FTTN Explores Mergers & Acquisitions as a New Expansion Strategy
BRADENTON, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– With two new oil wells scheduled to begin producing in the coming weeks, 2013 is set to be a year of major growth for First Titan Corp. (OTCBB: FTTN). The company announced today that it is now pursuing new asset acquisitions and corporate mergers to facilitate additional expansion this spring.
“While we continue to build our oil and gas asset base, we are evaluating ancillary assets such as transportation infrastructure, marketing platforms and technological innovations that would further compliment the FTTN portfolio,” said CEO Harvey S. Bryant. “We’re particularly interested in working with individuals and companies who own oil and gas assets who would benefit from our development assistance and access to the public markets.”
First Titan is currently evaluating several oil and gas asset acquisitions in Texas as potential additions to the working interests that FTTN currently owns. Drilling preparations are now underway at the company’s lease near South Lake Charles, La., and its horizontal well prospect in Logan County, Okla., is rigged up and ready for completion. FTTN expects to dramatically increase its deal activity in the coming weeks as these projects begin to pay off for the company.
FTTN is dedicated to continuing development of energy assets throughout the country, alongside companies such as Continental Resources, Inc. (NYS: CLR) , Chesapeake Energy Corp. (NYS: CHK) , SandRidge Energy Inc. (NYS: SD) and Ultra Petroleum Corp. (NYS: UPL) .
