加拿大石油和天然气生产商 Crescent Point Energy 今天宣布计划以 17 亿美元现金收购 Montney Shale 运营商 Spartan Delt Corp.。

该交易预计将为 Crescent Point 提供阿尔伯塔省 600 个钻探地点，占地 235,000 英亩。该公司补充说，其资产的资本计划相当于 20 多年的钻探活动。

目前新收购资产的产量约为 38,000 桶油当量/天，其中 55% 为石油和液体产量。预计，此次收购将使卡尔加里 Crescent Point 公司今年的预期产量从 142,000 桶油当量/天的上限提高到 160,000 至 166,000 桶油当量/天。

Montney 资产位于波动性较大的石油窗口中，与 Crescent Point 在 Kaybob Duvernay 油区的资产具有相似的资源特征，该公司于 2021 年以 7.07 亿美元从壳牌公司收购了该油区。

Crescent Point在接受路透社采访时表示，明年的重点是减少债务，这可能意味着出售其他资产，包括北达科他州巴肯页岩的资产。

Canadian oil and gas producer Crescent Point Energy announced today plans to acquire Montney Shale operator Spartan Delt Corp. for $1.7 billion in cash.

The deal is expected to hand Crescent Point an inventory of 600 drilling locations across 235,000 acres in Alberta. The company added that its capital plan for the asset amounts to over 20 years of drilling activity.

Current production from the newly acquired assets is around 38,000 BOE/D with 55% oil and liquids production. On a pro forma basis, the acquisition will lift Calgary-based Crescent Point’s expected production this year from an upper limit of 142,000 BOE/D to a range between 160,000 and 166,000 BOE/D.

The Montney assets are found in the volatile oil window and have similar resource characteristics to Crescent Point's assets in the Kaybob Duvernay play which it acquired from Shell for $707 million in 2021.

Crescent Point said in an interview with Reuters that its focus for the next year is now on reducing debt and that may mean selling other assets, including those in North Dakota’s Bakken Shale.
