Bakken ist eines der größten Ölvorkommen des Globus.
Grenzübergreifend USA / Kanada..
PBG ist hier hoch investiert, was eine langfristige Absicherung bedeuten sollte.
"In just over one year, the Canadian Business Unit has built a platform
of sustainable and significant growth for many years to come. Petrobank
is one of the most active players in the emerging Bakken oil light play
in southeast Saskatchewan. Active drilling programs by Petrobank and
others continue to expand the absolute size of the recoverable
oil-in-place from this large Bakken resource. With further delineation
through drilling, we expect that this resource play will rank as one of
the biggest light oil developments in the history of the Western
Canadian Sedimentary Basin...."
"Our
independent reserve evaluators, Sproule, have included 171 future
drilling locations in the 3P reports compared to our estimated
inventory of over 624 net locations. Our activity levels are expected
to be considerably higher than those reflected in our reserve
evaluation for the foreseeable future. These additional locations,
coupled with ongoing technology enhancements and secondary recovery
projects, are expected lead to significant future upside.
The
economics are attractive in the Bakken play. At least four wells per
section can be drilled. Drilling and completion costs are approximately
$1.7 million per well, and according to our independent reserve
evaluator, proved plus probable reserves are 100,000 barrels of oil per
well, representing less than 10 percent recovery of original
oil-in-place, are well below our internal estimates of well potential.
This leaves considerable upside potential for improved recoveries....."
