Leni Gas & Oil has made the first sale from the newly commissioned sales tank at the Goudron Field. A total of 1,886 barrels of crude oil were shipped from the new sales tank to the Pointe-a-Pierre refinery.

Neil Ritson, LGO Chief Executive, commented, "A further milestone in field operations was reached yesterday with the first oil sale from the newly commissioned 2,000 barrel facilities. Production from the field can now be raised without any further immediate constrains imposed by the sales infrastructure."

Previous maximum daily sales were limited to around 750 barrels and the new infrastructure will be capable of handling oil sales through the remainder of 2014 and to mid-2015 when a Lease Automatic Custody Transfer (LACT) meter is expected to be installed to handle higher sales volumes as production continues to ramp up with the ongoing drilling program.
