Heartland Oil and Gas Accelerates Pipeline Expansion in Kansas
SPRING HILL, Kan.--Heartland Oil and Gas Corp. (OTC BB: HTOG) (FWB: HOCA) has directed its primary contractor, Aztec Well Services, to accelerate the pace of construction of its new pipeline in Eastern Kansas. As a result, at the end of last week, Aztec had fused over 3750 feet of 8 inch pipe and has cleared the right of way in preparation for tie-in to Heartland's main 12 inch pipeline.
This pipeline is being completed in order to connect 12 additional wells in Heartland's Jake pilot location. Aztec will also perforate and fracture the wells and drill an injection well to dewater the producing wells. The new 8 inch pipeline will total 4.5 miles and will connect Jake to Heartland's Lancaster gas processing plant. This will add another 12 wells to the 26 wells that are already connected. Once the pipeline extension is completed, Aztec will continue drilling wells adjacent to the right of way.
"The Aztec field personnel in Kansas have enthusiastically accepted responsibility to complete this expansion program," reports Kamal Abdallah, Chairman and CEO of Heartland as well as UPDA, the parent corporation of both Aztec and Heartland. "We have purchased the additional equipment necessary to accelerate the program, completed the required permits for road crossings and directed our land staff in Kansas to pursue further leases along the right of way. We fully expect to bring the existing wells online without further delay and to proceed with the drilling program contemplated when we first acquired Heartland."
