STW Obtains Permitting To Produce Water From the Capitan Reef Water Aquifer
STW's Permit Allows For the Drilling of the Second and Third Development Wells Pursuant to Their Lease Agreement with the City of Fort Stockton
MIDLAND, Texas, Sept. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- STW Resources Holding Corp. (OTC QB: STWS) obtained approval from the Middle Pecos Groundwater District to drill two additional development water wells to further define the extent of the water aquifer. Test wells studied by a recent hydrogeological report shows potential production of 100+ million gallons per day for up to 100+ years, STW will drill and complete these production wells and run their own flow rates along with other criteria to determine the parameters of the reservoir. Another hydrogeological study will then be performed. This project is pursuant to the recent signing of a lease agreement on municipal land to drill multiple water wells to produce and market water from the Capitan Reef Water Aquifer.
STW will provide this water to several local west Texas municipalities and industrial customers. The company holds the to right sell water contracts to beneficial users for up to 30 years or the life of the contracts agreed upon. The project is divided into three phases with the initial phase cost at approximately $18 million; the company is currently negotiating terms with investors for partnering and/or financing.
Initially, STW and the city of Ft. Stockton have agreed to build multiple water stations to provide water for industrial customers. Simultaneously the company is contracting a 189-mile pipeline through the Permian Basin in west Texas to provide water to 9 communities. Water will be sold and transported through the pipeline during construction to towns and beneficial end users along the route. We hope to pipeline it to San Angelo and then put the extra in an already existing pipeline that goes to Midland, Odessa, and several other communities that currently takes water to them for their municipal use. This will enable west Texas to prosper and grow without the worries of having enough water for its citizens and industry.
Alan Murphy the President of STW Water stated, "This joint effort between STW and the City of Fort Stockton will provide water to thousands of West Texans and not to mention create revenues for the town." "This project is moving along as planned."
STW Resources CEO Stanley Weiner stated, "I'm excited to see this project moving along so well. It is a major project with a lot of moving parts but everything is going as planned. Being a native west Texan, this is a project that I've been dreaming of since I formed the company. We have three goals: clean up brackish and oilfield produced and flowback water for use in the oilfields (thus preserving our precious fresh water resources), process brackish water for municipal by west Texas citizens, and reclaim any other types of contaminated waters for reuse. After all, the name of the company is STW ("Save the Water") Resources."
