Pipeline Project Details
Aspenleaf Energy #20,849 total 1.6KM Pipeline to pipeline
Aspenleaf Energy Limited is a private oil and gas exploration and production company that is pursuing an acquisition and exploitation strategy in western Canada. The company is focused on light oil and liquids-rich gas opportunities and is led by a team of seasoned industry professionals with extensive acquisition and operations experience.
Spirit River Formation contains important gas reservoirs in Alberta’s Deep Basin. The productive Falher Member consists of non-marine clastics and coals south of the Elmworth field. The Spirit River Formation is a stratigraphical unit of middle Albian age in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. It takes the name from the Spirit River, and was first described in Imperial Oil Spirit River No. 1 well by Badgley in 1952.
Aspenleaf is led and run by five highly accomplished oil and gas professionals who have more than 100 years of collective experience developing Western Canadian oil and gas properties into sustainable and profitable businesses. Aspenleaf is backed financially by ARC Financial Corp. and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan – institutions with a strong track record of successful oil and gas investment.
Aspenleaf Energy Limited announced in 2018 the completion of the acquisition of NEP Canada ULC (“NEP Canada”), a private, light oil producer with operations focused in the Leduc/Woodbend region.
SPARTAN DELTA CORP. Permit #62,658 – 1.44KM Satellite to pipeline
Spartan Delta is a differentiated energy company whose ESG-focused culture is centered on generating sustainable free cash flow through oil and gas exploration and development. Building on its existing high-quality, low-decline operated production in the heart of the Alberta Deep Basin, Spartan intends to continue acquiring undervalued diversified assets that can be restructured, optimized and rebranded, financially or operationally, yielding accretion to shareholder value. With excess infrastructure capacity, the Company is well positioned to continue pursuing immediate production optimization and responsible future growth.
Deep Basin assets provide short-cycle development opportunities with high return potential. The Elmworth gas field is located within the Deep basin near Grande Prairie, Alberta (Fig. 1). The Deep basin covers about 26,000 sq miles and appears to contain an enormous amount of gas in different-quality rocks. Masters1 has estimated the Deep basin could contain more than 400 Tcf of gas, recoverable at various levels of price and technology.
Cardium Play has been one of the largest oil fields in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin with production history of almost six decades. … The areas with highest liquid content are Lochend and East Pembina, the highest initial production is typically encountered in Lochend, Willesden Green and Ferrier areas.
Spartan Delta Corp. in 2021 announce the closing of acquisition of Velvet Energy Ltd. (“Velvet”), a privately held light-oil Montney producer with operations primarily in the Gold Creek, Karr and Pouce Coupe areas of northwest Alberta (the “Velvet Assets”).
OBSIDIAN ENERGY Permit #34260 – 3.87KM Well to satellite
Obsidian Energy Ltd. (TSX: OBE) (NYSE: OBE) is an intermediate-sized oil and gas producer with a well-balanced portfolio of high-quality assets producing roughly 30,000 boe per day. These assets, and the organization we have crafted around them, provide the right platform to deliver bottom-line results, and an entrepreneurial spirit that will allow us to succeed in this evolving industry.

Peace River Area – The Company resumed development drilling in our Peace River asset in conjunction with our recent proposed acquisition (see “Highlights Subsequent to the Quarter”) combined with the strong commodity price environment. Four infill development wells are planned for the fourth quarter, which are expected to be on stream by the end of January 2022.
PROP: As part our 2021 development program, the Company is returning to drilling in our Peace River asset in the fourth quarter of 2021 with a four-well program (at 100 percent working interest post Acquisition). These wells target the Bluesky formation from our existing pads: three wells at the 6-31 pad and one at the 14-25 pad. Production from the four wells is expected to be on stream by the end of January 2022.
NUVISTA ENERGY LTD. Permit #62,558 – Compressor station to well 2KM
NuVista is an oil and natural gas company actively engaged in the exploration for, and the development and production of, oil and natural gas reserves in Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. NuVista’s primary focus is on the scalable and repeatable condensate-rich Montney formation in the Wapiti area of the Alberta Deep Basin. This play has the potential to create significant shareholder value due to the high-value condensate volumes associated with the natural gas production and the large scope of this resource play.
Wapiti
Activity in the Greater Wapiti area has been directed to maintaining flat production levels while generating material free cash flow to fund the ramp up in Pipestone and contribute to net debt reduction.
Pipestone
Activity in Pipestone is proceeding well and exceeding expectations. Production in the quarter averaged 24,000 Boe/d (34% condensate), approximately flat from the prior quarter, and has already begun to ramp up through the fourth quarter. Well costs, productivity and cycle times are all continuing to improve. Our latest 6-well pad to come on production (Pipestone Pad #6) was drilled and completed for costs of $830/Hz meter and $420/Tonne of sand, with total drill, complete, equipping and tie-in (“DCET”) costs which averaged $5.6 million per well.
