IN THE NEWS / Forward sale not related to takeover, Blue Range says

Financial Post

Blue Range Resource Corp. said yesterday the forward sale of 12.5% of its natural gas production is not meant to make the company look "better or worse" while it attempts to fend off a hostile takeover bid from a rival company.

Gordon Ironside, president of the mid-sized natural gas firm, said the five-year sales agreement with the Canadian unit of Enron Corp. has been in the making for some time and is part of the company's normal course of business.

Blue Range is fighting a hostile takeover bid from smaller oil industry competitor Big Bear Exploration Ltd.

Under the sales agreement, Blue Range has sold 15 million cubic feet a day of natural gas from northeastern British Columbia at $2.57 per thousand cubic feet.

Last week, Big Bear launched a hostile $194-million stock offer for Blue Range, plus the assumption of $105-million in debt.
