RE:Did Surge hedge any 2015 volumes?With the low Canadian dollar Surge continues to realize WTI pricing of over CAD$91 per barrel1. Reduced differentials and the Company's strategic ongoing hedging programs, enhance and further protect Surge's monthly cash flows. Surge has over 40 percent of the Company's net crude oil production locked in at over C$100 per barrel through July, 2015.
Consequently, in 2015 (utilizing US$79.50 WTI per barrel pricing) Surge now anticipates delivering more than 17 percent growth in average daily production over 2014 (five percent growth in production per weighted average share), and paying the Company's current $0.60 per share annual dividend, while maintaining an all-in payout ratio3 of under 94 percent!
