It's coming, feel it in my bones. Natural gas prices will begin to edge up as a result. Come January , I think US reserves will be low. I don't think oil price will react in same manner. I think our friends in Alberta have experienced a snow storm already.
Kerms Korner? Richard ribbed me on that also. It appears as though I'm becoming a junkie and hog of informational listing, doesn't it? I'm trying to catch up on postings I missed while my computer was down. I like this location and I think there are quite a few knowledgable people that comment here.
I believe we, as a group, might be a notch above most subject material topics. I've been wanting to post attention to our site on an assotment of newsgroup locations with objective to get Canadian oil industry people participating with us. I would also go after Canadian investment professionals. These people, along with investors like ourselves, would really round out a solid group in terms of perspective and information in regards to activity in the Canadian oilpatch.
As example, I would like to discuss hot areas of exploration in Western Providences of Canada, such as the Midale play Berkley Petroleum is involved with. Someone with access to information could tell us what other companies have land in close proxmitity to that current activity. I was turned off to exploration in Saskatchewan because I was seeing companies experiencing unexpected production declines with their shadow wells. Ballistic Energy is a good example and Richland Petroleum another. Berkley bucked the trend and went deeper in drilling depth with extraordinary results. So, who else is in position who can benefit from this success. People in the industry know, or can find out.
And then there are the financial people in the industry. I would like to ask someone how calculations are made to arrive at reserves based upon various discounted percentages, 15%, 20% etc.. This way I can put all companies on a level playing field. Anyone know how they arrive at their numbers.
I've been unable to contact these newsgroups because my computer e-mail program is screwed up. For those of you who use newsgroups, do us a favor and mention this site. Groups should include; sci.geo.petroleum, sci.geo.geology, sci.energy, misc.invest.canada, misc.invest.stocks and whatever you find that is subject orientated. Help! Would really appreciate it.
I'm in no way an authority, just a guy digging into a subject I'm gung-ho on. (An Ex-Marine's expression) I feel all of you desire to learn and know more of the industry and that's why I list all these postings. I just feel I should also be a contributor. I am very satisfied when people say thank you for what I volunteer and also approach the questions that I have. The ole give and take. What's a friend for if you can't use him/her. Someone said that to me years ago and it stuck with me.
Had to go back and change title of this reply. As usual, I got carried away with this subject. |
