SEI Sintana Energy Inc

Sintana Energy Inc. (TSX-V: SEI, OTCQB: SEUSF) (“Sintana” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the entry of QatarEnergy into the Petroleum Exploration License 90 (“PEL 90”) joint venture through its acquisition of a 27.5% working interest in the petroleum exploration license and petroleum agreement associated with Block 2813B operated by Harmattan Energy Limited, an indirect subsidiary of Chevron Corporation (“Chevron Harmattan”). Upon completion of the acquisition the license owners will be 52.5% Chevron Harmattan as operator, 27.5% QatarEnergy, 10% National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (“NAMCOR”) and 10% Trago Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary of Custos Energy (Pty) Ltd. (“Custos”). Sintana maintains a 49% indirect interest in Custos.

Located approximately 200 kilometers offshore in Namibia’s Orange Basin and approximately 70 kilometers north of TotalEnergies’ Venus discovery, in which QatarEnergy is as well increasing its ownership, Block 2813B’s license covers an area of 5,433 kilometers in a water depth of 2,400 to 3,300 meters.

Earlier this year, the PEL 90 joint venture contracted Northern Ocean’s semi-submersible drilling rig Deepsea Bollsta for its inaugural exploration campaign in PEL 90, which lies directly north of TotalEnergies’ Venus and Mangetti discoveries and directly west of Galp’s Mopane find.

The rig is mobilizing to PEL 90 to drill the Kapana-1X well in the second half of December 2024.

“The entry of QatarEnergy into PEL 90 provides further evidence of the quality and potential of our portfolio at the heart of the Orange Basin,” said Robert Bose, Chief Executive Officer of Sintana. “We look forward to the initial drilling campaign on PEL 90 to commence over the next few weeks,” he added.
