Source Petroleum Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire Fuel-x International Inc.
Source Petroleum, Inc. is pleased to announce the company has executed a letter of intent with Fuel-x International Inc, to which Source Petroleum will, subject to certain conditions and regulatory approvals, acquire Fuel-x International.
Fuel-x International is a Calgary-based international oil and gas company which has successfully raised in excess of CAD $45 million to date. The proceeds raised were used in acquiring current production, development and exploration assets in Indonesia, S.E. Asia.
It is anticipated that certain management and board members of Fuel-x will play a key role in Source Petroleum upon closing of the proposed transaction.
Key Benefits:
The resulting company will have key management and board personnel with extensive oil and gas background which include Petrokhazikstan, Centurion Energy, Western Oil Sands, Provident Energy Trust, Petro China, to name a few, that bring decades of expertise domestically and internationally.
The combined Source/Fuel-x entity would also provide Source Petroleum with a portfolio of on-shore and off-shore oil and gas assets with current oil production of approximately 300 bbl/d, near-term development and a large world-class gas asset nearing commercialization. Combined with Source Petroleum’s heavy oil asset in Northern Alberta and its Mackenzie NWT high-impact opportunity that are international in size and scope, Source Petroleum believes the acquisition will provide critical mass and tremendous growth potential both domestically and internationally for its shareholders.
The companies anticipate completion of a binding and definitive agreement in the near future, at which time further details and information will be provided.
