Notes North American Petroleum Plc acquires leases in producing onshore US formations such as the Mississippi Lime, Oklahoma, where the application of new techniques and technologies such as horizontal drilling and fracture stimulation can dramatically improve recovery rates.

Revenues generated out of production are reinvested into both new wells and into the acquisition of additional leases to build a portfolio of producing and undeveloped assets focussed on lower risk oil rich plays.

To date, NAP has acquired 416 net mineral acres in the liquids rich Mississippi Lime play and has interests in seven producing wells and a further six either drilling or waiting to spud.
