Harmattan Acquisition Closed and Integrated
Closed Harmattan acquisition effective February 1, adding a complementary liquids-weighted asset that increases development inventory and long-term optionality. Final approvals were received from the Alberta Energy Regulator and the assets have been seamlessly integrated into existing operations.
Active Q1 Capital Program and Drilling Progress
Drilled eight new operated Cardium wells in Ferrier during Q1; 4 of 8 wells (50%) were completed and brought on production near the end of March with strong initial results. The remaining 4 completions were scheduled to start the following week with production expected in late May or early June, demonstrating continued execution of the 2026 capital program and guidance.
Strong Liquids Weighting in New Wells
Initial southern Ferrier wells are liquids-weighted at roughly 60% liquids; the next four wells are expected to start at approximately 40%–50% liquids weighting. Management intends to throttle gas rates to preserve and potentially increase liquids recovery given current gas price dynamics.
Operational Readiness and Future Drilling Optionality
Multiple pads are prepared to accelerate drilling should pricing and road conditions allow; management expects to make decisions on acceleration by the end of the month, indicating readiness to scale activity quickly if market conditions are favorable.
