This seismic has been used to map an extension of the Mata Magallanes Oeste field and to define a potential new pool prospect on the Canadon Ramirez concession.
The terms of the concession provide for a 15% provincial royalty.
This acquisition is the initial phase in the implementation of Crown Points business and growth plans on the north side of the San Jorge Basin.
The closing of this acquisition, which is currently scheduled for mid-January, 2011, is subject to a number of conditions precedent, including regulatory acceptance.
