Southern Pacific Provides September Operational Update

08.10.2013  |  Marketwired

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Oct 8, 2013) - Southern Pacific Resource Corp. (TSX:STP) ("Southern Pacific" or the "Company") today provided an operational update for the month of September 2013 with respect to the Company's STP-McKay and STP-Senlac thermal projects.

Total Corporate Production

Total Company production, which includes bitumen production from STP-McKay and heavy oil from STP-Senlac, averaged 5,042 bbl/d ("barrels of oil per day") for the month of September 2013, representing a 5% increase from the prior month.

STP-McKay Thermal Project

Southern Pacific continues to focus efforts on the ramp-up at STP-McKay. Average bitumen production was 2,305 bbl/d for the month of September, a 22% increase over the previous month. Operations during the month of September were steady, with no major changes to the status of the well pairs. Southern Pacific is continuing to advance and implement its operations strategy at STP-McKay. The Company is pleased with the improving performance of the well pairs in the field that are now on steady steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), and has plans in place to accelerate and improve steam chamber conformance along certain pairs by applying stimulation techniques including high pressure steam stimulation (HPSS).

STP-Senlac Thermal Project

Heavy oil production at STP-Senlac averaged 2,737 bbl/d for the month of August. Last month a well pair on Phase K was taken off production for a down hole repair. That repair has now been completed and the well pair is currently on production.

Fiscal Q1 2014

Southern Pacific plans to release its first quarter fiscal 2014 financial and operating results, in addition to its October operational update, on or about November 6, 2013.

"Our long-term commitment of value creation remains strong," said Byron Lutes, Southern Pacific's President & CEO. "We're encouraged by the steady growth in production at STP-McKay."
