|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strategy | Place few, large bets on high-risk, high-potential exploration plays |
Place multiple, medium-size bets, on high-to-moderate-risk exploration plays |
Place multiple, medium to small bets on moderate / low risk in-field developments |
Place large-to-medium bets on purchases of proved reserves at market/premium rates |
| How value is created |
Exemplary G&G expertise and luck |
Outstanding interpretation of geological and geophysical data |
Access to deal flow in prolific producing plays; outstanding G&G and engineering expertise |
Access to large amounts of capital; outstanding engineering and financial expertise |
| Relative geological risk (chance of failure) |
High – drill based on seismic data only |
High / moderate – drill based on seismic and subsurface data |
Moderate / low – drill based on seismic and subsurface data and production history in nearby wells |
Low-to very low – many wells are producing |
| Relative value creation |
Low - get rich or go broke; not sustainable over long run |
Moderate - returns can be high, even at low prices, but must limit number of dry holes to payoff |
Moderate / high – repeat chance of success is high even at low prices; sustainable with access to deal flow |
Moderate / low – premiums paid for known reserves can offset returns due to reservoir risk and/or price decreases |
| Ignis' strategy is to earn explorer's returns with developer's risk |
