In the third quarter 2012 the company’s production amounted to 46,400 barrels, or 504 barrels per day, compared to 24,400 barrels, or 265 barrels per day, in the same period in 2011.
During the summer, Shelton Petroleum completed a vertical seismic profile and fracking of two wells at Rustamovskoye. As a direct result of the fracking the company raised the field’s production to over 200 barrels per day in August and September, compared to 120 in June.
Shelton Petroleum has previously announced the results from the oil auctions in Ukraine. Starting from September, Shelton Petroleum will instead report monthly production volumes for its producing fields in both Russia and Ukraine. The production reports are assessed to better portray to the investor the development in the company. The results of the auctions in Ukraine have historically been published at the following link (in Ukrainian): http://www.uice.com.ua.
Shelton Petroleum has a 45% working interest in Kashtan Petroleum (holder of the license to the Lelyaki oil field) through its wholly owned subsidiary Zhoda 2001 Corporation. Ukrnafta, Ukraine's largest oil and gas company, owns 55%. The production data in the table above represents Shelton Petroleum’s working interest.
