Second quarter production from the Sarqala-1 well averaged 5,427 barrels of oil per day ("bbl/d). WesternZagros continues, in accordance with the KRG, to supply this production to the domestic market under pre-paid contracts. The Company currently has two domestic customers for its oil production.

The Company is incorporating final comments from the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) into its Sarqala Field Development Plan (FDP). Approval of the FDP is expected once the KRG has completed its contractual negotiations to build a natural gas plant to utilize the associated natural gas from the Sarqala field.
