****JDA UPDATE ON DRILLING****

I just spoke with Sam at JDA. Here is what he just told me:

"Drilling has been completed in JDZ blocks 2 and 4 and the Deepwater Pathfinder is now in JDZ Block 3 drilling the Lemba prospect. The Deepwater Pathfinder will then go back to Block 4 JDZ. Results of the drilled wells will be known before end of this year, 2009. Source said results look to be extremely positive. "

"Drilling in JDZ Blocks 2 & 4 have went without incident. Very positive. The JDZ is "very optimistic and excited" about early results. The kinds of sands they have encountered in drilling blocks 2 & 4 indicates they have hit oil. And the gas was on top in each and oil below. JDA commented: "things are looking up".
The idea that early indications suggested blocks 2 & 4 were looking much more successful than Block 1 Chevron Obo-1 drilling drew enthusiastic agreement from JDA source. Results will for certain be announced released in 4th quarter this year – that is all 3 Blocks 2,3,4 will be announced. "
