In 2008, we purchased a 1.66% unitized interest in the Nelson field and platform, which is located in Blocks 22/11, 22/6a, 22/7 and 22/12a. 

Nelson began producing in 1994 and consists of 40° API oil from the Paleocene Forties.  Original estimates of oil in place was 790 million barrels.  The oil is exported via the Forties pipeline.  The previous owner of the 1.66% interest in Nelson realized production of approximately 400 bbls/d in 2007.
