“I’m optimistic with regards to the recovery for the Canadian energy sector, with a dose of cautiousness thrown in,” said Grant Fagerheim, CEO of Whitecap Resources Ltd., in an interview.
His company ends 2020 awaiting the close of stock-swap deals to buy Calgary rivals TORC Oil & Gas Ltd. and NAL Resources Ltd., transactions expected to boost Whitecap’s average daily production to about 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Oil producers can make money from existing wells at current benchmark West Texas Intermediate prices of about US$45 per barrel, Fagerheim said, but it takes prices of $50 to $60 to make it worthwhile to spend money on exploration and development for new wells.
