Altima's (ARH.V) Completes Workover Operations at Chambers 3-17-41-11 W5M



November 4, 2014 / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / November 4 2014 / Altima Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ARH / FSE: AKC / OTC Pink: ARSLF) announces that it has completed work-over operations on the UNE Chambers 3-17-41-11 W5M well.

Altima, through its joint venture with Acumen Energy Partners Inc. (refer to News Release August 6, 2014) completed work-over and flow-testing operations of the UNE Chambers 3-17-41-11 W5M well on October 30, 2014.

Rick Switzer, President and CEO of the Company reported that that existing packers and bridge plugs were recovered from the well bore and a total of six intervals were tested. Mr. Switzer commented: "After removing the packers and plugs to bottom, we were encouraged by the results from the first test intervals and made a decision to fracture stimulate an upper zone. The upper most formation was then isolated with a bridge plug set below the perforations and the interval was then fracture stimulated."

"Subsequent to the frac, much higher than anticipated bottom hole pressure was encountered. It was decided to leave the bridge plug in place and place the upper interval on production. At a later date when the bottom hole pressure has decreased, the Company will re-enter the well bore and remove the bridge plug to open up the bottom formations for commingled production. Although operations after the frac were very challenging, the Company is encouraged with the results."

Altima will now move forward in placing the well on production through the Conoco 9-4-41-11 W5M compressor station. Production is anticipated to commence within four to six weeks.

The Company's mostly contiguous land base at Chambers-Ferrier totals twenty-seven (27) sections (17,280 gross acres) with an approximate average working interest of 86% in 16 of the 27 sections and varying interests in eleven (11) wells.

The 14-35-41-11 W5M well is scheduled to be drilled in the first quarter of 2013.

Altima also announces that the Operator of the COPOL ET AL HZ CHAMBERS 14-15-41-11 W5M well has notified Altima of its intent to continue flow and build up testing operations, which are anticipated to commence within the next week, subject to weather conditions permitting access. Altima had previously reported a limited four day test completed over the period May 23 through May 27, 2012 (see News Release dated August 8, 2012, and for further reference, News Release April 12, 2012), with the well flowing varying rates of natural gas, associated condensate, and frac fluid. Downhole pressure recorders were run and the well shut-in. On June 21, 2012, the recorders were recovered. Altima holds a 30% WI in the subject well. Adverse seasonal conditions have prevented further operations to this time.

The Company''s mostly contiguous land base at Chambers-Ferrier totals twenty (20) sections (12,800 gross acres) with an approximate average working interest of 97.2% in 10 of the 20 sections and varying interests in eight (8) wells.

Lets take a second and go threw some of these news releases, And see were we fall into Conoco Phillips a 247 billion Dollar a year companies 2012 Objectives for Exploration & production of Liquids- rich High return resource plays.

On November 21, 2011 Altima released news stating they tied into Conoco pipe line and commenced production. I talked with one of my long time friends thats a power engineer in a local gas plant close to the action of Chambers and he said 40 to 50 bbl of condensate per day is above average, he was impressed and also stated that facilities are very strategically placed were they are and its because the longevity of wells in the area that produce for many many years.

Altima Resources

The 14-6-41-10W5M well commenced production on October 12, 2011 and continues to produce through a restricted choke as well production rates stabilize. Production for the first 12 days of November averaged 1.05MMcf/d and 41 bpd condensate at the well head. The well is produced through the ConocoPhillips Chambers gas gathering system to the Keyera deep cut plant in Strachan, Alberta for liquids removal and sales. The Company expects a minimum additional 15 barrels of liquids per 1MMcf obtained from the natural gas at the plant. Altima holds a 19.3545% interest in the subject well in addition to sections 5 and 6 Twp. 41 Range 10 W5M and the 6-5-41-10W5M well approximately one mile to the east.

