Tethys believes there is significant additional potential in the North Urtabulak field and is currently evaluating other targets for horizontal drilling. In addition to the North Urtabulak oil field Tethys believes it has an opportunity to acquire additional development and exploration projects in Uzbekistan, a country it regards as having great long term potential to add value to shareholders.

Tethys is focused on oil and gas exploration and production activities in Central Asia with activities currently in the Republics of Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. This highly prolific oil and gas area is rapidly developing and Tethys believes that significant potential exists in both exploration and in discovered deposits.
