Duvernay shows promise, say producers

摘要

Producers with property in the Duvernay shale play in Alberta are encouraged by what they're seeing so far, but it's still in its early stages of development, they caution. Robert Broen, vice-president of the shale division with Talisman Energy Inc., told the TD Securities Calgary Energy Conference that early industry results have been encouraging. The company has a land position of 360,000 net acres and plans to have six wells drilled by the end of 2012. Three are planned for the North Duvernay and three in the South Duvernay.
