Corporate Summary
North Peace has an early stage in-situ oil sands play in northern Alberta with an estimated 2 to 3.1 billion barrels of Discovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place. The Company has a 100% working interest in 86,400 acres of Crown oil sands leases in the Peace River area. The lands have the benefit of over 300 legacy logs and are surrounded by accessible oil and gas production infrastructure. The target Bluesky zone is a regional sand, deposited in a near shore marine environment at approximately 400 metres in depth. The initial focus area has approximately 22 sections with 10 to 16 metres of oil bearing thickness, technically sufficient to advance a 30,000 bbl/d commercial project. North Peace is currently advancing the development of its resource using a robust and proven in-situ thermal recovery process, Cyclic Steam Stimulation (“CSS”). A pilot project consisting initially of two horizontal CSS wells has been built and the Company is pleased to announce the facility is currently producing bitumen.
