Special Report:
Company Name: Castleguard Energy, Inc. Stock Symbol: MOAT (OTC:BB) Status: FULLY REPORTING COMPANY Industry: Oil Outstanding Shares: 14,750,626 shares Float: Approx. 11 million shares Available free trading stock: Approx. 4 million shares
THE COMPANY:
Castleguard Energy, Inc. ("MOAT") is an independent energy company engaged in (a) the exploration, acquisition, development, exploitation and operation of crude oil and natural gas properties; and (b) in the production of crude oil and natural gas in North America. The Company's activities are conducted principally in the States of Texas and Louisiana.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's business strategy has been to increase its reserves, cash flow and underlying net asset value through a combination of acquisition activities and of exploration and development. To date, the Company's activities have been focused on properties located in Texas and Louisiana. However, the Company intends to diversify its property portfolio in terms of production, location and operating characteristics.
COMPANY OBJECTIVE
MOAT's main objective is to acquire and develop producing crude oil and natural gas properties that contain the potential for exploitation and development, thus creating additional profits and shareholder value.
COMPANY PLAN
The Company seeks to realize the potential in such acquisitions through workovers, recompletions, secondary recovery operations and the drilling of development wells. As a part of its strategy, MOAT will attempt to acquire and develop producing crude oil and natural gas properties in areas where it has working knowledge and operating expertise. Additionally MOAT is currently acquiring leases in North Texas to drill two development wells for several Pennsylvania and Pre Pennsylvania reservoirs.
Also in North Texas, MOAT is participating in a 30 square mile 3-D seismic shoot to evaluate shallow oil potential in numerous reservoirs above 3500 feet. This seismic shoot could yield multiple prospects in a very large geographic area. Acquisition of all quality 2-D seismic data indicate several excellent definable prospect areas. Very shallow depths and reasonable drilling and completion costs make this an area excellent for return on investment.
GROWTH STRATEGY
MOAT intends to continue its growth strategy emphasizing reserve additions through its acquisition efforts. The Company believes that its ability to quickly and effectively evaluate and complete its acquisitions projects allows it to better take advantage of acquisition opportunities. Thus, MOAT's ability to decrease the amount of time required to take advantage of the new producing properties gives it an edge over its closer competitors.
PARTICIPATION IN PARTNERSHIPS
Although MOAT intends to devote most of its resources to acquisitions and the exploitation and development of the producing properties acquired, it also plans to selectively participate in the exploration of new reserves of crude oil and natural gas. The Company has no plans to participate in wildcat exploration activities and intends to develop prospects internally and to participate with industry partners in prospects generated by other parties in its exploration activities. See list of recent acquisitions, below.
MOAT intents to periodically evaluate, and if appropriate, sell, certain of its producing properties. MOAT believes such sales will enable it to maintain financial flexibility, reduce overhead and costs, and will be able to apply the proceeds from such sales to activities with potentially higher investment return.
