Value Proposition
How can CDL increase your ROR by a modest 5% on a $100MM
investment or acquisition?
• Supply G&G knowledge on identified opportunities from
broad regional picture to detailed in-depth analysis
• Reduce risk and assess upside on targeted assets using deep
G&G expertise and area knowledge
• Benchmark drilling and completions practices for area of
interest using best-in-class big data
What’s the cost?
Probably less than 0.5%, ROR on the incremental capital
1,000%

Deliverables
Overview
-
Sample Geological Assessment
Hydrogeological Investigation
• Hydro-structural cross-section
• What are the implications for the play of interest?
-
Sample Geological Assessment
Pressure Regime Analysis
• Pressure vs elevation plot
• Is the area of interest over-, under- or normally
pressured.
-
Sample Geological Assessment
Reservoir Characterization
• Mineralogy and petrophysical analysis.
• Contrast within the section of interest.
• Impact on the reservoir within the area of interest.
-
Sample Production Assessment
Probabilistic Type Curve Development
• PTC`s developed using SPEE and USGS methodology
• Type curves can be normalized for a variety of parameters
• Profiles are the basis for economic evaluations
• Provides a basis of comparisons for opportunities
-
Regional EstimatedRecovery
• CDL has forecast EURs for each unconventional producer
• Highlights areas of best expected performance
-
Sample Production Assessment
Well Performance (1of 2)
• Comparative well performance
• Target company wells had median 12 month cumulative production
127% above the median for the area.
-
Sample Production Assessment
Well Performance(2 of 2)
• Comparison of IP(90) for all area operators.
• Majority of target company’s wells were in the top
quartile
-
Sample Production Assessment
By-Product Yields
METHODOLOGY• CDL conducted the Gas Liquids & Light Oil Study
(GLLO) in 2013
• GLLO examined analysis from 530,000 gas and 250,000 oil wells
to map liquid trends in 24 formations across Western Canada.
• Controlling factors are formation temperature, facies and
pressure.
• GLLO study data were extracted for area of interest
• Theoretical liquid yield was based on gas analysis and Gas
Processor’s Handbook calculation
• P50 value was used for the type curves and EURs
-
