The New Megiddo License 428 (“NML 428”) was initially awarded on December 3, 2020 for a six-month term and was extended several times before expiring on February 1, 2023. Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. filed an amended application with the Israel Ministry of Energy for a new exploratory license on January 24, 2023 covering the same area as its License No. 428, which expired on February 1, 2023. However, its original application to replace License No. 428 was filed on May 11, 2022, and a revised application was filed on August 29, 2022.
Prior to the filing of our last Quarterly Report, we received initial administrative approval from various departments within the Israel Ministry of Energy which puts us in an excellent position to obtain final approval of our license.
We continue our exploration focus here based on our studies as it appears to possess the key geologic ingredients of an active petroleum system with significant exploration potential.
We have finalized the technical and operational preparations for our re-entry of the MJ-01 well.
