Additional Information on PetroLatina Energy Plc:
PetroLatina Energy Plc (AIM: PELE), formerly known as Taghmen Energy Plc, was founded in 2004. The Company is presently focused on Colombia after the sale of its assets in Guatemala in which it retains a 20% interest in the first three wells and a 20% working interest in future wells. In Colombia, the Company currently holds 40% and 20% interests in the Los Angeles and Santa Lucía fields on the Tisquirama licence respectively, and a 100% interest in the Doña María field. In November 2007 the Company secured the extension of the Tisquirama licence for the economic life of the fields.

PetroLatina also owns the Río Zulia-Ayacucho pipeline in the prolific Catatumbo basin which transports crude oil. Present exploration/exploitation activities in this area should increase the volume of crude oil transported resulting in an increased cash flow.
