Oklahoma Properties:
Osage Exploration's primary target in Oklahoma is the serendipitously named Osage section of the Mississippian aged carbonate formation that lies between the Pennsylvanian and Devonian aged rocks. The Mississippian is a fractured carbonate that has been historically drilled vertically in many areas of Oklahoma, most notably in the Sooner Trend.
With the highly developed techniques of horizontal drilling with multi-staged massive frac technology, the Mississippian appears to be a prolific producer in many parts of Oklahoma. Osage is focused on an area on the east side of the Nemaha Ridge where there is a significant amount of natural regional fracturing that we believe will enhance recoveries of oil.
The west side of the Nemaha Ridge has been extensively drilled for the Mississippian, as this was the fairway of the Sooner Trend. We believe for this reason that the western flank of the Ridge has been somewhat pressure depleted.
Because the Mississippian section is not as thick on the eastern side of the Nemaha, the drilling tended to be primarily on shallower or deeper horizons. We have targeted the eastern side of the Nemaha Ridge because the rock quality is excellent, and the Mississippian has not been pressure depleted because of far less historical drilling.
The support for our thesis comes from the well logs that we have evaluated to localize our land acquisition efforts. We have evaluated hundreds of Mississippi penetrations in and around our area, as well as compared those logs to the logs in the other parts of Oklahoma where the horizontal Miss is being successfully drilled now.
Given all the above, we believe that the focus going forward will be economics. Those familiar with the Bakken, Marcellus, Haynesville, or Eagle Ford know that land prices can be as high as $5000 to $9000 per acre with drilling costs of $5 million to $10 million per well. Our acquisition price is a fractionof these numbers and we believe that well costs could be below $3 million.
According to a recent inteview with Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc., “First of all, I should point out that from an investor's point of view, it is important not to overlook Osage's Colombian assets. Even mid last year, when our market capitalization was under $1,000,000, we enjoyed between $150,000 and $200,000 a month in revenue from our Colombian operations. That is a case where the investors overlooked our assets and cash flows and as a consequence the stock was severely undervalued for a long period of time. Investors must not be fooled by what the markets tell them, because markets range from severely undervaluing assets to severely overvaluing assets and everything in between. Research and analysis has always been the key for investment performance.
Our Colombian assets give us a head and shoulders advantage over our micro-cap oil and gas peers, called positive cash flow. That in turn gives us the ability to prospect for new discoveries without having to worry about where our next dollar is coming from, which leads me to the next topic. While we could not be more excited about our Horizontal Mississippian acreage, we are already well advanced in evaluating our next potential project. The next project that we take on will certainly be in the US, hopefully with similar economics to our current project. At some point in the near future however, we plan another exploration play in Colombia because we have the infrastructure already in place. We have a Colombian subsidiary, which is required by Colombian law; we also have probably the best oil and gas accounting firm and one of the very best legal firms in all of Colombia. We have extensive knowledge about how the Colombian oil and gas regulatory agencies work; we have partners and former partners that are deeply involved in Colombia so that we have access to projects with which we already have familiarity.”
