WHL - Seychelles seismic

WHL Energy has elected to commission a further 887km of 2D seismic acquisition over the Creole lead in Area 3 of its large Seychelles holdings based on the positive results following the initial seismic data review and an Independent Expert Report from Isis Petroleum Consultants Pty Ltd ('Isis'). The data shoot will commence immediately.

Isis' studies have confirmed the potential of 12 leads across 4 different plays in WHL Energy's Seychelles exploration holdings and estimated that these leads have the potential to contain unrisked mean oil in place of between 166 million barrels and 5.44 billion barrels per lead.

WHL Energy Ltd Chief Executive Officer, Mr David Rowbottam, commented: 'The acquisition of infill seismic data will remove remaining uncertainties related to the leads that have been identified to date and further assist us in identifying suitable drilling targets.'

'By taking advantage of the seismic vessel in the area, WHL's Seychelles exploration program is accelerated and the necessary infill seismic data is acquired cost effectively.'

'This is another important step in our plans to farm-down interests in our Seychelles project and will remove the requirement for additional seismic acquisition prior to farm-down of the acreage.'
