According to the report:
“The past six weeks have been dynamic in Kodiak’s development. Kodiak reached significant milestones and is becoming a producing oil and gas company. In early June the Company added 18,000 more acres of land in the immediate vicinity of its core project. Five weeks ago, the Kodiak’s wholly owned subsidiary, Cougar Energy, entered into a strategic long-term financing agreement with a Swiss based private Energy Equity Fund to develop the Company’s core asset in north central Alberta. On July 14, Cougar successfully funded and completed the JV transaction with CREEnergy. This deal gives Kodiak’s Cougar Energy 100% control for up to 345,000 gross acres in north central Alberta. The initial leases are rights on a total of 46,000 gross acres for a lease term of ten years. As the project moves forward, additional leases will be identified and added to the joint venture. Additional progress was achieved early this week when Kodiak reached an agreement with a private company to acquire eleven producing wells and 21 low cost workovers or recompletion wells adjacent to the CREEnergy JV project. This new deal will deliver immediate cash flow to Kodiak’s Cougar. Based on historical well data from the Bison Lake and Peerless/Trout Lake areas, Cougar Energy could find up to 200 million recoverable barrels of oil and 1 Tcf of natural gas, translating into a project value of $1.5 billion or $15/share ($12/share if the new financing package is fully drawn and Kodiak retain a minimum of 81% ownership in Cougar Energy). Although these numbers must be validated by a third party engineering firm. At this time, capital costs in the province of Alberta are still low, making this project very lucrative.”
