Cequence Energy Ltd. Announces Operations Update

CALGARY, June 26, 2018 /CNW/ - Cequence Energy Ltd. (TSX: CQE) ("Cequence" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its recent operational activities. Cequence continues to see strong production from its Dunvegan oil play including the 3 gross (2 net) wells that came on production in April.  For the month of May, the 3 gross wells averaged a combined 601 bbl per operating day per well with all three wells above the Company's internal model of 300 bbls oil per day per well. 

Total corporate oil and liquids field estimates for the week ending June 24, 2018, was 2,300 bbl/d or 34% of the Company's 6,850 boe/d for the same period.  The strong liquids production during the period was achieved in spite of Cequence's 50% well located at 11-14 being off production since late May for temporary operational issues.  The 11-14 well is expected to be back online in July.

The Company's 100% well located at 15-4 has produced approximately 46,000 bbls of oil in 57 operating days and is currently flowing at approximately 1,200 bbl/d and 2 mmcf/d of natural gas. To achieve more consistent Dunvegan operating times in June, the Company has successfully begun to deliver a portion of the Dunvegan fluid volumes through its joint 50% infrastructure and facilities it has with KANATA Energy Group.  This joint infrastructure will continue to be an integral part of the future development of the Company's Dunvegan oil inventory.      

The Company has identified an additional 26.5 net Dunvegan drilling locations on its land.

Advisories

Boe Conversions: Barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") amounts have been calculated by using the conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (6 Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel of oil (1 bbl). Boe amounts may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf to 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalent of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
