“Part blocks” 98/13 and 98/14 border the company’s existing onshore licences on the island itself.

The company’s subsidiary NP Solent will hold 62.5 per cent of the licences and is the operator.

The other shareholders are Magellan Petroleum (22.5 per cent),Encore Oil Plc (7.5 per cent), Montrose Industries (5 per cent) and Oil & Gas Investments (2.5 per cent).

Managing director Derek Musgrove said: "We are very pleased to have been offered part blocks 98/13 and 98/14. 

“This allows the joint venture to evaluate the oil and gas potential of the mapped well defined prospect that extends from the Isle of Wight into the English Channel.” 

One of Northern’s offshore blocks butts up against two of the five licences acquired by Wessex Exploration and its partner Norwest Energy of Australia.

They are building up acreage around Wytch Farm, Britain’s largest onshore oil discovery.

Analysis of the test results, which included the use of a jet pump to assist oil flow, will allow the firm to predict oil and gas production rates.

The firm said production facilities can then be designed to meet the potential for both oil and gas.

Simultaneously, work will also be carried out on an oil marketing plan.

Northern said today that it is currently projected that production could be achieved in 2012 or 2013, subject to required statutory approvals.

Managing director Derek Musgrove said: "The long wait for permissions to conduct this test as we desired has been
rewarded.

"Following the anticipated confirmation of commerciality, we look forward to bringing the field on stream as soon as possible to augment our existing production in The Netherlands."

Earlier this month, the company announced it had sold its interest in the Vinkega gas field in the Netherlands for €3.2 million

Discovered after the Vinkega-1 well was drilled in late 2009, the Vinkega field has been mapped as underlying both part of the Gorredijk licence (owned by Vermilion Oil & Gas Netherlands) and part of the Drenthe III licence, in which Northern Petroleum Nederland holds a stake.

“The sale will enable a smooth transition into production under Vermilion's team and make a useful financial contribution to our hopefully successful exploration activities on the Drenthe III licence in the near future,” Musgrove had told investors.

“Northern considered that Vinkega was not a prospect of sufficient size and structural appeal to have attracted a wildcat well on the Drenthe III licence alone."

<![CDATA[News - Northern Petroleum sells interest in Dutch gas field for €3.2 million ]]> http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/36718/northern-petroleum-sells-interest-in-dutch-gas-field-for-32-million-36718.html

Europe-focused oil and gas explorer Northern Petroleum (LON:NOP) announced this morning that it has sold its interest in the Vinkega gas field in the Netherlands for €3.2 million

Discovered after the Vinkega-1 well was drilled in late 2009, the Vinkega field has been mapped as underlying both part of the Gorredijk licence (owned by Vermilion Oil & Gas Netherlands) and part of the Drenthe III licence, in which Northern Petroleum Nederland holds a stake.

The firm said today that all of the Drenthe III licence holders have agreed to the sale of their respective Drenthe III interests in the Vinkega field to Vermilion, with Northern Petroleum Nederland’s share of the consideration being €3.2 million. 70 percent of the purchase price has already been paid on signing of the sale and purchase agreement, with the remaining 30 per cent being payable following completion.

“The sale will enable a smooth transition into production under Vermilion's team and make a useful financial contribution to our hopefully successful exploration activities on the Drenthe III licence in the near future,” said Derek Musgrove, Northern Petroleum’s managing director. “Northern considered that Vinkega was not a prospect of sufficient size and structural appeal to have attracted a wildcat well on the Drenthe III licence alone. On behalf of the Drenthe III licence interest holders I thank Vermilion and their partners for their work and efforts.”
