Valkyrie Resources LLC has retained Eagle River Energy Advisors in connection with the sale of its working interest in 11 operated, 1280-acre HBP DSUs in Divide County, N.D. to an operator committing to a three-well 2023 drilling and completion program.
For oil, gas, and water takeaway mid-stream systems, infrastructure is already in place. The assets include ~206 Net BOEPD and ~$4 MM of LTM net cash flow, and ~10,952 net HBP acres. A significant upside can be realized from modern completions across this asset. For example, the AABERG 8-5N-1H well located 162-100, Sec. 5 & 8, is a ~10,000-foot lateral completed with a modest 3.85MM lbs. of total proppant (385 lbs. per lateral foot). The well has CUMed 274,000 BO and has 600,000 BO EUR, again, from a very modest completion design. Eagle River believes well costs in the $6.5MM range is achievable for drilling and completion costs based on a review of the area operator’s recent AFEs. Single well economics are strong, with 3.8x ROI and 52% IRR at current oil prices.
Asset highlights:
- Total Investment Opportunity: ~$168 MM
- Operated DSU's: 11
- Target Formation: Upper Three Forks / Middle Bakken
- Average WI / (8/8) NRI: 78.2% / ~80%
- Single Well Economics: 52% IRR / 3.8x ROI
- Type Curve EUR: 500 MBO
- Net Acres: 10,952 Total Net Acres (HBP)
- Net Production: ~206 Net BOEPD
- LTM Net Cash Flow (Jan-Dec. 22): ~$4 MM
