The October data is out for the best oil and gas wells in Canada. As always, we use calendar day production metrics so these are real volumes produced in the month. The list of the top 15 liquids wells (oil + condensate) and top 15 natural gas wells based on production from the month of October is below. You can also click on the links below to view the top 15 wells all on one map, or click on the UWIs individually to see their location and production profiles on Petro Ninja. TOP 15 OIL [Read more]

Cenovus to sell Clearwater exploration land to Spur Petroleum
BOE Report readers with a keen eye on our AER Licence Transfers page will note on November 2nd that Cenovus filed an application with the AER to transfer 99 wells over to Spur Petroleum. These are predominantly vertical stratigraphic wells with little to no current production, with the intention here that Spur Petroleum is acquiring the mineral rights in the affected sections. We have gone ahead and mapped the affected locations on Petro Ninja to get a sense of where these lands are in relation [Read more]
Drilling Productivity Trends in the U.S.
The E.I.A. published its monthly drilling productivity report on October 17. The link to the full report is here, with all of the charts below from the report. The charts below show the estimated data for November 2022. I have pulled out some of the charts from the report that are worth commenting on: New well production per rig is down YoY for both oil and natural gas, suggesting that each incremental new rig is not producing oil or gas as efficiently as it was at this point [Read more]
TOP WELL REPORT – Who drilled August’s top producing wells?
We are introducing a new monthly feature here to our BOE Report readers that will highlight some of the top wells drilled in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), based on recent production that we can see in the public domain. Our data is supplied by Petro Ninja. Fresh off of confidential status, we can now see production volumes for August 2022 across the WCSB. Below is a table of the top 15 liquids wells (oil + condensate), as well as the top 15 natural gas wells. Note that we use [Read more]
Coelacanth Energy Inc. – A sneak peek
Vermilion Energy Inc. announced overnight that its now owns 16.3% of Coelacanth Energy Inc., or about $49.2 MM worth based on today’s trading prices for Coelacanth (CEI.v).

Given the moratorium on new well licenses in NE BC for most of the past year and change, we can’t see any well [Read more]
