2013 GUIDANCE
LGX expects to spend $7.6 million in 2013 focused on light oil development with the majority of capital (78 percent) directed to drilling, completions and tie-ins on the Alberta Bakken play. The capital spending is distributed as follows: drilling, completions and tie-ins - $5.4 million; re-completions - $1.5 million; land and seismic - $0.5 million and other - $0.2 million.
LGX is planning to drill 2 gross (1.6 net) wells in 2013, targeting high quality light oil on the Alberta Bakken play. No capital has been budgeted for acquisitions, although the Company continues to evaluate new opportunities, both within and beyond its core areas.
LGX anticipates a 2013 average production rate and exit rate of 900 Boe per day. The operational parameters used in the budget are as follows:
- Exit Production - 900 Boe per day (72 percent light oil and NGL)
- Average Production - 900 Boe per day (69 percent light oil and NGL)
- Royalty Rate - 17 percent
- Operating Costs - $19.50 per Boe
- Transportation Costs - $2.25 per Boe
- Common Shares Outstanding (basic, weighted average) - 88.7 million
The reader is cautioned that the above production estimates include risked production additions resulting from exploration drilling. When the results of this drilling are known with greater certainty, the production estimates above will be revised accordingly.
