CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - June 18, 2013) - Petrominerales (TSX: PMG) (BVC:PMGC) announces an operational update highlighted by our Curito-1 discovery well that tested over 5,900 barrels of oil per day ("bopd").
Curito Discovery, Casanare Este Block, Central Llanos Basin, Colombia (100% WI)
The Curito-1 exploration well was drilled to target depth of 10,390 feet. We cased the well based on our petrophysical interpretation and performed initial tests using a progressive cavity pump ("PCP") in the following four intervals:
-- the Ubaque test averaged 69 barrels per day of 14.5 degree API oil at a
86 percent water-cut over a 44 hour period;
-- the Gacheta test averaged 93 barrels per day of 14.3 degree API oil at a
52 percent water-cut over a 65 hour period;
-- the Mirador test averaged 162 barrels per day of 29.4 degree API oil at
a 70 percent water-cut over a 27 hour period; and
-- the Carbonera C7 test averaged 593 barrels per day of 34.3 degree API
oil at an eight percent water-cut over a 43 hour period.
Following analysis of the test results, we equipped the well with an electric submersible pump ("ESP") and initiated a production test of the C7 formation. The well produced an average of 5,973 bopd at a two percent water-cut over 10 hours. Due to limited fluid storage and facilities on site, the ESP was turned off, and the well has been flowing under natural flow conditions for the last four days at a stabilized rate of over 2,700 bopd at less than one percent water-cut. We plan to evaluate the well over a long-term production test to determine the potential size and additional follow-up locations of this new multi-zone discovery.

Total production 21,105 22,063 (4)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our second quarter to-date production averaged 21,105 bopd, representing a four percent decrease over the first quarter primarily due to shut-in production of approximately 700 bopd for well servicing and natural declines that exceeded production additions in the period. The majority of our new production was added late in the quarter in June, and as a result our current production is over 24,000 bopd. The main production additions were:
-- Orito-197 that is producing over 1,400 bopd (our working interest);
-- Mantis-4 and Mantis-5 that are currently contributing over 1,400 bopd
combined; and
-- Curito-1 that is producing over 2,700 bopd.
In addition, we are currently evaluating two wells that could add production early in July, Taya-2 and Orito-Norte.
Mantis Oil Field, Casimena Block, Central Llanos Basin, Colombia (100% WI)
We drilled two wells, Mantis-4 and Mantis-5 that were not included in our December 31, 2012 reserve report. Mantis-4 confirmed a southwest extension to the field in both the Upper and Lower Mirador Formations. The well was placed on production and to-date has averaged 355 barrels per day of 13 degree API oil at a 93 percent water-cut. Mantis-5 is an in-fill location that was placed on production in June and to-date has averaged 1,080 barrels per day of 14 degree API oil at a 50 percent water-cut. We are currently drilling Mantis-6, a well intended to test a northern extension of the Mantis field.
Orito, Putumayo Basin, Colombia
We recommenced our Orito development drilling program in December 2012 and have drilled four wells to-date targeting the Villeta Formation. Our most recent well, Orito-197, was brought on production in early June and is producing over 1,400 bopd of 26 degree API oil with less than one percent water-cut. Currently, Orito-Norte is being completed and Orito-151 is drilling.
Canaguaro Acquisition Closed
We are pleased to announce that we have closed our previously announced acquisition of an 87.5 percent interest in the Canaguaro Block, pending final ANH approval.
Petrominerales acquired the Canaguaro Block for a cash consideration of US$15.95 million, plus a commitment to carry our joint venture partner on their first US$5.3 million of costs. The Canaguaro Block has one producing oil field, proven reserves and exploration potential.
As previously disclosed, our acquisition of the Canaguaro Block is strategic for a number of reasons, including accretive transaction metrics of $24.57 per barrel of proved plus probable reserves, the addition of 2.3 million barrels of proved plus probable reserves, over 400 bopd of additional production and providing a contiguous area of underexplored land located adjacent to our Blocks 25 and 31. We believe the Canaguaro Block is on the same fault trend as other oil fields to the south of the block, including the Balay discovery and our Corcel and Guatiquia discoveries.
OUTLOOK
For the remainder of 2013, we plan to drill up to 18 wells, balanced between development drilling opportunities and high-impact exploration. Our plan includes:
-- Continuing development drilling programs at our Orito and Neiva blocks,
drilling up to two more wells at Orito and up to six wells at Neiva;
-- Drilling up to two wells on our Central Llanos acreage focusing on
appraisal and development wells at our Mantis oil field and new
discovery at Curito;
-- Drilling up to four exploration wells in Llanos Basin of Colombia
targeting three new Deep Llanos prospects and one lower risk drilling
location on our recently acquired Canaguaro Block;
-- Drilling Mochelo Sur horizontal well to validate our heavy oil
commercial production plan;
-- Drilling our first two wells in Brazil targeting a large, tight oil
resource on our newly acquired lands;
-- Exposure to the first of two high-impact exploration prospects to be
drilled by our joint venture partner in Peru at no cost to
Petrominerales as we are carried on the cost of these wells by our joint
venture partner; and
-- Continue the formal process to pursue opportunities to monetize our
pipeline assets.
We look forward to updating our shareholders on our progress throughout 2013.
