TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Sept. 14, 2009) - Brownstone Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BWN) ("Brownstone") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with AMG Oil Ltd. (OTCBB:AMGOF)(FRANKFURT:AORLB8) ("AMG"). AMG, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Adira Energy Corp. (an Ontario corporation), explores for oil and gas properties.
Pursuant to the LOI, Brownstone will have the right to earn a 15% participating interest in any existing or future oil and gas blocks acquired by AMG in offshore Israel for a three year period commencing July 15, 2009 (the "Term") and shall contribute 15% of all costs associated with such projects, in addition to its expertise and industry experience. The LOI also provides that Brownstone and the Company (the "Parties") will work towards an agreement under which both Parties are entitled to participate in certain new Israeli offshore oil and gas exploration and development blocks the other party may become involved. The terms of the LOI are subject to Israel governmental regulation, including approval from the Israel Petroleum Commissioner.
As announced September 9, 2009, the Company is currently the owner of a petroleum license in offshore Israel (the "Gabriella License") covering a total license area of 390,000 Dunam (approximately - 390 square kilometers or 97,000 acres). The Gabriella License area is centered approximately 10 km off the Israeli coast and stretches from Netanya in the North to Ashdod in the South (about 40 km). The Gabriella License area is in shallow water with a depth of between 80 and 120 meters, and includes the site of an oil well drilled in the early 1990's which had production in the 500-800 barrel per day range, before technical problems and funding issues prevented commercial production. The LOI does not apply to the Adira Energy's existing Eitan License in the Hula Valley which is onshore.
The Parties plan to evaluate the Gabriella License as their first joint exploration opportunity with a view to fulfilling the license obligations.
AMG's Chief Executive Officer, Ilan Diamond stated: "We are very pleased to have Brownstone as our partner as we evaluate the Gabriella License area with a view towards moving the exploration program forward. Brownstone and its principals have extensive experience in the oil and gas industry and bring with them tremendous skill in the specialized area of offshore drilling as well as access to significant capital. We think AMG will benefit from the exciting opportunity in this prospective new frontier of oil and gas exploration in the Mediterranean."
Sheldon Inwentash, CEO of Brownstone stated: "This new partnership with AMG Oil/Adira Energy, provides us with the long awaited opportunity of entering the oil and gas region offshore Israel to assist in the development of Israel's oil and gas resources. With the most recent discovery by the Noble/Delek Consortium less than 60 kilometres away from the Gabriella License, the possibility of significant hydrocarbon reserves exist, and together with our partners, Adira Energy, we believe we have the necessary access to financial and technical resources to maximise the opportunity."
