BRIEF-Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. Receives Regulatory Approval For Strategic Recompletion Project In Israel
Reuters
9 mins ago
Zion Oil and Gas Inc (ZNOG.NaE):
* ZION OIL & GAS, INC. RECEIVES REGULATORY APPROVAL FOR STRATEGIC RECOMPLETION PROJECT IN ISRAEL
* ZION OIL AND GAS INC (ZNOG.NaE) - ZION OIL & GAS TARGETS EARLY 2024 TO MOVE FORWARD WITH MJ-01 RECOMPLETION OPERATIONS Source text for Eikon: Further company coverage:
I think the point is they always come up with a reason to delay. And Webslinger is right, they have done nothing for the past year for the eight million they received from the shareholders. As for your question, specifically, Hezbollah targets civilians, not farmers fields. How many Hezbollah rockets have landed at Megiddo?
As for delays over the last twenty years, rather than give you a laundry list of the delays that they have come up with, let's take just one example, and you can explain it too me. They issued a press release stating that the start of the 3D testing had to be delayed six months because of the start of the rainy season? Well, the rainy seasons in Israel are six months apart, so they issued a press release stating they had to delay the start of the 3D tests, because of the rainy season, until the next rainy season!
They pick any reason that sounds good, to delay. And in the case I cited, even though their "work" is entirely outdoors in Israel, they flat out didn't know the first thing about the weather in Israel, that the rainy seasons are six months apart. So they issued a press releasing saying they wanted to delay the start of their 3D testing because of the rainy season, for six months, until the next rainy season. Pure BS from Zion Oil, plus a complete lack of knowledge of the only country they work at. There is no explanation for this, except to keep you guys hanging on.
Do you think they should be working with rockets flying over their heads?
Engaging with such crazy statements is a total waste of time. Sinonara!
They haven't done much work at all since the COVID 19 excuse (2020), and Thursday begins Hanukkah week, which means nothing more out of them until after the New Year. Most likely we will hear from them this Thursday night, we could use a pump about now. Hitting the road running, yeah, right!
A pinch of work every few years...
<< So they should work for nothing? >>
And what "work" are they actually doing? The answer is basically nothing. There hasn't been any real progress with the company for about a year.
They probably laid off all of the actual workers on the rig a long time ago. But you want them to receive their extravagant salaries and benefits for doing nothing? Why should they be any different than the "blue-collar" rig workers?
Hit the nail on the head married50.
So they should work for nothing? That makes about as much sense as it being an Affinity scam. Just one more post based on zero credibility.
Unfortunately, it would be illegal to furlough a group of 17 "workers" whose median and average age is 74, in a way such that the company doesn't have to pay severance, unemployment, retirement, and other golden parachutes benefits that they are legally obligated to pay. A "legal" furlough which paid the workers what they are entitled would save exactly nothing. Which was the point of my previous posts showing the actual ages of the 17 senior staff and board members. ZION OIL CAN'T AFFORD TO TERMINATE OR FURLOUGH anyone!
And with the average age being 74, boy, would that age discrimination class action employee lawsuit ever be brutal, especially if you tried to furlough any of their senior lawyers on staff!
Way to much logic. Did you really think all those people getting paid are in this for JB's vision? I believe no salary and they all leave the company, despite getting paid to essentially raise money, all these years.
How dare you say these comments? You stock shorter you! 🤦♂️
😉
LOLOL...I knew better than to gamble on this fraud. I'm just an amused spectator.
<< isn’t it true that most funds raised now will go towards paying their salaries and, if the war is prolonged for quite awhile, none of this new money will ever be spent on actual drilling? Is it accurate to say that?
BINGO!
Salaries for executives and board members should be put on furlough until the war is over and they can start drilling again.
Typo: I’m NOT trying to be mean spirited when I say this . . . (Sorry)
I’m trying to be mean spirited when I say this, but isn’t it true that most funds raised now will go towards paying their salaries and, if the war is prolonged for quite awhile, none of this new money will ever be spent on actual drilling? Is it accurate to say that?
You...Bruce ....Homebrew..... you are not here trying to warn people.
you are here to make money off of fluxuations.....nothing more
You are not warning people because you are kind or thoughtful - you are here to make money and even $0.06 cents per share you are making something.
Merry Christmas to you and all of yours.
Oh I know, I voted against it.
The whales own it for now, but at these prices, they are not buying, so who is?
<< 600 million shares now >>
and 1.2 BILLION aurhorized....
Us old timers have lost monies. Why? Non commercial oil up to now. We knew that going in. Your still here for other reasons and it 'burns' you that the rig is still there and the company is still around.
