Oil and Gas Investor Alert; Osage (OTCBB: OEDV) Mississippian Formation Recoverable Reserves Data Highlights

Point Roberts, WA - June 6, 2011 (Investorideas.com Energy Newswire) - Investorideas.com, a leader in sector research including oil and gas stocks, issues a trading alert, stock chart and recoverable reserves data highlights for Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV). The recoverable reserves data was prepared by Pinnacle Energy Services, LLC of Oklahoma City.
Since 2007, several operators have been drilling horizontally and completing the Mississippi formation. Based on available public information, SandRidge Energy and Chesapeake Energy have completed over 45 horizontal wells in Woods and Alfalfa Counties, with initial rates ranging up to 1250 BOPD and 3100 Mcfd. Although a distance away, the Osage prospects are approximately on strike with the Woods and Alfalfa County wells.
Excerpts highlighting recoverable reserves on the Osage acreage :
The prospects are located in Townships T16-19N, 3&4W of Logan County, Oklahoma. Pinnacle relied on geological maps, log data, and drilling and completion information provided by Osage which was supplemented by well data, production data, and other information gathered from public sources.
In summary, based on volumetric calculations, the calculated projected oil and gas recoverable volumes per 640 acre section are:
Marshall Ridge 1,043,000 bbls oil and 3,128 Mmcf natural gas
Crescent Ridge 909,000 bbls oil and 3,634 Mmcf natural gas
Cimarron Ridge 824,000 bbls oil and 4,118 Mmcf natural gas
The overall arithmetic average of the three prospects is 992,000 bbls of oil and 3.5 BCF of natural gas per section.
Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. currently owns in excess of 14 net sections, broken down thusly:
Marshall Ridge approximately 10 sections
Crescent Ridge approximately 3 sections
Cimarron Ridge approximately 1 section

In a recent Q&A with Investorideas.com, Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. discusses the players in the Mississippian Formation;
"There are more than a dozen that I could name offhand. What is interesting is that in almost every case, it is Oklahoma based companies that are in this play. Ranging from very long term privately owned Oklahoma drillers such as Nadel & Gussman and Ceja, which date back to the 20's and 30's to Eagle Energy which was founded in 2009, all are finding success in the Horizontal Miss. The publicly traded companies such as Chesapeake Energy, Devon Energy, SandRidge Energy, and Range Resources with a combined market cap of almost $70 billion lend a tremendous amount of credence to the play by their very presence. It is fair to say that at least in SandRidge Energy's case, its commitment to the Oklahoma Mississippian play has totally transformed the company from a lackluster natural gas focused producer to one of the most dynamic mid sized oil companies in the market today, with a stock price performance to match that transformation going from $4 less than a year ago to roughly $12 today. If you go to their website, and you should, it is obvious that they largely credit the Horizontal Miss for that transformation.
The attribute that all the Horizontal Miss players seem to have, beyond the fact that they are almost unanimously Oklahoma companies with detailed local knowledge, is that they have been largely driven by people of conviction, ranging from most notably Tom Ward at SandRidge Energy to Loren Schmidt at Calyx, Charles Wickstrom and Shane Matson at Spyglass Energy, as well as Osage's own Greg Franklin, and many others. While the Mississippian formation has been known for decades, it took the ability to re-evaluate without prejudice, and move forward with conviction that the Mississippian could be an ideal candidate for horizontal exploitation.
Because the Mississippian is present in so many counties in Oklahoma, each of the companies involved are making unique contributions to the knowledge base. As an example, Pablo Energy and Eagle Energy of Oklahoma are in completely different areas of Oklahoma, use completely different drilling and completion techniques, but are helping us all to advance our knowledge and build efficiencies. Oklahoma is a fantastic place todrill for oil and these are fantastic people and companies to be working along beside.”

American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) Updates Horizontal Drilling Progress at North Oklahoma Project
SCOTTSDALE , AZ - May 25, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH) ("American Petro-Hunter" or the "Company") today wishes to update the drilling progress of the NOM1H Horizontal well at the Company's North Oklahoma Project. Full news:http://www.investorideas.com/CO/AAPH/news/2011/05251.asp
In a previously published Investorideas.com interview, Robert McIntosh, President & C.E.O. of American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB: AAPH) notes, "Shale plays for oil and gas are the new technology of the industry. Advancements in direction drilling and secondary recovery allow us to drill along these shales-they have oil it’s been found and is more of an engineering issue to extract it, like oil sands. So we will have known predictable oil and not have to "wildcat" hoping to discover oil. The Bakken is 200 feet thick and is worth billions to the companies involved. Our Oklahoma shale is new and we are on the cutting edge of drilling leasing and production. And the majors are there-Devon (NYSE: DVN ), Chesapeake, (NYSE: CHK ), Newfield (NYSE: NFX ) and others now producing gas from the Woodford shale in the south of the State.”

