LOS ANGELES, Sept. 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Black Stallion Oil & Gas, Inc. (OTCQB:BLKG) (herein after “Black Stallion”, “we”, “our” and/or “the Company”) is pleased to announce having engaged Calgary-based Sproule Associates Limited (“Sproule”) in connection with the Company commencing a four-phase work program on its 12,233-acre Woodrow Prospect in northwest Montana, within the Alberta Basin Bakken fairway, due west of the Williston Basin.

Black Stallion entered into the Master Services Consulting Agreement (“the agreement”) with Sproule on September 16, 2015, enabling Sproule’s team of experienced geologists, geophysicists, petrophysicists and engineers to begin work on the program immediately. The agreement includes estimation of prospective resources within the Woodrow Prospect, and technical advisory services relating to the Company’s four-phase work program.

The Company expects Phase I of the four-phase work program to be completed in the next month.

Black Stallion’s CEO, George Drazenovic, commented:

“We selected Sproule for this evaluation and advisory capacity because they have established themselves as a respected petroleum consulting firm with highly competent staff and an excellent reputation with the financial community. While Black Stallion’s technical team is encouraged by its own evaluation and review of the available data, as we start our work program, our shareholders can now look forward to seeing the results of another independent evaluation of the Woodrow Prospect’s potential within these coming weeks.”

The Company’s work program strategy calls for:

  • Phase I: Initial Regional Review of Prospect
  • Phase II: Enhanced Technical Studies (summarizing prospect identification & drilling recommendations)
  • Phase III: Drilling and Completion Recommendations (finalizing plans for drilling & completions)
  • Phase IV: Drilling and Completion of the Well

In particular, Phase I will focus on the identification of the most prospective reservoir zones and anticipated reservoir parameters, all hydrocarbon play elements, significant test results in the study area and nearby offsetting acreage, and recommendations for more detailed analysis to be performed in Phase II.

Details on the work program and Sproule’s involvement are provided further below.
