Zion Oil 2009 Annual Report

Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. filed is 2009 annual report with the SEC on March 16. Among the company’s operation plans for 2010 listed in the 104 page document are plan’s for a fourth well and another possible stock offering.

After CEO Richard Rinberg’s obligatory “Forward Looking Statements” statement (events that haven’t happened yet, haven’t happen and there’s no way of guaranteeing that they will happen, therefore statements about operational plans for the future are ‘forward looking’) the report states:

“As the Ma’anit-Rehoboth #2 well did not reach the Permian geological formation beneath the Joseph license area, we are currently planning to drill a subsequent well, to be named the “Ma’anit-Joseph #3 well”. The Ma’anit-Joseph #3 well is currently anticipated to be drilled in the vicinity of the Ma’anit-Rehoboth #2 well in order to try and reach the Permian target.“

“We believe that our currently available cash resources will be sufficient to finance our plan of operations, as described, through the end of 2010, including the drilling of the planned Ma’anit-Joseph #3 well. To carry out further drilling and maintain operations as presently conducted, we will need to raise additional funds.”

“In order to support our operations and drilling program beyond fiscal year 2010, on January 28, 2010, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 for a shelf offering. As of the filing of this annual report on Form 10-K, the registration statement has not been declared effective. When declared effective by the SEC, Zion will have the option to offer and sell, from time to time in one or more offerings, up to $50 million of common stock, debt securities, warrants to purchase any of these securities, or any combination of such securities. The securities may be offered in one or more offerings, and at prices subject to prevailing market conditions to be set forth in a supplemental prospectus filing with the SEC at the time of such offering, should such an offering occur. We do not currently have any commitments to sell securities.”
