CALGARY, Sept. 7, 2017 /CNW/ - Alvopetro Energy Ltd.
(TSX-V:ALV) announces that we have completed drilling our 177(A1) well on Block 177 in the Tucano basin in the State of Bahia,
Brazil. The 177(A1) well was drilled to a total measured depth of 1,100 metres and did not
discover commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. We plan to abandon the well. The 177(A1) well satisfies approximately
half of our current phase exploration work commitment for this block, subject to the approval of the National Agency of
Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels ("ANP").
Alvopetro Energy Ltd.'s vision is to be the premier independent exploration and production company in
Brazil, maximizing shareholder value by applying innovation to underexploited opportunities. Our
strategy is to focus on three core opportunities including lower risk development drilling on our mature fields, shallow
conventional exploration, and the development of the significant hydrocarbon potential present in our deep Gomo tight-gas
resource play. Our efforts in the near-term are concentrated on building a natural gas business by finalizing a mandatory
unitization process and securing a gas sales contract for our Caburé natural gas field.
