ANTERRA ENERGY ANNOUNCES 2015 - Q1 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
Anterra Energy Inc. has provided its financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Selected information presented below should be read in conjunction with the company's unaudited interim financial statements, and related management discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2015, available on SEDAR and on the company's website.
Operations:
-
Low crude oil prices realized during the first quarter of 2015 had a
major negative impact on the company's overall first-quarter 2015
performance. Production revenues, excluding the impact of risk
management commodity contracts, for the three months ended March 31,
2015, decreased 57 per cent to $2.5-million from $5.7-million for same period in
2014, primarily as a result of a 51-per-cent reduction in realized average
commodity prices. For the first quarter of 2015, realized commodity
prices averaged $43.72 per barrels of oil equivalent, compared with $88.78 per boe during the
first quarter of 2014.
-
As a result of quality adjustments, blending charges and trucking costs,
production from the company's Two Creek property became uneconomical at
the current low prices and was shut in at the beginning of March, 2015.
-
Production for the three months ended March 31, 2015, averaged 622 boe
per day, a decrease of 13 per cent compared with 715 boe per day for the first
quarter 2014. Quarter over quarter, first-quarter 2015 production decreased 10 per cent
from fourth-quarter 2014 average production of 691 boe per day.
-
First-quarter 2015 revenues from mid-stream activities increased 12.6 per cent to
$994,438 from $892,909 during the first quarter of 2014, primarily as a
result of increased oil emulsion throughput at the Breton facility. As a
result of increased revenues and lower direct operating costs, funds
generated by mid-stream operations (determined as revenues less direct
operating expenses) increased 31 per cent to $645,568 in the first quarter of
2015, as compared with $483,097 for the first quarter of 2014.
-
In addition to the contribution from mid-stream activities, overall
company operations were positively affected by risk management commodity
contracts, which resulted in a realized gain of $495,780 during the first
quarter of 2015.
