/EINPresswire.com/ -- TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec 27, 2017) - Sintana Energy Inc. ("Sintana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SEI) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its non-core assets divesture initiative. The final transaction, the package sale of several relatively minor items, yielded gross proceeds of US $200,000. In total, gross consideration of US $475,000 was received as a result of these non-core asset sales.

Proceeds will be used for regulatory compliance requirements and general corporate matters.

The 67 square miles VMM-37 Block in Colombia's Magdalena Basin is the Company's core asset. Regulatory approval of an environmental permit to hydraulically fracture the Manati Blanco-1, the partnership's initial well on the Block, is the next significant action required before exploration work program operations may again proceed.
