Illinois Basin
The Illinois
Basin has been the focal point for Pioneer Oil Company since its inception
nearly 35 years ago. At the office, we maintain approximately 800 well records
for this region. We continue to explore this area for further development
opportunities. Pioneer has established itself in the region as a company
committed to domestic oil and gas production and environmental protection. We have been
involved in several projects to improve the Illinois Basin. To this end,
Pioneer has donated thousands of dollars to the Orphan Well Project, a project
aimed at plugging abandoned wells and cleaning up the affected areas.
Pioneer Oil
Company is an active participant in the Indiana Oil and Gas Association (INOGA)
and the Illinois Oil and Gas Association (IOGA). Pioneer has supported varying
projects with these organizations through financial support, advertising, and
time. We look forward to our continued association with these organizations.
Kansas
Pioneer Oil
Company, Inc. has ventured into the gas industry by operating several wells in
Kansas. Pioneer anticipates
expanding the operations in this area. As such, Pioneer is commencing two
new prospects, with anticipation of exploration activities commencing early
2008.