It would make me happy if the reentry to MJ1 produces oil, not to make the monies back but to just make you mad.
Will they? Dunno, lots of stuff going on in that area.
Us old timers have been patient, it's not our timing that counts anyway...
Oil is there, Just as in the Bakken, getting it out commercially is the trick. We have 3 more years to try and no matter how much you complain, we move forward.
600 million shares now...wow, that's a lot of dilution, but they are still trying.
Heck, I might add some shares but I doubt it at this point.
It's holding 5+cents very well for now....and true nothing is happening that I know of, but the rig is there, I know as I saw it late August. Glad I was not there for what is going on now.
One thing you would have to admit though, it's a resilient company.
Old timers who bought over $1 are not going to get their money back, no matter how much they pump, so it's a mystery to me why they would pump this and bring that same misery to others.
Yes, I believe it's very likely this stock will go to 8 or 9 cents a share when Zion Oil dumps "staged" photos of the work going on at the work site, but the days of photographing muddy puddles around the worksite, implying they are oil, are over. So a surge in price to 8 cents, maybe pumped up to 9 cents, isn't really going to help any of the old timers. So why do they do it?
Well, you know the old saying:
"Misery Loves Company!"
Do you support people getting swindled in scams like ZNOG?
And Bashers and Shorters always pull the same tricks.......so apparent
and they do it all for the same cause......so that others won't get swindled as well....
ZNOG's like televangelism scams...but stockevangelism.... grifters promising riches based on faith in a fraud.
Let me ask a question..... if you bought $1 Million worth of shares ...... at $0.06 per share
and then it went up to $0.12 per share.....
you sold at $0.12 per share....did you double your money?
Well maybe because it's true......
and they also know it
LOLOL...Scams love blaming "bashers" and "shorts"🤣
No one shorts a stock at 6¢ - the expense to set up the position would outweigh any potential profit that could be made.
As for "misinformation campaigns" go, how about all the times Zion Oil has claimed to have found oil?
It was not an insult ....it's a Noun / Definition
so if the shoe fits ...
ie.... Shorting is a strategy used when an investor anticipates that the price of a security will fall in the short term.
What Is a Stock Basher?
The term stock basher refers to a person who engages in market manipulation to make the price of an asset fall. Stock bashers rely on misinformation campaigns to decrease confidence in a stock, leading to an undervaluation of that security.
Porgie used to brag how ZN was a Gift because of the price fluxuations
LOLOL...Shorter nonsense. Nobody has any originality in their lame insults these days. Try harder.
I am so relieved that soon Oil will be a thing of the past with the EV's taking the lead in Car sales
I'm not the only one.....
just like you are not the only Shorter on this board
Take down important info because YOU are tired of it?
Totalling a gallon? Religious nut-job affinity scam fleecing investors.
Don't be silly. About six years ago when Zion Oil declared they found oil at MJ#1, the stock rose to a high of $6 a share. It is now below 6 cents a share, and nothing has changed. Why the decline? If you have a better explanation for the 99% decline in stock price, I'd like to hear it.
So "WHEN" are we going to take down this Post ????
It is my opinion that I am getting tired looking at it.
They have found oil on numerous times.....however the porosity of the surrounding strata will not allow the oil to flow in production levels.
If the new Fracking Technology is ever allowed by the Israeli Oil Minister - Israel will have approx. the same amount of Oil that Saudi Arabia has.
I attempted to post this information but it was taken down several times
Zion Oil is a company that has claimed numerous times over the years to have found oil, yet has never actually found oil.
Now here would be an interesting statistic:
How many times has Zion reported finding oil over the years?
A post with a good answer to that question, just might replace the currently pinned post...
Well it is my opinion that the Pinned Post has fermented way too long on this Board and should be taken down.
It was a message that was in response to another post which inferred that Zion Oil's failure to find oil was the fault of other parties.
"The parties that want to see Zion Oil fail are still around, the names change but the message does not."
Zion Oil's failure to find oil rests with no one but Zion Oil.
<< So [a moderator] is allowed to 'PIN" [their] post for How long now ???? >>
A pinned post will stay up as long as the person is a mod (or until they remove it or replace it with another post).
Most anyone can apply to be a mod and then pin a post that they feel is important.
<< I "THOUGHT" Moderators were "SUPPOSED" to be "UNBIASED" in their actions ? >>
Yes, when marking posts for removal. But they are still allowed to have their own opinions.
So Porgy is allowed to 'PIN" his post for How long now ????
And Porgy is a Moderator ??? Oh great ....
I guess I always saw it and just ignored it, but to a new buyer or someone doing research and there is the first post.
What does that say ?
I would say that we have seen this PINNED POST for far too long and that it should be taken down.
