==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Good acreage position in Oklahoma 2P reserves of 5.1mmboe is meaningful if commercial
==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- Continue to review acquisition opportunities Primary driver is shareholder wealth creation
==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [17 x 11] intentionally omitted <==
Project needs several wells to determine commerciality but needs oil price to recover
Look at adding local infrastructure if available that would enhance value of project
==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [17 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
-
Looking at both upstream and downstream opportunities as well as new energy technologies and forms
-
Will consider non energy related opportunities only if compelling
