Arkana Field
BLACK DRAGON RESOURCE COMPANIES, INC. ANNOUNCES THE ACQUISITION OF 3,000 ACRE OIL AND GAS MINERAL LEASE
Black Dragon Resource Companies, Inc., (Pink Sheets:BDGR) announced today the acquisition of 51% of the working interest in a 3,000 acre oil and gas mineral lease with two existing 11,000 foot wells located on the Louisiana and Arkansas border, in the Arkana field of Bossier Parish, Louisiana. Black Dragon has 90 days to test the wells at its expense, and connect them to the Apache Corporation gas sales pipeline immediately adjacent to the lease and to tank batteries for oil production before paying 300,000 in cash and restricted shares for its interest.
The analysis of the logs and other data conducted for the Company indicates multiple pay zones in each of the wells. A recent test indicated initial potential on one of the wells at 50 barrels of oil per day, and 400,000 cf of gas per day from the zone currently completed at approximately 8,000 feet below the surface. Our engineer has indicated that a deeper gas zone might be more prolific. "We immediately took advantage of this new opportunity. Our intention is to establish production in both wells within the next month and observe the results," said Rick Michael, President of Black Dragon. "We believe that the initial returns should more than justify the investment before we exercise the option. Over time we will develop the undrilled acreage and the unexploited zones. With very limited risk Black Dragon has once again significantly enhanced our portfolio and will generate another great source of revenue."
Mr. Michael concluded by saying that "This additional area of development and assets provide Black Dragon with over 15,000 acres of oil and gas interests under development and on track to our previously stated goal of 30,000 barrels of oil per month and 20 million cf of gas per month by year end. We are gratified that our model of internal growth and accretive acquisitions representing value to our shareholders continues to be validated. This property has had the benefit of several million dollars of development over the last twenty years and we are getting it for a fraction of that amount."
As earlier stated the Company is working with its auditor to complete its work and become a fully reporting company in the near future.

(www.black-dragonoil.com) Black Dragon specializes in increasing the production of crude oil and natural gas from wells whose production amounts to 15 barrels of crude oil or less per day. The reduced production of these wells, a result of abandonment or plugging because of dropping prices of crude oil through the 1980s, represents a significant opportunity to capitalize on local resources, while lessening domestic dependence on foreign oil. Black Dragon continues to acquire wells in the oil-rich regions of Louisiana and Eastern Texas, augmenting its portfolio to over 400 operating oil wells. Forward Looking Statements: -

All I know is...
.....Petrohawk aquired Winwell Resources for $208 million in 2006.........
I get a check from JAG Operating for Arkana Field- I had a question so I called them. They said they bought Apache's interests there. The caller ID said Winwell Resources. So many aquisitions and mergers? Go figure....then let me know what's going on!
My daughter owns land in Hosston and so much going on there she can't figure it out. Land's being cleared, big gates are locked-busy, busy..
Good luck!!!!!!!! -

the company I work for has already leased that land last year. That lease is expired.

Pittboss, Just read paper where company has just gotten approval for a field in arkana from arkansas commission. Also , who do you work for and is the company you work for interested in anything in arkansas or are yall already here?

They must have a lease on the Ark. side now. We have approximately 5000 acres under lease in the Arkana field. I work for a local company, and we are not of the opinion that the Haynesville Shale is here. I believe they might be looking for a shale formation in Arkansas, just not the Haynesville. It would likely be even deeper and might not be financially logical to produce.

Any idea as to why they are trying to lease 100,000 acres 2-3 miles north of there
