Fremont Petroleum Corporation Ltd (ASX: FPL) (“Fremont” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that the Amerigo Vespucci #1 well is flowing back stimulation fluids to surface after completion of a five-stag stimulation operation (see figure 1). This compares to a one-stage stimulation program on the last well, the J.W. Powell. As such, this well has been a much more extensive operation.
