Nordic Oil and Gas acquires P & NG rights on one-half section of land in
Drumheller, Alberta
Nordic will immediately be moving to arrange for pooling of its newly acquired interest with the owner of the remainder of the land.
"This is an important step for the Company in the process to develop our Drumheller property,"
"It is a requirement for us to own both the P & NG and the Coal rights in order for us to proceed on the UCG project," he added.
The basic UCG process involves drilling two wells into the coal - one for injection of the oxidants (water/air or water/oxygen mixtures), and another some distance away to bring the product gas to the surface. The technique offers an alternative to conventional coal mining methods.
Nordic and Western Warner own 3,856 hectares (9,528 acres) of coal leases located at Drumheller, Alberta.
