(\"Sonoro\" or \"the Company\") (TSX-V: SNV), is pleased to announce that its representatives have met with SKKMIGAS, Indonesia's national oil and gas regulator, and confirmed a revised schedule for Sonoro's Budong Budong Production Sharing Contract (PSC) appraisal well program in the province of West Sulawesi.\n\n \n \nThe schedule calls for drilling of the LG-1 Up-dip well during the second half of September, testing in October, and time for further evaluation of results, if necessary thereafter.