Petrominerales Ltd. is an international oil and gas company operating in Latin America since 2002. Our high-quality land base and multi-year inventory of exploration and development opportunities in Colombia, Peru and Brazil provide long-term growth potential for years to come.

FREMONT, Calif., June 18, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Broadband Forum today released BroadbandSuite 6.2, which establishes a fiber interoperability test plan and offers new options to accelerate G-PON deployments within the broadband industry. This comes at a time when fiber is the fastest growing access technology around the globe, and offers global new verification tools to simplify equipment selection and better keep up with intense market demands for stable and high speed broadband networks.
BroadbandSuite 6.2 builds on the Forum's BBF.247 ONU Certification Program which is widely endorsed by major network operators deploying G-PON across the world and responds to the industry's need for interoperability to help speed the widespread adoption of fiber based networks. It assures that G-PON equipment meets service provider requirements for efficient network operations and high quality broadband access options.
"Service providers need world class, market-ready ONUs and network interoperability," said Robin Mersh, CEO of the Broadband Forum. "To reduce the cost of fiber rollouts, providers want standards-verified fiber products. With a reliable certification program, testing burdens decrease, and more vendors can ship interoperable products, which means a reduced time to market."
BroadbandSuite 6.2 is a vital resource of global test plans, including the rigorous BBF.247 and the new OLT/ONU interoperability test suite. BBF.247 verifies the conformance of G-PON ONU devices to the ITU-T G.998 G-PON standard and to the Broadband Forum TR-156 specifications. With this new release, the BBF.247 test plan now offers new options for verifying ONUs against multiple VLAN profiles and functionality tests.
This release also includes two pending technical reports: a new test plan for XG-PON1 (WT-309), as well as a new PON Optical Layer management report (WT-287). WT-287 looks at how to optimize a multi-service PON network catering to both business and residential customers. It covers system architecture, use cases, functional requirements and interoperability requirements. The specifications in WT-287 apply to both ITU-T and IEEE PON systems.
The BroadbandSuite 6.2 release includes:IR-247: GPON ONU Conformance Test Plan (detailed version, available to members only)ATP-247: Abstract GPON ONU Conformance Test Plan (summary of IR-247, publicly available) TR-255: G-PON Interoperability Test PlanWT-309: XG-PON1 Physical layer Interoperability Test Plan (in final development)WT-287: PON Optical Layer Management (in final development)
Additional fiber-related work in development at the Broadband Forum:
- ONU deployment requirements for XG-PON1
- Fiber to the Distribution Point (FTTdp) requirements and architecture work
The latest company with a product to successfully pass BBF.247 issue 2 is Lantiq, a leading supplier of broadband access and home networking technologies. Dirk Wieberneit, Lantiq Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) Business Unit, commented on the milestone: "The continued expansion of fiber networks worldwide and the accelerating transition from EPON to GPON to provide better performance and QoS is backed by the standards certification of the Broadband Forum. We are extremely proud to offer cutting edge GPON solutions with our FALC™ ON GPON System on Chip, which is fully compliant with the BBF.247 ONU certification, to enable our customers to maintain their technology leadership in the high growth market of FTTx deployments."
Commenting further, Mersh added: "This expanded Broadband Forum G-PON Certification Program provides the breakthrough step to accelerate deployment now, and to create an interoperable platform for future-proof development in new fiber networks."
The Broadband Forum has approved an independent testing laboratory to conduct BBF.247 ONU certification. The approved lab is LAN Laboratories, based in France and China.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) June 17, 2013
Windows XP was released by Microsoft in 2001 as a follow up to the lack buster Windows ME. Even though at first it was received poorly by the computer world, it was eventually widely adopted by consumers all over the world. It took over the computer world aided by its ease of use and general reliability. It was a robust operating system and it still is in use by a large percentage of consumers and businesses all over the world. Its longevity is impressive, however, Microsoft would go as far as to pay users to get rid of it if their shareholders agreed.
Telx Computers, IT Service Miami, reviews Windows XP as old and obsolete. According to Telx, Windows XP is filled with security vulnerabilities and holes. It is an old and decrepit operating system. Millions of users all over the world keep getting viruses and system crashes because they are still using an operating system which is the favorite target of hackers and Internet threats. On the other hand, its follower, Windows 7 (Forget Windows Vista existed), is so much more secure and robust. It is not only slicker than Windows XP, but so much safer also. Windows 7 is a new operating system built from the ground up. It features security features that Windows XP could only dream about. The user experience is generally better and more solid. Programs run faster and the system resources are used more wisely.
Generally speaking, users will deny the fact that they need to upgrade their operating system, says Telx. Yes, Windows 7 will require more memory and processor speed. So if the user’s computer hardware is not up to date, Windows 7 will demand an upgrade of the hardware also. But we are not in 2001 anymore and every workstation should have hardware strong enough to run Windows 7. The bump from XP to 7 will also demand some input from the user as it involves a slight learning curve. But generally speaking users can get accustomed with Windows 7 in a couple of hours, according to Telx.
For those who are still rocking Windows XP on a workstation, consider getting in touch with Telx computers, one of the leading IT companies in Miami, to upgrade to a better path. The process is easy enough and it will save countless hours in the future by avoiding system crashes, information loss, and security breaches that could compromise important business data.
