Zenith Energy generated gross revenues from oil and natural gas of 2.651 million Canadian dollars (2018 – 3.803 million Canadian dollars) and from electricity $305,000 Canadian dollars (2018 – 321,000 Canadian dollars) in the six months ended September 30, 2019.

On October 1, 2015, the Company acquired cogeneration equipment and facilities which has enabled the company to produce electricity from the natural gas produced from the Masseria Vincelli 1 well, and to sell its electricity production directly into the national energy grid. The Company’s share of estimated total proved plus probable natural gas net reserves were assessed at 16,280 Mmscf and condensate net reserves were assessed at 255 Mbbls as of March 31, 2019.
