ZaZa Energy Corporation provided an operational update concerning its East Texas development Josey Wales #1HR. The company is preparing to test commingled production from two different types of completion approaches within the well's lateral: open-hole completion that has been stimulated with acid and a 14-stage limited cased stimulation designed to fracture a controlled area around the well bore. The company has completed the drilling of its new Colburn #3H well targeting one of the deeper formations in the area.

The Colburn #3H is currently awaiting completion operations, which are scheduled to commence by the end of December. ZaZa's current East Texas acreage holding is estimated to be 158,000 gross acres and ~41,200 net acres, comprised of 30,200 net acres within the EOG JV and ~11,000 wholly-owned net acres (subject to completion of elections).
