Camber Energy Announces Execution of Non-Binding Memorandum of Understanding Relating to Asset Acquisition
HOUSTON, November 30, 2018 - Camber Energy Inc. (NYSE American: CEI) (the ''Company'' or ''Camber''), based in Houston, Texas, a growth-oriented, independent oil and gas company engaged in the development of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, announced the execution of a non-binding memorandum of understanding in connection with the contemplated acquisition of an asset located in Greely and Hamilton Counties, Kansas for a purchase price of $4,000,000 in equity. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, negotiation of final transaction documents and transaction terms, and other conditions, and may not close timely, on the terms set forth in the Memorandum of Understanding, or at all. The closing is contemplated to occur in December 2018.
In the event the transaction closes, the Company will acquire working interests which include up to approximately 30,000 net leasehold acres in Greely and Hamilton Counties, Kansas, including 181 non-producing well bores. The acquisition will also include some existing production and the required infrastructure and equipment necessary to support future hydrocarbon production.
Camber is evaluating hydrocarbon production opportunities across all of the to-be acquired acreage including the existing non-producing well bores for workover opportunities. The Company plans to begin the process of reestablishing production from some of the non-producing well bores assuming the closing occurs.
Louis G. Schott, the Interim CEO of Camber noted that, ''We are currently performing due diligence on this opportunity. In the event we are satisfied with our due diligence and close the transaction, this acquisition will provide significant opportunities for the Company to increase its production, cash flows and reserve base. We plan to begin workovers as quickly as possible following a closing with the goal of having production from some of the non-producing well bores restored within a month of closing.''
Mr. Schott continued, ''This is all part of Camber's plan to add similar low risk acquisitions which can provide an inventory of opportunities to grow the Company through increases in cash flow and reserve base.''
