DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
April 30, 2009 - Questerre announces vertical shale
well success
Calgary, Alberta - Questerre Energy Corporation
("Questerre" or the "Company") (OSE,TSX:QEC)
announced preliminary test results from its program
in the St. Lawrence Lowlands, Quebec.
Two prospective shale zones in St. David #1 were
fracture stimulated in a single operation. On a 17-
day test, the well flowed at a stabilized rate of 450
mcf/d. Based on an analysis of the production logs,
this flow rate is interpreted to be primarily from a
single zone. The well is currently shut-in for
buildup to gather additional pressure data.
Michael Binnion, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Questerre, commented, "450 mcf/d from a
single frac in a vertical well is excellent for an
emerging shale play. This result correlates with the
over 800 mcf/d test last August from the same zone in
Gentilly #1. We look forward to drilling our first
horizontal well with multi-stage fracs targeting this
zone which we are confident will significantly
increase the rates."
Questerre also updated the status of recent testing
on Gentilly #1 and La Visitation #1.
The Lorraine formation was successfully frac'd in
Gentilly #1. Sustained gas flows were achieved
encouraging further work to assess this potential.
Three prospective shale zones in La Visitation #1
were stage fracture stimulated early this winter. Two
zones in the Utica formation flowed at a preliminary
rate of approximately 300 mcf/d over a five-day test
period. Production logging indicates the majority of
the flow is from the same zone as the successes at
St. David #1 and Gentilly #1. Testing was affected by
flow back of proppant and frac fluids and further
analysis is necessary to fully evaluate the results.
Mr. Binnion added, "Overall we think this program is
delivering tremendous results. We have one zone with
three vertical successes over a broad geographic
area. While early, this zone exhibits the
characteristics required to carry a commercial
development. Two other zones show good promise and we
expect further engineering work will unlock their
potential."
Questerre also reported that the operator has begun
work on a seismic acquisition program in the
Lowlands. The 2-D data will target several areas for
prospective pilot pads that could include multiple
horizontal wells.
Questerre is a Calgary-based independent resource
company actively engaged in the exploration,
development and acquisition of high-impact
exploration and development oil and gas projects in
Canada.

reasonable by the Company at the time of preparation,
may prove to be incorrect. These forward-looking

achieved will be the same as those forecasted herein.
Barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") amounts may be
misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe

burner tip and does not necessarily represent an
economic value equivalent at the wellhead.

Det er vel egentlig ganske flot at aktien stiger pænt på den meddelelse. Med Binnions vanlige optimisme i baghovedet er den jo ikke "fantastisk". Måske det blot er et tegn på at markedet pt. slet ikke indregner noget fra St.Lawrence i kursen.
Glæder mig sgu til den dag hvor de kommer med en meddelelse om resultaterne fra en multistage frac'ed horisontal brønd.....

