Company Ready to Gear up Production and Revenues
Significant progress funding round
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 1, 2022) - Green Flame Energy ("Green Flame", or "the Company") today provided a corporate update for investors.
Dr. David Kahn, CEO, commented, "We are ready to go. The reserves in our field, the incredible upside potential through CO2-driven enhanced oil recovery, the in-place infrastructure and the developed nature of our wells means that, with the current funding, we will be able to drive rapid growth of revenues and eventually cash flows. This is a unique property where we are leveraging over $20MM invested to date in a production ready infrastructure with significant expansion potential. We look forward to getting going and to informing investors of our progress."
The Company
Green Flame is an exciting, Oil project in Trinidad & Tobago, the third most prosperous country in the Americas as measured by GDP per capita. To date, approximately $20 million was invested in the Company's property, resulting in 110 existing wells that are production ready.
The project is located in a region that has fully developed infrastructure for oil & gas operations, including an operational CO2 pipeline (Texaco). Access to low-cost CO2 through the Texaco pipeline will enable the Company to implement enhance oil recovery technologies, enabling further expansion of production capacity, while making operations carbon neutral. Conversion of the productive wells to EOR will be a rapid and low-cost process with very significant returns through the increased output per well.
Ready to go - offtake assured
The property is ready for the next stage of its development. The required equipment is in place, conversion of the wells to EOR through CO2 injection is a straightforward process that will require approximately 30 days to complete. The tie in to the nearby oil pipeline is complete, enabling the Company to transport its oil to the point of sale. A take-off agreement is in place for all production coming from the property.
EOR and ESG ready - massive ramp up in production while generating carbon credits
With a nearby gas fired power station and infrastructure in place through a pipeline, the Company has secured an initial 10 million cubic feet of CO2 per day to drive its EOR program. Upon injection into the wells, intended to increase production, approximately 2/3rds of the CO2 is sequestered underground, permanently. As the Company will operate a closed loop system, the remaining 33% will be recovered and reinjected into the wells, thereby approaching 100% sequestration. Through the Company's ties to a carbon trading platform, Green Flame anticipates generating additional income through the generation of credits.
Steven Byle, CTO, commented, "Not only will utilizing EOR very significantly increase production on our property, the sale carbon credits, generated through sequestration, will go straight to our bottom line, further enhancing the returns on this project."
Initial testing and simulations have shown that the flow rate of the wells can be increased through EOR from the current ~2 bbpd to up to ~100 bbpd. Such an increase in production at today's oil prices represents a very rapid acceleration of revenues and eventually free cash flows. With reserves in place, the Company anticipates achieving significantly increased flow rates for the foreseeable future. An updated reserves report will be available shortly, providing an indication as to the overall size of the field and its potential for production.
Current Funding
The Company is currently raising funds to expand its operations and drive rapid growth of revenues and cash flows. To this end, management hosted a webinar to inform interested investors on the capabilities, assets and outlook for the Company. With a significant portion of the targeted $3MM secured, the Company still has some limited availability in the current placement.
