Sayer Energy Advisors has been engaged to assist Asta Energy Ltd. (“Asta” or the “Company”) with the sale of its thermal oil interests located in the Kerrobert area of Saskatchewan (the “Property”).

The Property consists of a 100% working interest in approximately 15 LSDs over two sections of land which was leased for petroleum and natural gas rights in the Mannville Group.

The Property is prospective for thermal oil development in the Waseca Formation of the Upper Mannville Group.

Asta believes there is approximately 30 million barrels of thermal exploitable oil in place at Kerrobert. There is no current production and no liability associated with the Property.

Chapman estimates that, as of April 30, 2022, the Kerrobert property contained remaining proved plus probable reserves of 20.5 million barrels of heavy oil with an estimated net present value of $338.4 million using forecast pricing at a 10% discount.
