SEATTLE, April 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Legend Oil and Gas Ltd. (OTCBB: LOGL) ("Legend", the "Company") is pleased to announce that its work-over of the Company's 100% working interest well in the Swan Hills, Alberta carbonate bank resource play was successful and the Company is continuing to work to secure the required regulatory approvals for its first horizontal well into the play later this year.
Marshall Diamond-Goldberg, President and CEO, stated, "The successful work-over of this well has returned the production to a stable rate of over 13 BOPD for the past 10 day period. Prior to this work-over, this well had shown stable production over the last five years of 12-15 BOPD, but the production had recently declined from what we thought was the adjoining activity in the area surrounding the Legend acreage. However, this work-over indicated significant build-up of wax in the tubing string and some joints of corroded tubing as the cause of the reduced production, rather than drainage of the Company's reserves. This is excellent news for the company as we are now in firm belief that our reserves on this property are consistent with or possibly greater than our third-party engineering reports indicate."
Legend is also moving forward with its financing efforts and continues to negotiate final terms on a proposal for potential financing. The Company continues to prepare for an active drilling program in Canada and the U.S. subject to the results of these financing efforts.