On February 1, 2012 Altima announced to drill Horizontal test ( exploration )

Altima Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ARH)(PINKSHEETS:ARSLF)(FRANKFURT:AKC) announces that it has entered into an agreement to pool four sections of joint lands at Chambers-Ferrier and drill a horizontal test into the Upper Mannville formation. The well, COPOL ET AL HZ CHAMBERS 14-15-41-11 W5M, is scheduled to spud approximately mid February. Altima holds a 30% working interest in the well and pooled lands and an interest in a total of 24 sections in the Chambers-Ferrier area.

On February 13, 2012 Altima announced spud and 3D Seismic In vertical portion to be done.

Altima Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ARH)(PINK SHEETS:ARSLF)(FRANKFURT:AKC) reports it has been notified by the Operator that the COPOL ET AL HZ CHAMBERS 14-15-41-11 W5M well (reference News Release February 1, 2012) was spud on February 12, 2012. The well will evaluate certain formations defined by 3D seismic in the vertical portion of the well prior to drilling the horizontal leg, which is anticipated to be over 1,250 meters in length.

Altima's Chambers project takes advantage of changes to the Alberta Royalty Framework (ARF). The New Gas royalty rate is 5% for the first twelve (12) months of production up to 500 million cubic feet (MMCF). The "Natural Gas Deep Drilling Program" (NGDDP) is also of great benefit to Altima, with offset credits to royalty payments of $625.00/meter drilled for depths of 2,000-3,500 meters. The ARF provides for approximately a $750,000 reduction in royalty for a typical vertical and up to $1.2 Million for a typical horizontal Chambers-Ferrier well (100% interest). This approach facilitates the ability for investors to more quickly recover upfront capital investments.

The Company's mostly contiguous land base at Chambers-Ferrier totals twenty four (24) sections (15,360 gross acres) with an approximate average working interest of 82% in 17 of the 24 sections (100% in 11 sections) and varying interests in seven (7) wells.

On February 28, 2012 Altima announced progress. and go ahead with Horizontal leg to be drilled to 1260m (1.26KM ) NOT THE 1250m they anticipated prior to spud This means they found more formation than anticipated by a extra 10m must of been some pretty good 3D logs in vertical section. Formation top probably came in early 10m high wich in turn stands to hold great potential for extra 10m of production zone

Altima Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ARH)(PINKSHEETS:ARSLF)(FRANKFURT:AKC) announces that the COPOL ET AL HZ CHAMBERS 14-15-41-11 W5M well (reference News Release February 1 & 13, 2012) has completed the drilling and evaluation of the vertical pilot hole to a depth of 3,147 meters into the Upper Mannville formation. Management is pleased with the preliminary results of the pilot hole, which the Operator successfully completed under budget and ahead of schedule. The well will now be plugged back for the drilling of the horizontal leg, which is anticipated to be approximately 1,260 meters in length.

The Company's mostly contiguous land base at Chambers-Ferrier totals twenty four (24) sections (15,360 gross acres) with an approximate average working interest of 82% in 17 of the 24 sections (100% in 11 sections) and varying interests in seven (7) wells.

On December 2, 2011 Conoco Phillips announced.

ConocoPhillips Reports on Strategic Progress
2012 Capital Program and Share Repurchase Program Announced

HOUSTON, Dec. 2, 2011 - ConocoPhillips [NYSE:COP] today reported on the progress of its three-year strategic plan to improve returns and create value for its shareholders. The company also announced a 2012 capital program of $15.5 billion and a program to repurchase up to an additional $10 billion of the company’s common stock. The company additionally provided an update on its $15-20 billion asset divestiture program for 2010-2012.

“We have made strong progress on the plan set out in 2010 to enhance our business through a disciplined approach to capital investment, maintaining a strong balance sheet and growing distributions to our shareholders,” said Jim Mulva, chairman and chief executive officer. “We continue to optimize the portfolio, selling noncore holdings and allocating investments to the highest-returning projects to position our business for improved returns and greater value.”

The company is also on track to complete its plans to reposition into two leading energy companies during the second quarter of 2012. The downstream company, Phillips 66, will offer a unique approach to downstream integration, comprising segment-leading refining and marketing, midstream and chemicals businesses. ConocoPhillips will become one of the largest and most diverse global pure-play exploration and production companies.

