PIE: Large, Focused Exposure to Alberta Basin Bakken

KIRK WILSON, Clarus Securities (08/18/2010)
"Technology advancements have made several massive, tight light oil resource plays highly economical and sought after. The Alberta Basin Bakken appears to be the next on that list. Primary is almost exclusively focused on that play in Montana. Significant, recent industry activity in this fairway, immediately north of Primary's land position, has pointed to an emerging light oil resource play that is analogous to the Williston Basin.

Large Contiguous Land Position
Primary has 110,000 contiguous acres (100% WI) in western Montana, which are favorably located 12 miles south of Bakken lands owned by Rosetta Resources, Newfield Exploration and Anschutz Oil and Gas where 16 wells have been permitted, spud and/or drilled. The company also has 20,000 contiguous acres (100% WI) in eastern Montana, located NW of the Elm Coulee Bakken field where 70 Mbbls. have been recovered.

Potential to Exceed Other Bakken Plays
Rosetta estimates 13–15 Mboe per section of OOIP in the Lodgepole, Bakken, Three Forks and Nisku formations based on three delineation wells. This compares favorably to the other Bakken plays."
