7 Oct 2016material agreement▲ GoodMajor
Zion signed a drilling agreement with S.C. Daflog S.R.L. (the Israeli branch of Romanian driller DAFORA) for its F-400 rig, covering the planned 15,000 ft Megiddo-Jezreel #1 well plus up to two optional wells. Rig commissioning costs $384,000 or $319,000 depending on set-up, and the operating day rate is $23,340. This replaces the earlier Viking rig and unnamed US drilling-partner discussions as the rig plan in the record. Zion also received the executed Israel Land Authority agreement on Sept 25, 2016 for the 3.18-acre drill site, with site construction expected to take 45 to 60 days. Drilling still depends on government permits and on raising more capital, including through the bond offering.
