FTTN Plans to Spud Second Well Before Year's End

BRADENTON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- With production already exceeding expectations at its new well in Alabama, First Titan Corp. (OTCBB: FTTN) plans to begin drilling a second well before year's end.

The next well will be located in Lake Boeuf Field in Lafourche Parish, La. FTTN owns a working interest in the prospect, a directional well with a total vertical depth of 12,025 feet. Its estimated reserves total 11 billion cubic feet of natural gas and 880,000 barrels of condensate.

Most encouragingly, the prospect is directly updip, or up slope within the same reservoir, of wells that have produced 3.5 billion cubic feet of gas and 352,000 barrels of oil.

"We're very excited about this well's production potential," said FTTN CEO Robert Federowicz. "The project's financing is almost complete, and we plan to get it spudded as soon as possible."

The Lake Boeuf Field prospect is the fifth working interest in a prospective U.S. oil and gas well that FTTN has acquired in the past year. With production now underway at the company's well in Alabama, FTTN will continue to aggressively pursue new and potentially lucrative oil and gas leases up and down the Gulf Coast.
