommended that a systematic drilling program be initiated to recover these significant remaining gas reserves.
In review of the production data from wells using the new stimulation techniques it appears that sufficient reserves can be produced by most all wells to ensure economical success.
NXPN...It too usually produces from structural traps and therefore is a good candidate to be evaluated on the aforementioned anomaly. Three miles to the northwest the Texas Company #1 Smith reportedly flowed gas at a rate of 5.5 MMCFPD from the Ellenburger but considering no gas outlet was available in 1948 the zone was abandoned.
NXPN...The Ordovician age Ellenburger Dolomite is also prospective at the Ozona gas Project. The Ellenburger is known as a very prolific producer all across south and west Texas and usually has significant per well recoveries exceeding five BCF when it is found productive.
NXPN...FIML has also permitted five new Strawn locations even closer to the southeast border of the Ozona Gas Project with one being in section 116 and 660 feet from the lease line. If these wells continue to produce as they are presently, their ultimate recoveries will be much greater than the average Strawn well.
NXPN...Two of the wells averaged 2000 MCFPD for their first few months of production with potentials of near 9000 MCFPD. The #3183 has produced 1.08 BCF in 22 months, the #2178 has produced 750 MMCF in 17 months, the #2183 has delivered 400 MMCF in 11 months and the #83M well has cumulative production of 108 MMCF in just its first three months.
NXPN...To the southeast two miles, FIML Natural Resources has recently discovered what is believed to be Strawn Limestone production. There are no logs available but the completion depths indicate Strawn as the producing horizon. Currently they have completed three wells in section 83 and one in section 78.
EWKS...Earthworks Entertainment (EWKE) announced today that the Sony Plaza-Style Company Ltd., the Japan based retail sales division of the Sony Group, reports that the first 2 weeks of sales for the acclaimed Suzy's Zoo brand more than doubled Sony Plaza's sales projections.
The Plaza-Style stores, which enjoy a customer base of 20 million consumers, introduced over 50 new Suzy's Zoo merchandise brand products through its group of over 100 retail stores throughout Japan on June 17th.
EWKS...A 26 x half-hour, music-themed series about two opposing teen hip-hop groups trying to hit the big time is currently in production, with guest stars from the real music world popping in from time to time. The members of hip-hop group Kansascali, for example, will star as animated characters in one episode of the 2-D animated tween series, as well as making a live appearance at the end of the show. Warr says the company plans to release a CD compilation of music from the toon, which may be packaged with the DVD.
EWKS...Merchandise will also be a key driver for Da Jammies, a concept that's being co-developed by Earthworks and Walnut, California's Toon Farm. The property will start life as a line of clothing (to be created by Nike designer Martin D. Woods) and toys (produced by Vacant, the here-today-gone-tomorrow chain of temporary urban stores). Vacant plans to roll out both product ranges in August, and DVD and TV entries will follow in Q4.
EWKS...Targeting the six to 12 set, Z-Force (26 x 22 minutes) is about 12 average guys and their high-flying animal alter egos (each one based on a different sign of the Chinese zodiac). The episodes will roll out on DVD in Q4 before hitting the TV programming market early next year. Warr also anticipates launching a trading card game in Q4, and is exploring the idea of packaging it with the DVDs.

SYMW...But PEM DMFCs have operational problems, the most notable of which is “methanol crossover”. The membrane in a PEM DMFC allows methane to cross over from the anode to the cathode side lessening efficiency by as much as 30%. Researchers have not been able to develop a PEM capable of eliminating crossover without increasing DMFC resistance and cost. The inherent engineering difficulties such as moisture and temperature control with PEM fuel cells coupled with the crossover problem of PEM DMFCs have led many to believe that portable, efficient and inexpensive fuel cells may be several years from commercialization.
SYMW...The advantages of the DFMC are obvious. Firstly, an expensive, complex and power hungry reformer is not required and, secondly, methanol is commonly available. Worldwide methanol production capacity in 2006 was approximately 43 million metric tonnes. DMFCs promise very simple construction, excellent power output, inexpensive and easy to handle fuel coupled with broad availability of the fuel.
SYMW...Researchers believe that the Direct Methanol Fuel Cell or DMFC presents the best opportunity for early commercialization of fuel cells. When a weak solution of methanol is fed to the carbon and platinum anode of a fuel cell, the methanol dissociates into H+, CO2 and electrons. The CO2 is vented off and the fuel cell is left with H+ and electrons similar to the process in hydrogen PEM fuel cells.
SYMW...It is possible to extract or produce hydrogen at the fuel cell from various fuels by using a system called a fuel reformer that forms part of the fuel cell system. Fuel reformers are complex, expensive and substantially reduce the efficiency of the fuel cell because some of the power produced by the fuel cell is required to power the reformer. In addition, there are often undesirable byproducts from the reformer.
SYMW...Although hydrogen is an excellent fuel, it has huge problems with respect to production, transportation and storage. It takes considerable energy and sophisticated equipment to produce hydrogen by electrolysis or from methanol, methane, propane or other petroleum products. Hydrogen is a gas and must be transported and stored under pressure. Most experts agree that it will be decades before sufficient infrastructure exists to allow the use of hydrogen as a fuel, yet hydrogen is what is needed in a fuel cell.
SYMW...Some heat is also produced but because there is no combustion taking place the heat is far less than that produced in an internal combustion engine.
In principle, a fuel cell operates like a battery. Unlike a battery, however, a fuel cell does not run down or require recharging. It will produce energy in the form of electricity and heat as long as fuel is supplied.
SYMW...As hydrogen flows into the fuel cell on the anode side, a platinum catalyst on the anode facilitates the separation of the hydrogen gas into electrons and protons (hydrogen ions). The hydrogen ions pass from the anode through the PEM and with the help of another platinum catalyst, combine with oxygen and electrons on the cathode side, producing water. The electrons, which cannot pass through the PEM, flow from the anode to the cathode through an external circuit containing a motor or other electric load, which consumes the power generated by the cell.
SYMW...Fuel cells typically consist of two electrodes, the anode and cathode. Sandwiched between the electrodes is an electrolyte, usually a solid Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) that is capable of conducting protons from the anode to the cathode. The anode side is enclosed by a fuel/water chamber while the cathode side is enclosed by a water/air chamber.
SYMW...A fuel cell can be two to three times more efficient than an internal combustion engine in converting fuel to power. A fuel cell produces electricity, water and heat using fuel and oxygen in the air. Water is the only emission when hydrogen is the fuel.
SYMW...A fuel cell is an electrochemical energy conversion device that produces electricity from hydrogen. Hydrogen is an element and has the simplest atomic structure of all elements, 1 proton and 1 electron. Electricity is the flow of electrons.
Simple hidrogen PEM fuel cell.
SYMW...SymPowerco, through its majority owned subsidiary Polygenic Power Systems, has acquired the rights to an advanced power producer, a Flowing Electrolyte Direct Methanol Fuel Cell and the rights to use advanced battery technologies in hybrid applications.
