CBM Asia Picks NSAI to Audit CBM Resources

CBM Asia Development Corp. said it has selected Netherland, Sewell and Associates, Inc. (NSAI) to audit some of the company’s additional coalbed methane resources in Indonesia.

Based in Houston and Dallas, NSAI is a qualified reserves auditor with extensive experience in coalbed methane (CBM) resource auditing, having worked with most of the top operators in every major producing coal gas basin in the world. NSAI will conduct the audit under Canadian standards for disclosure (National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure For Oil and Gas Activities).

CBM Asia previously selected NSAI to audit its interests in the Sekayu and Kutai West PSC’s which determined a net 981 Bcf of recoverable unrisked prospective gas resource,”stated Alan T. Charuk, the CEO of the company.

These two blocks account for only 6% of the Company’s lease area in Indonesia, while the remaining acreage has not yet been subjected to an independent audit. We believe NSAI’s experience in all major producing coal gas basins worldwide is integral in their ability to deliver qualified and balanced reports on some of our additional CBM interests in Indonesia. Once NSAI has completed its initial review, CBM Asia will provide an estimate for the report’s release. We believe these audits will help to provide empirical evidence to support CBM Asia’s 15 Tcf  net prospective resource target.”