“Our planned repositioning in 2012 will help us grow the value of these two companies for our shareholders and unlock the potential of our assets and employees,” said Mulva. “We believe this is the best way for us to succeed and be competitive in the long term.”

Capital Program
The 2012 capital program of $15.5 billion reflects an increase in Exploration and Production (E&P) segment expenditures. Approximately 90 percent will be in support of E&P, while the Refining and Marketing (R&M) segment represents 8 percent of 2012 planned expenditures.

“The 2012 capital program reflects our strategic emphasis on delivering value by investing in the most profitable opportunities,” said Mulva. “We expect competitive returns from our increased investments in sanctioned unconventional resource projects, such as our growing oil sands business in Canada, liquids-rich shale plays in the U.S. Lower 48, and APLNG venture in Australia. As our production profile adjusts over time to reflect our increased levels of investment in liquids plays and lower levels in North American conventional natural gas, we expect to continue increasing margins in the upstream business.”

The company also expects to deliver on its production and organic reserve replacement targets by continuing to convert its captured resource base to proved reserves, exploring high-impact prospects and building high-quality acreage positions for future development.

Exploration and Production
The 2012 capital program for E&P is $14.0 billion and includes $2.2 billion for worldwide exploration,
.4 billion of capitalized interest and
.7 billion for the company’s contributions to the FCCL business venture and loans to other affiliates.

Approximately 60 percent of the E&P capital program will be spent in North America. This represents an increase in the U.S. Lower 48 and Canada compared with prior years, reflecting improved market conditions, with additional emphasis on liquids-rich resource plays and high-return investments.

In the U.S. Lower 48, capital funding will be focused on the Eagle Ford and other liquids-rich plays in the Permian, Bakken and Barnett fields. The program also funds ongoing development in the San Juan Basin as well as the company’s contribution to the Marine Well Containment Company.
Spending in Canada will focus on existing steam-assisted gravity drainage oil sands projects and selective programs in western Canada conventional basins, primarily on high-graded resource plays and to maintain a substantial position for future development.
Capital spending in Alaska is expected to be slightly down compared to 2011 levels, and will be directed toward development of the existing Prudhoe Bay and Kuparuk fields, as well as fields on the Western North Slope.
In Europe, Asia Pacific and Africa, total spending is expected to be approximately 40 percent of the E&P capital program.

Within the Asia Pacific region, funds will be used for further development of the coalbed methane-to-LNG project being developed by the Australia Pacific LNG (APLNG) joint venture, as well as for the development of new fields offshore Malaysia and Indonesia.
In the North Sea, spending is planned for existing and new opportunities in the Greater Ekofisk Area, the Greater Britannia fields and development of the Jasmine and Clair Ridge projects.
The company will continue its focus on accessing, testing and appraising material opportunities in both conventional and non-conventional oil and gas plays. ConocoPhillips plans further appraisal of the Poseidon discovery in the Browse Basin, offshore Australia, and the Tiber and Shenandoah discoveries in the Gulf of Mexico. The company also plans to test material prospects in the Gulf of Mexico and Kazakhstan. Delineation of the company’s position in the Eagle Ford shale play will continue, as will pilot programs in shale plays in the Canadian Horn River Basin, Australia and Poland.

Refining and Marketing
The 2012 capital program for R&M is approximately $1.2 billion, with $1.0 billion for its U.S. businesses and the remaining
.2 billion for international operations. These funds will be used primarily for projects related to sustaining and improving the existing business with a focus on safety, regulatory compliance, efficiency and reliability.

Other
Consistent with prior years, the 2012 capital program for Corporate and all other segments is approximately
.3 billion, primarily for global information systems and corporate facilities.

Share Repurchase Program
For 2011, ConocoPhillips expects to repurchase approximately 155 million of its own shares, or 11 percent of shares outstanding, for $11 billion. This will bring the company’s total shares repurchased to 15 percent of the shares outstanding at the inception of the $15 billion repurchase program in 2010.

ConocoPhillips today announced its board of directors had approved a share repurchase program for up to a further $10 billion of common stock.

