Petrolifera posts results



By Upstream staff 

Canadian Petrolifera Petroleum reports steady growth during its first quarter with sales up 12% and cash flow per share up 14% over the fourth quarter last year.

Total revenue for Petrolifera for the first quarter was $27,167 down from the same quarter a year ago of $47,122 but steadying since the fourth quarter last year of $27,266.

During the period, Petrolifera drilled 16 new wells in Argentina, substantially completed its Puesto Morales Norte production facilities and activated its pressure maintenance program said the company in a statement.

Since year end, a significant follow-up well at Rinconada has been drilled, resulting in a Sierras Blancas discovery which, after a frac treatment, flowed light gravity crude oil at approximately 800 barrels per day and is presently producing at a rate of about 460 bpd through a 10 millimetre choke.

Also, the company will shortly be testing several indicated hydrocarbon-bearing zones in its PME x-1002 well.

The first well on this block is a Loma Montosa natural gas discovery.

The company anticipates drilling in Colombia during the third quarter of this year.
