"The formal approval of arrangements for the sale of our  first  production in  Egypt  is a very exciting milestone for Centurion," stated Said Arrata, president and chief executive  officer  of  Centurion  Energy.  "Egypt  has tremendous  production  upside for our company and these approvals allow us to aggressively move forward to  convert  El  Wastani  reserves  into  cash flow." El Wastani No. 2, Centurion's  second  re-entry  well  in  the  field,  was recently  completed for production. The drilling rig moved off the lease on Dec. 5 and it is planned the well will be put on test early this week. The next step  will  be  to  construct  two  pipelines  to  carry  gas  and condensate  to  processing  facilities located 22 kilometres to the west of the El Wastani field. Centurion is planning to drill more wells in  the  El Wastani  area  in  2001-2002  to increase production. Approval to drill the next location, East El Wastani -- located eight kilometres northeast of  El Wastani field, was recently received. Centurion plans to start producing from two wells in the El  Wastani  field by  midyear 2001 at an anticipated initial production rate of approximately 12 million cubic feet a day (1,200 barrels of oil equivalent a day). The El Wastani field is located  on  Centurion's  420,000-acre  El  Manzala concession that is located in Egypt's prolific Nile Delta region. Centurion owns a 100-per-cent working interest in the El Manzala concession. In the Abu Monkar area, located in the southern sector of  the  El  Manzala concession,  Centurion  has  received  preliminary approval for its plan of development for the Abu Monkar discovery, which includes plans to construct a 55-kilometre pipeline to tie-in gas to the national gas line. Centurion's second well in the Abu Monkar  area  has  been  approved  by  the  Egyptian government authorities. Drilling tenders have been sent out, to drill the next locations in  Egypt. The tender package includes three firm wells and four optional wells. It is expected the drilling bids will be received within the next seven days.
