Carson City, Nevada. April 3, 2008. Victory Energy Corporation (OTCBB:VYEY - News) announced today receipt of the second revenue payment from natural gas sales from wells producing in Victory’s Canyon Sandstone Gas play, located in the Texas Permian Basin.
The revenue, of approximately $58,400, pre-distribution, represents sales of 12,449 MCF of natural gas production from Victory’s interest in six gas wells. The revenue was based on January 2008 natural gas pricing of $6.9481 per MCF. This revenue number will continue to grow each month as a result of higher pricing in the following months and the continuation of more wells going on-line. The BTU content averaged 1.2170, which is a 21% higher BTU content than the average for natural gas. Revenue for this period is lower than anticipated due to a loss of nine (9) production days as a result of equipment failure and weather conditions.
Jon Fullenkamp, President of Victory Energy Corporation stated, "The project continues to exceed our expectations, despite the nine days of lost production. With higher gas pricing already in the pipeline, the return on investment is exciting to our funding partners.”
The drilling rig on well #166-9 is at a depth of 4,610 feet and should reach total depth by April 6. Logs should be completed by April 7 and after evaluation, the decision to set pipe will be made. Once the cement has had time to cure after setting pipe, both wells #166-9 and #166-8 will be stimulated with a frac job on the same day, which is scheduled to be completed by April 16.
