Unicorp, Inc. said Monday that operations have begun to drill its Melville Prospect located in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana. The Melville Prospect will be drilled to a depth of approximately 8,000 feet to test the Nodosaria oil sand. Total reserves are estimated to be 1,750,000 barrels of oil. Unicorp will have a 12.33% working interest and an approximate 10% net revenue interest in the well.

"We are on track to drill this during the month of December as previously announced," stated Arthur Ley, COO of Unicorp. "We continue to focus on low risk prospects that can add long term cash flow to our company."
