Joe Merlo Granite Energy, Inc. (OTC: GNGI) (the Company), today announced the completion of drilling operations on the TigerShark #2-12 well, located on the CardShark prospect in Seminole County, Oklahoma. The Company also announced that 4,300 feet of production casing was run and cemented down the hole, and final completion is slated for later this month. Initial drill stem testing indicates IP (initial production) figures could range from 100 to 136 Barrels per day of oil production. "We experienced deviation during drilling operations that set the total depth location approximately 177 feet Northeast of the target. During mud-logging, we identified a fault line that was not indicated on our pre-drill seismic shoot, this fault appears to have proven additional drilling locations within the prospect," stated Granite Energy's Senior Field Engineer, David Hanks.
