Kodiak Energy, Inc. (TSX VENTURE: KDK)(OTCBB: KDKN) ("Kodiak" or
the "Corporation) announces that its majority controlled
subsidiary, Cougar Energy, Inc. (Cougar), has closed the property
acquisition previously announced on August 11, 2009 consisting of
wells, facilities and production from a private company with
operations in and adjacent to the CREEnergy project. Additional
information on the property acquisition is on our website at
http://www.kodiakpetroleum.com/s/AdditionalProjects.asp.
The acquisition adds 2 producing wells, 4 suspended wells, and
associated production facilities. The existing wells and reserves
are located in the Kidney and Equisetum fields. Current gross
production is approximately 20 barrels of oil per day. Based on the
April 1, 2009 engineering report provided by the private company,
the estimated Proved and Probable oil reserves are CAD$459,000 (net
present value - 10%). Cougar will update the reserve report
information as soon as possible.
This acquisition is funded with CAD$100,000 cash paid in
installments over 18 months and the issuance of 155,000 common
shares of Cougar at CAD$1.30 to the private company. The shares are
subject to a two year escrow agreement.
Mr. Bill Tighe, CEO of Cougar, states, "We are excited about
closing this acquisition and it is a strategic step for Cougar
being able to commence active development in this core area,
achieve timely production and cash flow. We have already started to
advance our plan to build upon overall area production,
infrastructure; provide substantial upside in workovers, secondary
developments and drilling; along with the required financing.
Cougar will be actively working this fall and winter to maximize
those opportunities and increase production and thus revenue."
The issuance of shares is subject to final approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange.
The Corporation also announces that Cougar's working interest
partner in the Lucy project was unable to complete the financing to
the agreement previously announced on April 16, 2009. As default
payment, Cougar has accepted the transfer of the Alexander and
Crossfield producing properties. The properties have an estimated
average production of 15 barrels of oil equivalent per day. Cougar
will update the reserve report information as soon as possible.
