About Southern Star Energy.

Southern Star Energy has approximately 5500 acres under lease within the prospect area, which is defined by a string of ten vintage wells drilled in the 1950?s. The prospect area was historically developed on 640 acre spacing (wells approximately one mile apart). Most of these old wells were abandoned before 1972 after only producing from one relatively thin (20 feet) zone of the Cotton Valley sand members. None of the zones with identified reserve potential have been produced within a five mile radius of the prospect area. Preliminary plans, with continued successful evaluation drilling, will be to develop the leased acreage with at least one well per 160 acres, yielding a potential for 30 to 60 additional locations. Analog fields are being economically developed with at least one well per 80 acres indicating that many more wells can be reasonably contemplated.
