Next Bridge Hydrocarbons, Inc. has announced in a new press release that it has drilled another 5 successful wells in the Orogrande. The company also announced it has completed the distribution of shares of common stock to all of the brokers of record at the time of the Spin-Off.
Clifton DuBose, Jr., Next Bridge’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to report the completion of five new wells in the Orogrande Prospect in advance of the March 31, 2023 deadline under our University Lands lease requirement. The data collected from these five wells, in addition to the five wells drilled in 2021, confirmed that there are at least five potential distinct reservoirs under our acreage. Also, our operations team deployed a new mist drilling solution which increased hole stability, which we believe will result in meaningful cost savings for additional wells drilled in the Orogrande Prospect.

“While these five wells may have potential to produce hydrocarbons to sell commercially in the future, we have no immediate plans to deploy the additional capital necessary to sell production from these wells to third parties. Instead, we plan to use the results from these wells to determine our drilling plans for future wells, including reservoir locations, target depths and designated acreage, in the Orogrande Prospect,” concluded DuBose.
The Company also provided an update on the distribution of shares following the recent Next Bridge spin-off from Meta Materials (“Meta” and the “Spin Off”). American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”), the registrar and transfer agent for Meta and Next Bridge, has notified the Company that it has completed the distribution of shares of common stock to all of the brokers of record at the time of the Spin-Off. If your broker is not showing your shares in your brokerage account, it is not because your broker has not received the shares from AST.
