Platina Energy Upgrades Oil Collection System on its Young County Prospect

CHEYENNE, Wyo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Platina Energy Group, Inc. (OTCBB:PLTG - News; FWB:O5Y) is pleased to announce today that it has begun upgrading the oil collection system currently in place on its Young County prospect.
Platina Energy's Young County prospect includes currently producing wells and proven reserves worth millions of dollars according to independent data. Initial production of oil, based on average pay-zone production data, indicates that daily production ranges from 20-50 barrels per day; however, advancements in recovery technology may be able to increase well productivity by 200% or more.
Upgrades to the current oil collection and storage system in Young County are being performed in order to accommodate newly anticipated drilling activities as part of its financial joint venture relationship with Zone Petroleum. Zone Petroleum is an oil and gas finance company whose primary target is Central and South American exploration opportunities. Platina and Zone entered into a joint venture agreement to develop the Young County prospect owned by Platina.
The potential upside for Platina's Young County prospect could be worth millions of dollars in oil revenues, according to third party reports. Platina will manage and operate the drilling and collection activities.
Depending on production reports, Zone Petroleum expects to drill the first two new wells and then assess the merits of continuing with the project. At such time, Zone shall have the exclusive first right of refusal to continue with the entire current drilling and development project.
Platina Energy anticipates acquiring more acreage in the Young County region and expanding operations through additional joint venture partnerships with Zone.