Energy Stocks News; American Petro-Hunter (OTCBB: AAPH) Announces Positive Oil and Gas Shows at North Oklahoma Project

SCOTTSDALE, AZ � June 1, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH) ("American Petro-Hunter" or the "Company") wishes to update the progress of drilling activities currently underway at the NOM1H horizontal well located at the Company's North Oklahoma Project.
The well is making good progress and should reach its engineered lateral depth within the next few days. The operator has informed the Company that during the drilling of the horizontal section excellent oil and gas shows were encountered. The Company is very pleased to report it has been advised of strong oil fluorescence; gassy oil shows and gas kicks which are regarded as very positive developments.
Subsequently, the Company wishes to advise that the probability for the well to be completed as a commercial oil and gas producer is considered high. Once the well reaches the target distance of the lateral leg, the well bore will be immediately swab tested and further evaluated.
The NOM1H well is the first of a planned series of horizontal wells designed to test and develop oil and gas in the 100 foot thick limestone Mississippi Formation.
Company President Robert McIntosh states, "We are extremely encouraged by the excellent oil and gas shows from our first horizontal well and couldn't be more pleased by the efforts of our operator and their engineering team as the initial information from them is beyond our expectations. As the well approaches completion, we are certain the partners will expedite the final tests and evaluation in anticipation of our inaugural horizontal well production."

Q&A Interview with Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage (OTCBB: OEDV), Following News of Joint Venture with Slawson Exploration Company, Inc. and U.S. Energy Development Corporation

