RE:Why Cardium assets when in possession of more Cap.Eff one's? Well it is hard to disagree on the drilling economics.
It would obviously depend on the terms though. I would take some tier 1 inventory, low decline production or most anything at PDP if is next door.
buying some gassy production would also be counter cyclical for a change.
CNQ did pretty well buying production and then turning off the drill bit to get debt in line back in the day.
