Client/Job Profile

In support of a new public offering in the U.S., we evaluated the oil and gas reserves of a mid-size Canadian company.

We evaluated the U.S. based oil and gas and coalbed methane assets of a British company in support of a new listing on the London Stock Exchange, including recommendations on future drilling plans.

We completed the evaluation of a company's oil and gas properties in Colombia and the U.S. in support of a private placement in Europe. Ongoing work included the implementation of further field development and advice on the securing of new acreage in Colombia.

Leading to the successful development of undrilled properties and the emergence of the company from bankruptcy, we acted as an expert witness in support of the reorganization of a major U.S. gas producer.

We were appointed to an arbitration panel to settle a contract dispute on the terms of a third party drilling contract.

We performed an evaluation and risk assessment of deep water Gulf of Mexico exploration blocks which formed the basis for negotiation of terms.