Point Roberts, WA - May 31, 2011 (Investorideas.com Energy Newswire) - www.InvestorIdeas.com, a leader in sector research including oil and gas stocks, releases a recent interview with Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV), following news of the recent joint venture with Slawson Exploration Company, Inc. and U.S. Energy Development Corporation. Mr. Bradford discusses Osage's partners, reserves and potential for the Nemaha Ridge Project in Oklahoma.
Interview
Q: Investorideas.com
The Company just announced it closed an agreement whereby Slawson Exploration Company, Inc. and U.S. Energy Development Corporation have acquired 45% and 30% respectively of Osage's Nemaha Ridge project in Oklahoma for gross consideration of $4,875,000.00 plus a 10% net carry on the first three horizontal Mississippian wells. Can you discuss the significance of the partners and what role they play moving forward?
A: Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc.
Yes I can. Large oil companies have departments full of people and those people tend to be interchangeable in any given situation. Because we are not a large oil company, the individuality of the partners becomes paramount in determining how we go forward. In our situation, the Principals of each company come together and make decisions. The fact that Slawson and USEDC have done many deals together over the years, and the fact that Osage's VP Exploration, Greg Franklin, has known Steve Slawson for over 20 years means that from day one this partnership has a culture of trust and long term respect for each other. This is essential for success because in creating this financial partnership we have also created the Operating team. In this project there are no passive partners, we all bring a level of expertise in the various functional areas necessary to drill and exploit this resource. We are all rallying behind our Operator, Slawson, to provide leadership, but Slawson has selectively asked each of us to perform certain tasks along the way. From Osage's perspective, we have gained a tremendous amount of engineering expertise that we simply did not have. We have gained access to two superbly experienced land teams to complement the work that we have done already. Perhaps most importantly, Slawson as a driller owns rigs that we may elect to use in our project. The value of that can not be understated because as the Horizontal Miss play continues to heat up, it is pretty easy to forecast equipment shortages, and we have the solution already in place. This is a superb team with an abundance of talent, expertise, equipment and experience in horizontal drilling.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you discuss the potential reserves based on the report by Pinnacle Energy Services?
A: Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc.
Pinnacle Energy Services is run by John Paul Dick, who is widely recognized as a carbonate formation engineer of the highest caliber. Our Mississippian formation is a carbonate. It only made sense to use Pinnacle for our engineering if we could get them. Needless to say, we have a very high degree of confidence in the work and the conclusions of this report. John Paul looked at Mississippian penetrations all around our area of concentration, and looked at all the Mississippian penetrations in our land block to arrive at his conclusions. As one would expect from a firm of Pinnacle's reputation, they used very conservative assumptions to derive their calculations. Probably the best example is that fact is that Pinnacle utilized a 7% recovery factor for our project. That number could easily end up much higher, but even so, the estimated recoverable reserves per section is almost a million barrels of oil, which does not include the gas. With the gas included, we go substantially over a million barrels per section. Perhaps the ultimate test of an engineering report is whether it makes sense in context with the surrounding areas. In this case, the numbers that Pinnacle prepared for Osage looks very similar to what we have seen in actual results from SandRidge Energy (NYSE: SD ) and Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK ), who are probably the two most prolific drillers in the Horizontal Mississippian to date. Taken together with John Paul's reputation, the consistency of our report and the results to date gives me a very good feeling that we can achieve these results in the field, which will be an economic home run for Osage.
We currently have about 17 net sections leased, so it would appear that we have approximately 17 million boe recoverable according to the report, but that's not the whole truth. In Oklahoma, an Operator can “force pool” other mineral owners in a section by going to the state Commission and giving the other owners a chance to participate for their percentage or alternatively “force” them to lease the balance of the land to the Operator. Because we currently have leases in 40 sections, we will have the opportunity to drill in up to 40 sections, not 17, and pool some part of the acreage that we don't already have leased. The implication being that we will almost certainly end up with substantially more than the 17 net sections we currently have and commensurately more recoverable barrels net to Osage.
There is one additional thing to note from the Pinnacle report that is easily missed. Pinnacle talks about the fact that many other formations have been historically productive within the Osage block, which include the Layton, Woodford shale, Oswego, Hunton, and many others. Pinnacle says “It is anticipated that many of these formations will be found productive in the prospect areas as development and analysis progresses.” And while there is no attempt in this engineering report to quantify how much additional oil and gas might be contained in these known, locally productive horizons, our geological work has already identified multiple drilling targets in these additional zones that we will certainly exploit at some point.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you tell investors what other operators are in this area of Oklahoma and in particular, the publicly traded companies?
A: Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc.
There are more than a dozen that I could name offhand. What is interesting is that in almost every case, it is Oklahoma based companies that are in this play. Ranging from very long term privately owned Oklahoma drillers such as Nadel & Gussman and Ceja, which date back to the 20's and 30's to Eagle Energy which was founded in 2009, all are finding success in the Horizontal Miss. The publicly traded companies such as Chesapeake Energy, Devon Energy, SandRidge Energy, and Range Resources with a combined market cap of almost $70 billion lend a tremendous amount of credence to the play by their very presence. It is fair to say that at least in SandRidge Energy's case, its commitment to the Oklahoma Mississippian play has totally transformed the company from a lackluster natural gas focused producer to one of the most dynamic mid sized oil companies in the market today, with a stock price performance to match that transformation going from $4 less than a year ago to roughly $12 today. If you go to their website, and you should, it is obvious that they largely credit the Horizontal Miss for that transformation.
The attribute that all the Horizontal Miss players seem to have, beyond the fact that they are almost unanimously Oklahoma companies with detailed local knowledge, is that they have been largely driven by people of conviction, ranging from most notably Tom Ward at SandRidge Energy to Loren Schmidt at Calyx, Charles Wickstrom and Shane Matson at Spyglass Energy, as well as Osage's own Greg Franklin, and many others. While the Mississippian formation has been known for decades, it took the ability to re-evaluate without prejudice, and move forward with conviction that the Mississippian could be an ideal candidate for horizontal exploitation.
Because the Mississippian is present in so many counties in Oklahoma, each of the companies involved are making unique contributions to the knowledge base. As an example, Pablo Energy and Eagle Energy of Oklahoma are in completely different areas of Oklahoma, use completely different drilling and completion techniques, but are helping us all to advance our knowledge and build efficiencies. Oklahoma is a fantastic place to drill for oil, and these are fantastic people and companies to be working along beside.
Q: Investorideas.com
The$4,875,000.00 received as a result of the transaction - how far does that take the company into drilling?
A: Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc.
We have a very clear view with Slawson and USEDC how we plan to move forward on this project. Based on that plan, we are adequately capitalized to move forward for at least a year of drilling. After we evaluate our first year's results, it appears that there is a strong likelihood that we will then increase our pace of drilling in the second year and going forward from there. The plan that we have in place is for the Mississippian development only, and could change based on other formations that we expect to encounter, because we know that we have “stacked” pay zones over our acreage block. We will wait to see what comes out of the first few drill holes before making any decisions on the additional zones, because some of them are shallower than the Miss and some are deeper.

