Sonoma Energy Capital, LLC New Drilling Project in Southern Illinois

Carmi, IL, February 18, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Sonoma Energy Capital is drilling its 3rd well, the Maunie #3 in the heart of an "Oil Boom", in Southern Illinois. Sonoma Energy Capital, LLC is an independent oil and gas developer drilling and producing oil wells in the Southern Illinois Basin. Sonoma Energy Capital is on the cutting edge of a literal "Oil Boom." Many of the major oil and gas companies that had once left the Illinois basin in search of larger oil plays are now returning. "We have seen a tremendous amount of activity in the last year, with a huge spike in drilling permits in both Illinois and Indiana," according to Sonoma Energy Capital, LLC, President Bob Nelson. It is an exciting time for the Southern Illinois area as more and more exploration and production takes place. The revitalization is partly due to new methods of extracting oil and the significant increase in overall production from both new and existing wells. Sonoma Energy Capital intends to increase its holdings in the Southern Illinois and Indiana area.
