Nexstar Energy Ltd. may be tiny, but the micro-junior has triggered a tight oil play in Alberta's Pembina oilfield that has geological parallels with the Bakken success story in southeastern Saskatchewan. "We're focused on oil-bearing portions of the Pembina Cardium [formation] that lacked sufficient permeability to be of much interest when this field was originally developed with vertical wells," says Peter Carwardine, Nexstar's president and CEO. "Our drilling indicates that these prospects can now be profitably exploited through multi-stage fracturing of horizontal wells."
