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.

As part of the investment in the Clearwater, Tamarack plans to direct approximately $25 million into the Nipisi waterflood pilot program.

Our first quarter winter drilling program is currently underway with the anticipation of running a four-rig program that will see 27 net wells drilled in Nipisi and the Southern Clearwater inclusive of four injection wells in our Nipsi waterflood project.

Charlie Lake
Approximately 30% of our program will be directed to the Charlie Lake program with 14 (13.7 net) wells planned to be drilled and 15.7 net brought on stream where we forecast stable production and significant free funds flow(1) generation from the asset.

Through disciplined execution, Bonterra has continued to control operating costs, general and administrative expenses and adjust capital levels required for drilling, completions and infrastructure in the context of the commodity price environment. By utilizing pad drilling from sites with existing infrastructure, achieving fewer drilling days per well, better efficiencies in the field and general service cost reductions, Bonterra has successfully grown reserves with attractive capital efficiencies. Currently, around 90 percent of Bonterra’s natural gas production is derived from the solution gas that is present within oil wells which will help reduce transportation curtailments associated with interruptible service, therefore decreasing restrictions on oil production.
