2018.05.16 SNV Blox Bitcoin

Sonoro Energy Ltd. (“SNV”) is pleased to announce that, in partnership with Blox Labs Inc. (“BLOX”), BLOX has commenced development of “PetroBLOX”, a Blockchain-based smart contract supply chain management platform for the global oil and gas industry.

Through the utilization of best in class smart contracts and decentralized application technologies, PetroBLOX will aim to enable and enhance workflow, maximize project management efficiency, and increase the level of transparency in the global Exploration and Production (“E&P”) space. With applications to both the upstream and downstream verticals of the oil and gas sector, PetroBLOX will endeavor to assist and ease bottlenecks ranging from permitting, planning, procurement, to rig mobilization and de-mobilization, all the way through to end-product commodity trading. Phase 1 development of PetroBLOX has begun and will include, among other things, refining project scope and modeling itemization, an environmental scan of the E&P industry status quo, PetroBLOX branding, and the completion of a Blockchain Whitepaper.

“BLOX is pleased to have entered into this partnership with Sonoro Energy whereby their expertise in the various facets of the oil and gas sector will bring valuable input to the development of PetroBLOX”, stated Jeff Zanini, President & CEO of BLOX. “Our Ethereum backed smart contract platform will greatly benefit the supply chain flow and increase efficiencies to an industry which is largely still reliant on manual processes. Our clients vision of digitization and enabling immutable record keeping is visionary in this space, and we are pleased to partner with Sonoro Energy on this project."

Chris Atkinson, Chairman of Sonoro Energy stated “We are excited to be entering into a partnership with BLOX, that possesses and brings valuable information and expertise in Block Chain technology. This is a strategic move for Sonoro that will further enable and enhance our operational leverage in executing projects in SE Asia."

The Company also announces the resignation of David Robinson from the Board of Directors. The Company thanks Mr. Robinson for his valued contributions to Sonoro in the past and wishes him the best with his future endeavors.
