For those who haven’t heard of Centurion:

Centurion Energy International Inc. was an international oil and gas company engaged in oil and gas exploration and production with properties located in Egypt, Tunisia and offshore West Africa. The company was incorporated in 1997 and built a solid reserve base of over 97 million boe and production of 32,000 boe/d. Centurion was headquartered in Calgary, Alberta. In January 2007, the company was sold to Dana Gas for $12.00 per share.
