Location: Wilkinson County, bordering Louisiana to the south and the Mississippi River to the west.
Lexaria has participatedin the drilling of
two Frio wells in the Red Bug area. Subsequently
Lexaria announced that it has acquired additional interest in any subsequent
wells to be drilled in this area under the AMI, to hold a 60% gross
working interest from that point forward, in all production zones to
the base of the Frio formation and 40% of all production to the base
of the Wilcox formation. Lexaria does not have any interest in possible
Tuscaloosa targets in this area. Red Bug primarily contains larger
Frio sands targets similar in some ways to the Palmetto Point prospect.
The
Red Bug project to date, is of a total of 18.5
square miles (approximately 11,840 acres) which has been entirely shot
with 3-D seismic. The project may be expanded in the future through
additional 3-D seismic shots.
The
first targeted well (Red Bug #F-3) in which
Lexaria has a gross 45% interest was drilled in the Red Bug prospect
in September, 2006. It successfully encountered approximately 14 feet
of net natural gas pay zones. Our second well in this area (Red Bug
#F-1) was completed on May 13, 2007 and encountered approximately 10
feet of net natural gas pay zones. Additional target drilling is possible
but not yet scheduled.