A: Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc.
First of all, I should point out that from an investor's point of view, it is important not to overlook Osage's Colombian assets. Even mid last year, when our market capitalization was under $1,000,000, we enjoyed between $150,000 and $200,000 a month in revenue from our Colombian operations. That is a case where the investors overlooked our assets and cash flows and as a consequence the stock was severely undervalued for a long period of time. Investors must not be fooled by what the markets tell them, because markets range from severely undervaluing assets to severely overvaluing assets and everything in between. Research and analysis has always been the key for investment performance.
Our Colombian assets give us a head and shoulders advantage over our micro-cap oil and gas peers, called positive cash flow. That in turn gives us the ability to prospect for new discoveries without having to worry about where our next dollar is coming from, which leads me to the next topic. While we could not be more excited about our Horizontal Mississippian acreage, we are already well advanced in evaluating our next potential project. The next project that we take on will certainly be in the US, hopefully with similar economics to our current project. At some point in the near future however, we plan another exploration play in Colombia because we have the infrastructure already in place. We have a Colombian subsidiary, which is required by Colombian law; we also have probably the best oil and gas accounting firm and one of the very best legal firms in all of Colombia. We have extensive knowledge about how the Colombian oil and gas regulatory agencies work; we have partners and former partners that are deeply involved in Colombia so that we have access to projects with which we already have familiarity.

showcase oil and gas stock, American Petro-Hunter Inc (OTCBB: AAPH ) .

“By relying on experience, science and proven growth strategies in order to continuously balance a risk/reward portfolio, American Petro Hunter is focused on its existing leased properties to begin full production, while continually maintaining an eye to expand its acreage/leases at its North Oklahoma Project.” –Randy Lewis, EquityNet

EquityNet Research Initiates “BUY RATING” and $1.45 price target on American Petro-Hunter Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH): Click the link for a full report.
http://www.equitynet.net/pics/AAPH%20Report_Final.pdf

Report excerpts:

We are initiating a BUY rating for American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH), an emerging junior oil exploration and production (E&P) company that is actively seeking to capitalize on burgeoning demand and high oil prices by strategically acquiring and consolidating the operations of various properties (where possible), based on estimated reserves, ease of extraction and location.”

Solid Project Portfolio: The Company’s primary producing properties will be on the Mississippi Formation in North Oklahoma and Kansas, and are classic over-producers. The Mississippi’s geology is well understood as a result of the thousands of vertical wells drilled and produced there since the 1940s. The recent applications of horizontal drilling and multistage hydraulic fracturing, both utilized by AAPH, have demonstrated the potential for extracting significant additional quantities of oil and natural gas from the formation.

Business/Product Overview: About American Petro-Hunter Inc.
American Petro-Hunter, Inc. is an emerging, expertly managed oil exploration and production (E&P) company. AAPHs business strategy is based on acquiring and developing high quality projects with existing and expansion potential (mostly through horizontal drilling). The Company has a diversified portfolio of assets with four wells in production and one slated to produce any day. American Petro is currently operating three projects: Ripley in Oklahoma (one well soon), Poston in Trego County, Kansas (2 wells) and Yale in Oklahoma (4 wells). Ripley and Yale are collectively referred to as North Oklahoma. Poston is currently producing, as are two wells at Yale. By relying on experience, science and proven growth strategies in order to continuously balance a risk/reward portfolio, American Petro is focused on its existing leased properties to begin full production, while continually maintaining an eye to expand its acreage/leases at its North Oklahoma Project.

Company Strategy Brief
  • Acquire Capacity. The Company has stated that it intends to become a 500-1000 BOE producer in the next 12-36 months by aggressively developing its Poston and North Oklahoma. Through the second half of this year, we have predicted 323 barrels a day, so this goal certainly seems realistic.
  • Utilize Strategic Relationships. The Company continually strives to expand its network in North Oklahoma. Combined with successful efforts accounting, American Petro has been able to secure leases and develop properties with friendly strategic partners and run very lean from an outgoing cashflow perspective.
  • Increase Efficiencies (Geographic Concentration). Because of fragmentation, huge demand, and the surge in exploration activities due to skyrocketing oil prices, the U.S. oil industry (particularly the independent, junior players) is marked by inefficiencies. This is why we like the fact that American Petro has geographically concentrated its operations, which better suits a fledgling E&P company in our opinion. Furthermore, we like to see the “P” of “E&P” (production) being the primary focus. Securing leases in this environment has been a nice coup, so now is the time to focus on developing the wells and generating revenue in a region that has certainly shown itself to be a top producer and has the interest of big players.