And I "THOUGHT" Moderators were "SUPPOSED" to be "UNBIASED" in their actions ?
Am I incorrect on this ?
It is a pinned post. Each mod is allowed to pin one post.
How and Why is this Post still topping this Message Board.
August of 2019 ? Puullllease.
No one skeptical of ZN's business plan has Porgie Tirebiter 08/24/19 6:01 PM Post# 33166 of 53656
What particular significance does it hold ??? It only has 2 thumbs up and yet it has been up for more than 4 years ??
Or is it reposted without updated date ???
Can somebody please explain this to me ???
Yep, still here. Been keeping myself behind the scenes, tired of all the negativity from certain individuals. However, I have been still purchasing shares when the price would hit the lows. Heading into the 200,000 shares amount. I will either ride this until it hits the lows of 0 or sell when it hits well above $10. Either way, Israel will get 10% of the amount I sell at.
Bruce....how old are you ???
Glad you’re still here.
Loaded up to my old levels!!
Been patient for years and I am okay with that. I am on G-Ds timeline.
Same here! Never would have imagined I would have this many jars ready for oil. Some of us are very virtuous if what they say about patience is true.

ABOUT ZION OIL AND GAS COMPANY
Zion Oil & Gas is a U.S.-based corporation formed under Delaware law, exploring for oil and gas in Israel on licensed and permitted areas of approximately 99,000 acres located onshore between Tel Aviv and Haifa. Click on below link to find out more about Zion Oil & Gas.
COMPANY INFORMATION
In 1985, during a visit to Israel, John M. Brown (our founder and CEO) became inspired and dedicated to finding oil and gas in Israel, and he started the process that led to the Joseph Project. During the next fourteen years he made several trips each year to Israel, hired oil and gas consultants in Israel and Texas, met with Israeli government officials, made direct investments with local exploration companies, and assisted Israeli exploration companies in raising money for oil and gas exploration in Israel. This activity led Mr. Brown, together with others who had assisted him during those years, to form Zion Oil and Gas, Inc. in April 2000 in order to receive the award of a small onshore petroleum license from the Israeli government. Upon its formation, Mr. Brown and the others contributed to Zion all of the technical, economic, legal and financial data they had accumulated over the years relating to oil and gas exploration in Israel. We were reincorporated in Delaware on July 9, 2003. Though we have been around a long time, support for Israel, it is similar to the recent phenomena of social and ethical investing,where in crowd fundraising and otherwise people can choose investments which match their social & political, etc., outlook. To our knowledge those groups are not discriminatorily targeted because of their beliefs.

.
Nature of Operations as of November 2018
Zion Oil & Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation is an oil and gas exploration company with a history of 18 years of oil & gas exploration in Israel. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has no revenues from its oil and gas operations.
Zion maintains its corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. We also have branch offices in Caesarea, Israel and Geneva, Switzerland. The purpose of the Israel branch is to support the Company’s operations in Israel, and the purpose of the Switzerland branch is to operate a foreign treasury center for the Company.
Exploration Rights/Exploration Activities
The Company currently holds one active petroleum exploration license onshore Israel, the Megiddo-Jezreel License, comprising approximately 99,000 acres. The Megiddo Jezreel #1 (“MJ #1”) site was completed in early March 2017, after which the drilling rig and associated equipment were mobilized to the site. Performance and endurance tests were completed, and the MJ #1 exploratory well was spud on June 5, 2017, ahead of the June 30, 2017 deadline under the then-existing license terms. The MJ #1 well has been drilled to a total depth (“TD”) of 5,060 meters (approximately 16,600 feet). Thereafter, the Company obtained three open-hole wireline log suites (including a formation image log) and the well was successfully cased and cemented. The Ministry of Energy approved the well testing protocol on April 29, 2018. Testing of the well is ongoing and the Company expects that testing will be concluded in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Depending on the final outcome and results of the current MJ #1 well and having adequate cash resources, multiple wells could be drilled from this pad site as several subsurface geologic targets are reachable using directional well trajectories.
Megiddo-Jezreel Petroleum License, No. 401 (“MJL”)
The MJL was awarded on December 3, 2013 for a three-year primary term through December 2, 2016, with the possibility of additional one-year extensions up to a maximum of seven years. The MJL lies onshore, south and west of the Sea of Galilee, and the Company continues its exploration focus here as it appears to possess the key geologic ingredients of an active petroleum system with significant exploration potential. In late November 2016, The State of Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner officially approved Zion’s drilling date and license extension request.
