VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 19, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Stamper Oil & Gas Corp. (TSX-V:STMP) (FSE:TMP2) (OTCQB:STMGF) (“Stamper” or “the Company”), is pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) has approved the Company’s application for reinstatement of trading in Stamper’s common shares, and trading is scheduled to resume on Thursday, October 19, 2017.
The resumption of trading in the Company’s shares is a major step forward toward completion of the Stamper’s proposed combination with State Oil Corporation (“State”). The Company is continuing to work with the Exchange regarding the review of the transaction, although the Exchange has not yet made its acceptance.
As detailed in the October 10, 2017 news release, State has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Sudapet Company Ltd. (“Sudapet”), the national oil company of Sudan, pursuant to which State will farm-in to acquire a 50% interest and rights in potential Sudapet’s exploration and production operations in Sudan.
The project area is comprised of 26,000 sq. km. The previous operator successfully drilled 3 discovery wells and 7 development wells. Over 6,700 km of 2D seismic and 432 sq. km of 3D seismic have been completed in the project area. The seismic data indicates a number of new locations for drilling. The export oil pipeline to Port Sudan runs through the project area.
David Greenway, President of Stamper, commented: “The resumption in trading of Stamper’s common shares is a major success as we work to re-establish Stamper through the proposed combination with State Oil Corporation with its drill ready projects in Sudan.”
Stamper is encouraged with the US State Department’s announcement on the amendment of the Executive Order 13761 on Recognizing Positive Actions by the Government of Sudan and Providing for the Revocation of Certain Sudan-Related Sanctions.
