What I'd Do to Sell the Virtues of Kakwa

Firstly I'd invest in some detailed reservoir analysis, more nit picky rather than difficult to show reservoir characteristics and production profiles. I'd show the ultimate recoveries and declines. So what if year one shows a big decline as long as the late life production is steady what's the big deal . Show ultimate recovery. From what I remember nest 2 wells are estimated to produce 900,000 bbls of condensate plus NGls and at least 3 bcf of gas I think this is what MHP is getting at. Then I would hire a US reservoir engineering consultant to compare Kakwa to the Permian. I think we are better but you have to prove. Then this comparison along with the type curves should be front and centre of the presentation. That said, Kakwa is break even at 40 dollars cdn, ok at 50, very good at 60 and stellar thereafter. If you believe Eric Nutall and I give a bull run an even chance of lasting five years then the Arx and Kawkwa is a cash machine. The bottomline is human nature is such that if you don't give all the facts people assume something is wrong.

shaleguy my thesis for why they are doing what they are doing is that they can't grow production at kakwa at the same time they have a massive financial commitement in NE BC on the horizon. they have this big piece of land out there and if they never develop it, their decision to acquire and dilineate that land would be in question. so they will milk kakwa for cash, and reinvest in NE BC.

That's what they are doing for sure and we don't have the inside knowledge as to why. Based on what I believe, and I could be way off base, they aren't spending that much out of 4b of revenue ( 75 million) this year for delineation which you correctly point it has to be delineated. It would be foolish not to do so. But last I looked at the presentation Kakwa wasn't there. Sooooo ...more

shaleguy. about NE BC...take a look at page 25 of the current presentation. it's revealing.  They plan to spend $600m on the project (I believe the bulk of it is supposed to be in 2023-2024) and don't expect any free cash flow from the project until YEAR 4 of the plan. They will be creating a huge free cash flow Defecit from this project for two full years. Since they don't want ...more
