Shell farmin: December 2008

Northern Petroleum has announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Northern Petroleum (UK) Limited, has farmed-out six of its offshore Sicily Channel licenses in Italy, namely GR17-NP, GR18-NP, GR19-NP, GR20-NP, GR21-NP, GR22-NP ("Sicily Channel Licenses"), to Shell Italia E&P S.p.A.

3 of these run right on the border of Tunisian and Sicily channel permits the same as Sambuca .. just further north perhaps a few 1000 km's north west of Sambuca ...

Sambuca permit number is GR15-PU .. DYOR research to find exactly where they sit ... i have ...

So what is shell doing in the same waters as ADX ????

Jean-Pierre Tallon, Relationship Manager and Country Chair, Shell Italia E&P, commented,
"We view the Sicily Channel acreage as having significant potential and see this as an excellent opportunity to leverage our geological and operational knowledge of the Italian thrust belt in a new theatre of activity."
