FieldPoint¨s President and CEO, Ray Reaves, said ìWe are extremely pleased to announce record earnings for the third quarter of 2004. We were able to fully capitalize on the recent strength in oil prices by remaining un-hedged and we are looking forward to a strong year-end.î ìWe continue to vigorously pursue additional acquisition and drilling targets that will help foster future growth. With this goal in mind, the Company has entered into a farm-out agreement concerning section 14 of its Lea County, New Mexico acreage. The agreement calls for drilling of the first well to begin on or before March 30, 2005, and entitles the Company to be covered risk free for the drilling cost of approximately $1,300,000 in the first well and to share 20% of the completion cost, only if the well is economically viable. The Company will have approximately a 20% working interest in the well, with the possibility of up to three more wells to be drilled on the Company¨s leasehold.î FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation is engaged in oil and gas exploration, production and acquisition, primarily in New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming.
