Sea Dragon Acquires Oil Assets in Gulf of Suez

By MT Newswires December 07, 2012, 09:46:37 AM EDT

Sea Dragon Energy Inc. (SDX.V) has completed the acquisition of National Petroleum Company Shukheir Marine Limited. Sea Dragon paid US$250,000 cash at closing, plus the assumption of approximately US$3 million of NPC SHM's working capital deficiency. The consideration will be funded from Sea Dragon's existing working capital and cash flow.

The assets of NPC SHM include a 100% participating interest in the Shukheir Marine concession which contains the Shukheir Bay and the Gamma oil fields both of which are located in the shallow offshore Gulf of Suez. The Shukheir Marine concession currently produces approximately 460 bbls of oil per day. In addition to the oil and gas assets, NPC SHM owns oil field inventory, which can be applied toward operations and future drilling activity, valued at approximately US$ 4 million.

As a result of the acquisition, NPC SHM is now a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Sea Dragon.