On October 30, 2017, the Company sought a multi-year extension to its existing license. After receiving feedback from Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner, the Company submitted a revised extension request on November 9, 2017. On November 20, 2017, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner officially approved the Company’s multi-year extension request on its Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401, extending its validity to December 2, 2019. Until recently, the Company remained subject to the following updated key license terms:
No. | Activity Description | Execution by: | ||
1 | Submit final report on the results of drilling | 31 May 2018 | ||
2 | Submit program for continuation of work under license | 30 June 2018 |
On June 1, 2018, Zion submitted its Megiddo-Jezreel #1 End of Well Report (EOWR) for the MJL, thus fulfilling our item No. 1 Final Report license work plan obligation, shown above.
On June 14, 2018 Zion submitted its Application for Extension of Continued Work Program Due Date on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 . The additional time was necessary because the Company had still not completed testing and evaluating all planned testing zones. On July 1, 2018, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner granted Zion’s work program report extension to November 1, 2018, as shown below.
No. | Activity Description | Execution by: | ||
1 | Submit program for continuation of work under license | 1 November 2018 |
On October 23, 2018 Zion submitted its Application for Extension of Continued Work Program Due Date on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 . The additional time was necessary because the Company had still not completed testing and evaluating all planned testing zones. On October 28, 2018, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner granted Zion’s work program report extension to January 31, 2019.

Notes from November 20, 2018 Operational Update:
Given the thermal gradient, flow rates, surface pressure and low salinity, certain ministries within the Israeli government have made requests of Zion concerning the use of the well as a water monitoring well. Zion will review the economic impact and obligations as a result of this request to determine a prudent plugging plan.
•Zone 4;
?1,784-1,775 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.
•Zone 5:
?1,232.5-1,228 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.

Zion Oil & Gas Purchases Drilling Rig for Israel Operations
Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZN) announces they (i) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement on March 12, 2020, for a drilling rig, drill pipe, and related equipment for $5.6 million in cash, and (ii) closed that purchase on March 12, 2020, the same day, by Bill of Sale from the seller to Zion.
On March 13, 2020, Zion paid the seller $4.6 million in cash and remitted the remaining $1.0 million in cash to an escrow agent to be held pending completion of acceptance testing of the rig upon its arrival in Israel.
“This is a new era for Zion and a positive step forward for our 2020 exploration plans,” Zion’s COO, Robert Dunn said. “With our asset based in the State of Israel, our planning and flexibility will become more robust.”
“We believe this is the right time for this to happen,” stated Zion’s President, Bill Avery. “Having cash budgeted and available for the purchase of this rig shows the strong support of our shareholders and evidence of God’s faithfulness.”
The rig is a 1600 horsepower AC Top Drive equipped rig with a twin 1600 horsepower mud pump system with a depth capability of 20,000 ft. The rig will be equipped with almost 15,000 ft of heavy 5” drill pipe along with associated well control equipment and inventory.
Actual rig pictured above. Currently stacked awaiting shipment to Israel. 1600 horsepower AC Top Drive equipped rig capable of 20,000ft depth.
The rig underwent a full CAT III & IV certification in late 2017, reassuring the quality of the rig and ancillary equipment, and it has drilled two wells since certification.
The rig and equipment will be imported into Israel from Romania, where the Drilling Rig is currently stored.
The State of Israel has currently imposed travel restrictions relating to the Coronavirus outbreak, including a requirement that any person arriving in Israel, including the operating crew for the rig, will currently need to undergo a two-week quarantine.
In addition, the ports of entry into Israel through which the rig will need to enter, may be undergoing work disruptions on account of the virus outbreak. Accordingly, it is not possible at the present time to accurately estimate the time or resources that may be necessary to import the Drilling Rig onto the well site or any delay arising as a consequence of the outbreak.
Zion Oil & Gas, a public company traded on NASDAQ (ZN), explores for oil and gas onshore in Israel on their 99,000-acre Megiddo-Jezreel license area.

ZN MJ#1 well finds active petroleum system that is not commercially productive. 3-D seismic testing in progress.
Zion Oil and Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which has an active petroleum exploration license onshore Israel, the Megiddo-Jezreel License (“MJL”), comprising approximately 99,000 acres, announces that it has completed the testing program of its primary zones located within the Jurassic and Cretaceous-age Formations of the Megiddo-Jezreel #1 (MJ #1) well. As a result of the testing, Zion has determined that the well is not commercially productive.
Given the thermal gradient, flow rates, surface pressure and low salinity, certain ministries within the Israeli government have made requests of Zion concerning the use of the well as a water monitoring well. Zion will review the economic impact and obligations as a result of this request to determine a prudent plugging plan.
•Zone 4;
1,784-1,775 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.
•Zone 5:
1,232.5-1,228 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.
