GALILEO PETROLEUM 
By Portal Resources Establishes Oil Production at its Salt Lake Project in Saskatchewan and Acquires Land in Provost, Alberta
Salt Lake Project - Oil Production Established
Portal has now drilled and completed two horizontal wells, one vertical well and two well re-entries at its Salt Lake Project. Three wells were tested and brought on stream during the month of June, achieving combined average production of 130 bopd (33 bopd net to Portal) for the month. The fourth well was brought on production in the first week of July and is being monitored. The fifth well requires additional completion testing. Portal encountered startup delays due to abnormally wet weather conditions in the area.
Salt Lake Project - Additional Horizontal Wells Planned
Planning is underway to continue development drilling on the Salt Lake Project with up to four additional horizontal wells anticipated prior to year-end. The timing of the new wells will be dependent on permitting and drill rig availability.
Portal has a 25% working interest in the Salt Lake Project, which covers six sections of land (3,840 acres) near the town of Macklin in West Central Saskatchewan. The Birdbear oil play is a carbonate/dolomite formation that correlates to the Nisku formation in Alberta. The formation lies at a depth of approximately 800 meters with a pay zone of four to seven meters of 12° API oil. Horizontal wells drilled in Saskatchewan qualify for the provincial drilling incentive program (2.5% royalty on the first 100,000 barrels of oil).
Acquisitions
Portal has acquired, through Crown land auctions, 3.2 sections of land (2,048 acres) in the Provost area of Alberta, subject to a 6% gross over-riding royalty (GORR) and provincial royalties. The prospect is a Mannville channel play of medium gravity oil and natural gas. Portal is now in the process of reviewing available seismic data, finalizing plans to re-enter or re-complete existing wells to test productivity and pursuing the possibility of acquiring offsetting lands.
Additionally, Portal has acquired a 50% working interest in two sections of land (1,280 acres) in the Primate, Saskatchewan area. An evaluation of existing seismic data indicates two potential Mannville oil channel locations with additional offset locations. A development strategy is underway involving the acquisition of additional lands, 3-D seismic data and identification of additional drilling locations. Portal anticipates drilling operations on the lands will commence following a 3-D seismic program in the first quarter of 2012. The analog pool to which the play is being modeled has produced in excess of 1.5 million stock tank barrels (MMstb) to date. Portal continues to evaluate and pursue several additional acquisitions in Western Canada.
