GFI Solutions

GFI Solutions provides TerraLam Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) Access mats for rental or purchase. We have service locations and highly skilled personnel strategically located across Western Canada​ to ensure your specifications are met. Safety is always our top priority – GFI’s TerraLam mats have a rough solid top surface which eliminates tripping hazards associated with traditional mats which have gaps between the boards. No risk of puncture injuries or vehicle damage due to bolts protruding out of damaged mats. NO DAMAGE & NO REPLACEMENT COST GUARANTEE Our matting is so strong we won’t charge for ANY damage or replacement costs. With the most efficient crews in the industry backed by 24/7 service and support your mats will be installed faster with safety in mind. WHAT MAKES OUR MATS DIFFERENT There are some major differences in the way our TerraLam matting is constructed compared to traditional matting. The CLT technology uses an environmentally safe structural adhesive, rather than bolts. Bolted mats only transfer load at the location of the mechanical fasteners. Adhered CLT mats transfer the load evenly through every available square foot. Additionally, the adhesive provides a moisture barrier at each layer, protecting the mat from eventual rot and decay. Furthermore, TerraLam mats are constructed with Southern Yellow Pine Wood Fibre. Southern Yellow Pine is 30% harder than Douglas Fir which is the most common wood fiber used in the construction of traditional bolted mats. Our trusted TerraLam mats are engineered to be lighter and more durable; outperforming all other mats on the market. LONGER LASTING – LIGHTER – FASTER Engineered for maximum durability with wax sealer and glue lamination for twice the strength of conventional bolted mats and 5X stiffer – the mats will not deform if mishandled or dropped. Because they are significantly lighter than traditional mats, you can load more and faster, saving you time and money


Permit Details

CALGARY, AB – OBSIDIAN ENERGY LTD. (TSX: OBE), (OTCQX: OBELF) (“Obsidian Energy” or the “Company“) today announced an update to its 2020 capital spending plan due to the re-initiation of our Cardium development program.

Obsidian Energy will increase its 2020 capital program by $3.2 million to commence drilling activity on the first pad within our Central Alberta Willesden Green asset. “With the improvement in commodity prices, we are excited to return to drilling in our high-return Willesden Green asset base where we have had tremendous success since launching our fast-track program during the second half of 2018”, said Stephen Loukas, Obsidian Energy’s Interim President and CEO. “We will begin drilling on the three well pad in early December, and as we look forward into 2021, we continue to assess commodity prices against our significant portfolio of development opportunities and expect  to finalize the size and scope of our first half 2021 development program over the coming few weeks.”

In addition, the Company has completed all the necessary commercial agreements to assume ownership of over 15 km of pipelines in the Bigoray area. These pipelines, in concert with $2 million of upgrades to an Obsidian Energy processing facility (as referenced in our third quarter 2020 results), will restore 450 boe/d of high netback oil production which was taken off-line towards the end of the third quarter 2020 due to the permanent closure of a third party processing facility. This project will protect in excess of one million boe of proved developed producing (PDP) reserves. Upon completion of the project in the early portion of the first quarter of 2021, we anticipate the reduction in go-forward operating costs of $1 million per annum through elimination of related third-party processing fees.  Moreover, we are pursuing additional third-party processing volumes which would further improve project economics.