Calgary, Alberta -- Questerre Energy Corporation (“Questerre” or the “Corporation”) (TSX,OSE:QEC) announces that it has adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the “Rights Plan”) effective immediately. The Rights Plan must be ratified by shareholders at Questerre’s 2009 annual meeting, which is scheduled for June 9, 2009, failing which it will cease to have effect. Upon ratification by Questerre shareholders, the Rights Plan will continue in effect for an initial term of three years and is subject to reconfirmation by shareholders at the third annual meeting held after each confirmation.
The Rights Plan is designed both to encourage the fair and equal treatment of Questerre’s shareholders in connection with any potential take-over bid and to ensure that Questerre’s shareholders and its Board of Directors, in compliance with corporate and securities laws, have sufficient time to consider whether there are other options that would more effectively maximize shareholder value. The Rights Plan is not intended to deter take-over proposals. The terms of the Rights Plan are similar to those in rights plans recently approved by shareholders of other Canadian corporations. Questerre is not aware of any specific take-over bid for the Corporation in process or currently being contemplated.
The rights issued to shareholders under the Rights Plan become exercisable when a person, together with any parties related to it, acquires or announces its intention to acquire, 20% or more of the Corporation’s outstanding common shares without complying with the “Permitted Bid” provisions of the Rights Plan or without approval of Questerre’s Board of Directors. Should such an acquisition occur each right would entitle a holder, other than the acquiring person or persons related to it, to purchase common shares of Questerre at a significant discount to the then current market price. A “Permitted Bid” is a bid made to all Questerre shareholders that is open for at least 60 days. If at the end of the 60 day period more than 50% of Questerre’s then outstanding common shares, other than those common shares owned by the party making the bid and certain related persons, have been tendered to the bid, such party may take up and pay for the common shares but must extend the bid for a further 10 business days to allow other shareholders to tender.
The rights issued under the Rights Plan will initially attach to and trade with Questerre’s common shares and no separate certificates will be issued unless an event triggering these rights occurs. A copy of the Rights Plan will be filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Binnion er rædselslagen for fjendtligt opkøb til disse lave kurser. Finanskrisen og faldet i naturgasprisen har gjort mange aktionærer møre og villige til at sælge. Jeg er 100 % overbevist om at spillet i kulisserne er startet nu og der muligvis kommer et bud som mange aktionærer kan have svært ved at sige nej til. Det er denne situation Binnion vil forhindre med dette træk.

Ganske enig, collersteen og tak fordi du holder PI opdateret. :)
Jeg har selv været bortrejst siden tordag morgen og ser nu på www. agoracom.com, at Binnion har opjusteret QEC's andel af gassen til 8-10 TCF, og at de nu frygter opkøb bekræfter blot, at vi kommer til at se noget meget perspektivrigt.
Altså alt i alt rigtig gode nyheder - tror jeg.

Stadig fra www.agoracom.com har jeg kopieret dette vedr. Shareholder Rigths Planen:
I'll take a shot at an answer, may not be 100% but close enough...
A bid can come in at any time and the price can be anything, it depends on what the buying company is willing to pay. What the plan does is protect us as shareholders from a lowball hostile takeover.
It protects us from someone or company having 20% of the vote which could potentially hurt maximizing share value. So the day that a company/person indicates that they plan on acquiring 20% of the company, everyone else is able to buy shares at a discount. What this does is further dilute the outstanding shares so suddenly their 20% isn't 20% anymore but maybe 10% or less due to the new shares being issued.
Essentially this forces the buyer to make an offer for all the shares at the same time. It eliminates companies from slowly accumulating stock and when the time comes they already hold a significant part of the company.
Hope this makes sense! If not, feel free to correct me!
Bep
Det ser for mig mere og mere ud til at noget er under opsejling. Om et så er spændende nok eller ej ved jeg ikke. Min plan er at holde QEC i flere år, fordi jeg mener der er et stort langsigtet potentiale.
Hvis der kommer et bud kan denne plan jo også bruges til en aktieudvidelse i stedet for en overtagelse ()efter bestyrelsens afgørelse) eller har jeg misforstået noget ?
Det kræver så at man har kapital til at følge med eller kan sælge tegningsretter for det gælder vel også i denne situation ?
Jeg tror dette vil fremme kursen, altså ikke gift for QEC, men om min fornemmelse er rigtig det ved vi nok straks fra morgenstunden mandag.

Nu er futurepriserne allerede over 5,50 dollar senere i år. En klar forbedring i forhold til futurepriser i starten af sidste uge.

Gasprisen ER kollapset, så det sidste chart kan du godt smide i skrældespanden.

CharlesP. Jeg tror at både du og jeg, har de lidt mere kortsigtede briller på
For de som måske ønsker et lidt mere langsigtede perspektiv, er det vel OK at zoome lidt ud.

Kortsigtet får QEC et gevaldig løft, de professionelle er begyndt deres opkøb. Langsigtet, så kan naturgasprisen ikke holdes i dette lave niveau:
