CALGARY, Jan. 18, 2016 /CNW/ – Connacher Oil and Gas Limited (CLC – TSX; “Connacher” or the “Company”) announces that in light of exceptionally low commodity prices, the Company plans to further reduce production at Great Divide.
Average production for the month of January is expected to be 7,000 to 8,000 barrels per day. February and March production is expected to be 3,000 to 4,000 barrels per day. Both plants at Great Divide will remain operating the majority of this time and equipment maintenance is ongoing.
Based on field estimates, Connacher’s Great Divide production for Q4 2015 averaged approximately 13,900 barrels per day. Connacher ended the year with a $47.2 million cash position and plans to actively maximize liquidity through this challenging environment.