Share acquisitions will be made at management’s discretion at prevailing prices as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements, and subject to market conditions and other factors. Purchases may be increased, decreased or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Shares of stock repurchased under the plans are held as treasury shares.

Asset Divestiture Program
The company remains committed to its previously announced $15-20 billion asset divestiture program for 2010-2012. Through September 2011, the program has yielded proceeds of $8 billion. Recently announced agreements to sell the company’s interests in two U.S. pipeline companies, along with other sales already closed in the fourth quarter, will increase that total to approximately $10.5 billion.

Separately, ConocoPhillips also completed the sale of its interest in LUKOIL in early 2011, generating total proceeds of $9.5 billion in 2010 and 2011, which were largely used to fund share repurchases by the company.

“We have made significant progress toward optimizing our portfolio by divesting low-return, noncore assets,” said Mulva. “We are well-positioned to meet our three-year target and position the company for growth and enhanced rates of return in the future.”

Proceeds from 2012 asset sales are expected to be used primarily to fund share repurchases under the new program announced today.

“The execution of our strategic plan uniquely positions our businesses for growth and long-term value creation,” said Mulva. “We believe our commitment to capital discipline, portfolio optimization and increasing shareholder distributions will deliver the greatest value to our owners.”

ConocoPhillips is an integrated energy company with interests around the world. Headquartered in Houston, the company had approximately 29,700 employees, $155 billion of assets, and $247 billion of annualized revenues as of Sept. 30, 2011. For more information, go to www.conocophillips.com.

Now we wait and see what results will be and for the drill program to come out for the pooled 4 sections out of there 24 sections, Things are looking very very good at this stage and I would anticipate a summer drill program with Conoco to be announced. Couple this with Conoco's mandate for 2012 to increase exploration and production things could very well work into a buy out from one of the worlds biggest oil & gas producers. A 247 billion Dollar a year company

yup, but until I see more drills turning, I ain't about to get excited.

Someday the newly acquired territory needs to be explored, upon completion it would be nice if they find more of the same formations....it's a waiting game while oil and gas gets smacked in the gulf.

"2007 was a year of opportunity and significant milestones for Altima. In September, The Company concluded the Purchase from Golden Eagle Energy Inc. of all Golden Eagle assets in the Chambers area. This purchase increased Altima’s overall interest in the area from approximately 20% to 60%. Over the course of the year The Company brought its land base to 21 sections (13,440 acres) with an option on an additional 3 sections (1,920 acres). Construction of all weather access roads were completed to the 3-17 and 16-21 wells at a gross cost in excess of $1,000,000. These access routes will serve future drilling locations and pipeline right of ways. Pipelining was completed in late October from the 3-17 well into the Conoco gas gathering system. In November Altima reached a milestone in the Chambers operations by initiating natural gas and gas condensate sales from the 3-17-41-11 W5 well. During the third and fourth quarter, Altima drilled and completed an option well, located at 16-21-41-11 W5M, to its intended total vertical depth of 3,290 meters. The well was 19% under budget and reached total depth in 26 days from spud. Open-hole logging was performed, and production liner run and cemented to total depth. The 16-21 encountered numerous gas shows and formations to test. Subsequent to year end, Altima completed and tested the well at commercial rates. Plans to lay an approximate four-mile pipeline to the 16-21 well are under design with anticipated installation in the fall of 2008. This pipeline will be available for use by projected future wells in this part of the Company’s acreage.

The Chambers area contains significant potential to quickly grow cash flow and reserves. Over all, this play is growing toward an opportunity to drill a considerable number of wells over a large acreage position in this basin-centered gas play. "

Been looking at a few oil plays with oil in the toilet and maybe on the rebound here.

these guys seem to be after some nice properties.

"The Chambers area contains significant potential to quickly grow cash flow and reserves. Over all, this play is growing toward an opportunity to drill a considerable number of wells over a large acreage position in this basin-centered gas play. There are a limited number of plays today with potential to produce between 5 and 15 Bcf per well, as observed in wells just to the east of Chambers. To date at Chambers we have encountered numerous potentially productive intervals in conventional gas reservoirs including sands, shales, and carbonates"
