丹佛联合资源合作伙伴公司表示，已在堪萨斯州格罗夫县购买了 5 平方英里（3,200 英亩）的土地，以扩大其在中部地区的业务范围。

Allied 表示，计划从 2024 年底开始到明年在该地区钻八口井。

联合资源合作伙伴公司总裁里奇·塔巴卡 (Rich Tabaka) 在 8 月 22 日的新闻稿中表示：“这 8 口初始油井可能标志着一个油田的开发开端，该油田将产出数百万桶石油。”

该公司表示，7 月份已在新收购的土地上进行了 3D 地震勘测。Allied 公司的地球物理学家团队正在处理勘测数据，该公司正在审查初步结果。

“现在我们已经进行了地震勘探，正急切地等待数据。根据我们毗邻的土地面积，我们相信将会发现一个重要的石油圈闭，”塔巴卡说。“上一次 3D 地震勘探的所有迹象都表明，该构造延伸到这片新的土地。我们迅速采取行动，确保获得这些租约，特别是在确定了毗邻的石油构造之后。”

Allied 表示，它致力于推进其在堪萨斯州的勘探工作，并将在新数据的获取下继续审查和改进其方法。

Denver’s Allied Resource Partners said it has purchased 5 square miles, or 3,200 acres, in Grove County, Kansas, to expand its operational footprint in the Midcontinent region.

Allied said it intends to drill eight wells in the area, beginning at the end of 2024 through next year.

"These 8 initial wells could be the start of developing a field that will produce multiple millions of barrels of oil," Rich Tabaka, president of Allied Resource Partners, said in an Aug. 22 press release.

The company said that in July it had conducted a 3D seismic survey across the newly acquired acreage. Survey data is being processed by Allied’s team of geophysicists and the company is reviewing the preliminary findings.

"Now that we have shot the seismic, we are eagerly awaiting the data. Based on our adjoining acreage, we believe a significant oil trap will be identified,” Tabaka said. “All indications from the last 3D seismic shoot suggest that the structure continues into this new acreage. We moved quickly to secure these leases, especially after identifying an oil structure adjacent to it."

Allied said it is committed to advancing its exploration efforts in Kansas and will continue to review and refine its approach as new data becomes available.
